What's the best way to stream videos from a PC to a Front Row enabled iMac? Both the PC and the iMac are on my home network.

Thanks

The easiest (and possibly only) way would be to import the videos into iTunes on the PC and turn on sharing. Then in Front Row, you could navigate to Shared Videos.

Otherwise, create a windows (SMB) Share. And access that from your mac.

Although importing into itunes is probable easiest
I free'd my mind... now it won't come back.
