It doesn't look like I'll need it, I'm already using Orb, which transfers video, music, and pictures to your xbox 360, PS3, wii, and basically any other device that can access the internet.

I use TVersity which does all that, plus re-encodes it on the fly if its needed.
It's also insanly faster than Windows Media Player 11 media sharing

I use TVersity

That works on the wii right?

There may be a way using the web browser as long as you PC is on your network, but I've never tried it, and may be a bit complicated.
Works like a cinch for PS3 and 360 though

The easiest way to watch videos on your wii is to use the homebrew called MPlayer which supports many codecs, and even external hard drives.
So throw all you movies on a external hard drive, connect it to you wii, and watch videos instantly.

Great I already have the Mplayer, but does it support SD cards?

I'm guessing it does, because the wii doesn't read the USB sticks fom the ports on the back. I wonder what those are for anyway...

Sorry for going off topic but those can be used to charge i-pods and you can use keyboards.

The wii can read those. Nintendo just doesn't want it to right now. Luckily, some Homebrew like Mplayer does use it (external hard drives, usb keys) so it is possible.
Besides that, you can use them for as mentioned, a power source, or the USB LAN adapter for Ethernet cables.

I haven't tried it out, but it says it does. Just make sure its the newest one
