hi well its pretty much what the title says, I've been using Tversity for all my media server needs, ie transcoding and streaming videos to my xbox 360 and to my partners laptop over the home network, now what i was wondering was can i do similar but over the internet, now tversity doesn't support online streaming but i do remember an advertisement on television for windows 7 showing something similar, where a teenager was abroad and he could access media on his home pc.

For the life of me i can't find what I am looking for an just wondered if anyone has come across the software to do what I am asking.

Basically i want to watch a few movies while I am in work, upload speed shouldn't be an issue as I've got 100mbit broadband and my pc's spec is upto scratch.

Before anyone complains this is nothing todo with piracy or such, there all movies which i own and just want the option to watch them in work :)

thanks for any help
