I've recently put together a new computer which I intend you also use for serving up media to a few xbmc clients around the house.
I'm looking for the best (inc simplest and most reliable) method to serve media to the clients (most on windows 7 one is a mac).
The new (server) pc is running windows 7 64bit (i5 2300 based pc) and will also sometimes be used as a desktop for light office work browsing, so something that doesn't interfere with that would be ideal.
I was thinking of using DLNA with something like tversity (but at times it's proved unreliable in the past).
Are there much better options than this?
Thanks.
