I've only played TS files so far, but have found the slightest pause in the
stream, such as changing files, will cause CinemaSix to drop back to the
menu.  It also does this if you hit the pause on the remote for more than a
few seconds, or if you pause VLC.   I don't know if this 'timeout' is
something Sujal is doing or something inherent in the HD1000.  I've posted a
message to Sujal to see what he has to say.  Hopefully it is something he
can control.

I started playing with VLC to get around the Lip Sync problem. Am I doing
something stupid ?? If I tell vlc to stream 1.vob,  2.vob etc vlc plays it
fine, but CinemaSix drops back to the menu on file change.

I have a wireless laptop in my home theater (oh, ok, my tv room) and I am
running XP's remote desktop on the laptop and the computer that is running
vlc.  Using the remote desktop I can select the video I want to watch and,
in most cases, move freely to any position in that video by moving vlc's
slider.  The resulting video and AC-3 audio are excellent.  My only
remaining problem (other than the occasional crash, etc.), is the fact that
pause doesn't work for more than a few seconds.  For the first time since
buying my HD1000 I can truly enjoy movies served from the computer.  Many
thanks to Sujal for the hard work that made this day possible!
