Trying to stream from the net to TV in other room

    Hi,
    I hope this is the right section for this. The problem I have is my parents have a PC in the back room which is not wireless and like to watch streamed sport on this PC. They are getting old and have a HD Tv in the front room and I want to know if there is some sort of gadget (not too expensive) that can send the streaming from the PC to the HDMI connection on the TV with wireless. Have looked at extended HDMI cables etc but it is an old house and to drill through the walls could turn out to a disaster and I know they dont want that. Have searched the net but if someone has experience of this and can advise me great.
    Thanks,
    Mick

    There is something that will work for you. I don't remember the name (think it was q-waves or something like that). It came with two devices in the box. One connects to your computer via usb, the other connects to the tv using vga or HDMI. Then the computer picks up the TV as a second monitor and can wirelessly send over anything to it just like a normal monitor would. They were well over €100 last I seen though.

    Cheers
