I've tried TVersity, but it's interface is a little clunky (being in Flash) and WMP seems like overkill.

Is there something smaller which gets the job done?

Thanks

I can't see past TVersity for streaming media! – GaryJL Jul 30 at 12:09

I have to admit you have the best option so far. I use TVersity and I hardly ever need to use the interface. I edit my tags, copy my files into the right folder, and just wait for TVersity to update it's albums.

XBMC is an alternative but also a complete media centre.

VLC does allow you to host a stream and has a smaller footprint overall.

I spose TVersity is alright. It does the job, so I'll stick with it for now. Does anyone else hate the interface? – alex Aug 5 at 3:16
I hardly ever use the interface except to add new folders. Never had a real issue with it – Diago♦ Aug 5 at 11:59
How do you make VLC stream media? – alex Oct 6 at 6:43
@Alex. From memory it is under the File menu, there is a broadcast or streaming option. I haven't used it in a while and don't have a copy hand to test, but will update once I am. – Diago♦ Oct 6 at 8:39

There's also TwonkyMedia, alternatively if you're running Windows Home Server, that will also stream media to XBox360 and DLNA certified equipment.

PlayOn I believe is the only one out there with Netflix support, which makes it my favorite.
