I was looking for something ike this to stream .wtv and .m2ts fro my EX495 to SamsungTV. Could you explain "You still have to install Serviio, but this add-in enables you to configure Serviio from inside your WHS console." Does this mean you cannot just run serviio on the server (EX495) but on an additional PC - hence I would have to have the server and the pc on to stream to the TV? Thanks for clarifying.
