If you boot into the
secret menu, there is a "Personal Media Settings" option to "Enable playback from home network". If you do this, it will turn the silver BT Vision box into a DLNA upnp client! When you select "Photos music and video" from the secret menu, it will then look on your local network for a DLNA server.

It states that it wants to connect to Windows Media Player 11, but I managed to get it to connect to PS3 Media Server! Then you can browse it for media. The silver BT Vision box had secret DLNA capability the whole time. And there was no need to install mod-chips on the box, just booting into the
secret menu was all that was required!
