The EVA offers two different ways to stream the footage, wi-fi or Ethernet, I would definitely recommend using Ethernet if possible as the faster transfer rates will give a much smoother playback quality as some higher quality video is too bandwidth hungry for a 54mbps wireless network to handle.
The Quality produced by the EVA is simply astounding with both vibrant colours and crisp lines it is definitely as good as playing of a blu-ray player, although this is only on a 26" screen so defects could be exacerbated by a larger TV.
