<div>Is there a guide out there to setting this up? I have never heard of this, and would love to stream netflix to my mythbox. I do have 1 windows box in my house (runs our skype phone in/out, couldn't get the usb to phone attapter to work with good sound quality in linux, so used one of my laptop's windows licenses for it) so I could run this PlayON thing on that right? Does the PlayOn take a lot of processing power? Is it free? Do I have to set up something specific in myth to watch this stream (I have a revo 1600 for 1 frotnend, a AppleTV for mysecond (can't wait for CrystalHD since no VDPAU))? And do I have to control the stream through like xvnc on my laptop, or will the remote be able to send commands to the PlayON server?</div>
