I'll shortly be taking delivery of a Mac Mini, which I'll be connecting up to external hard drives in USB2 enclosures. I'd like to be able to access video files stored on those drives using my powerbook, plugged into my TV, linking directly to the mounted volumes on my Mini over my Airport Extreme network.

I assume I'm going to need some kind of streaming software if I want to have a smooth connection. Anyone have any recommendations? I'll be wanting to access assorted mpeg and divx files.
