VLC Streaming Issue?
I'm not sure if this is an application problem or a network issue, but I'm trying to stream a 700mb movie from my Windows PC over a 54mb 802.11g wireless network to my Mac using VLC. The movie pauses every few minutes for about 3 seconds. I'm asumming to rebuffer the stream. But I know the network can handle more than the stream's demanding because when I actually copy the movie over to the Mac's drive, it copies the whole thing in about 20 seconds.
Is there a way to increase the transfer rate so the stream is fluid? Thanks in advance.

Your totally in wrong forum. If you look at the top it says this is Future Hardware, you need to post this in something like applications, genius bar, or general discussions.

Whoa, how did that happen?... I specifically remember clicking "Applications" before clicking "new thread"... Could an OP move this please?
p.s. you need to hit the 'Advanced' checkbox down the bottom.
