    using the WL-HDD as a wireless file server for ipad

    Hello,
    I recently bought a WL-HDD and am hoping to use it as a wireless fileserver to stream AVI movies directly to an ipad using the Ipad app VLC streamer.

    VLC streamer
    lets you stream movies from a computer but i have been struggling to configure the WL-HDD to do the same.

    Has anyone on here done this before?
    Im presuming i need to flash to Olegs firmware first, what else needs to be done after that?

    Thanks in advance.

    hi bo
    have you jailbroken your ipad?
    i did that and installed xbmc for ios
    then i configured the wl-hdd's built-in samba
    and access video files stored on wl-hdd from xbmc
    both avi files and mkv files working for me
    standard-definition files work flawlessly
    720P files will play but are a little bit laggy especially the hi-bitrate ones
    for xbmc installation guide do some googling using key word"xbmc ios"
    hope this will help
