Streaming from Home Server via a media player

I assume I will still be able to stream my video Bluray content from my Windows Home Server 2011 via my Mede8er 600X3D media player directly to an HDMI input on the Sky Glass TV.

I currently do it via my Sony AV receiver to a 43" LG TV, but I will be taking the AV out of the equation and going direct to the Glass TV.

If it's connected to an HDMI input there should be no reason why you can't

If you use DLNA then we don't yet know if Sky Glass supports this

@Annie+UK 

I do not use DLNA, although it does have a DLNA option in settings, but it is not turned on.

@Si+May76 any device that supports HDCP at the correct level can be connected to the Glass's HDMI inputs for example a Firestick, an Xbox or whatever media server you want to use.

Never got to try it as I cancelled the delivery before I even received it. Still waiting for the refund of £59.00 which is now over 4 weeks and counting. I will be phoning them on Monday to demand an immediate refund or I will take it up with my bank to resolve it.
