A quick one Bernard: 
From the photos Im seeing its got an ethernet port. Is this an Input port? 

My scenario: 

I need to transmit video from a computer over a distance of about 1Km. The only link I have between the two points is a Point to Point, wireless. I need the signal on the other end to enter a "box" as an analogue signal. My thoughts so far have been encode to mpeg4,. transmit via wireless and then decode back to analogue. So my question in brief, Can I run vlc on one send a uni or multicast to this device and use it as my decoder? 

If yes ill be a very happy customer of about 5 pieces... 
Regards,
