Watch Recorded programmes from another TV

Hi all,

So I have my U4 connected to Samsung TV in lounge room. U4 is on my home network.

Just bought another TV (Sony) which will be located in Media room. This TV is on my home network as well.
From my new TV I can see my recorded programmes via 'miniDLNA Server'. All good.

Just want to check I am doing this the 'best' way in order to watch my recorded programmes/Movies on U4 from Media room TV?
Or is there a better way to achieve this?

Your thoughts?

There are three ways to view recordings from the Beyonwiz on a TV that doesn't have a HDMI or other A/V connection to the Beyonwiz:

Copy the recording data file (the one with the .ts extension) onto portable media connected to the Beyonwiz's USB port, unmount it, and connect it to the TV's USB port (if it has one), and play that through the TV's media player.
Connect to the Windows share containing the movie folder on the Beyonwiz from the TV and play recordings' .ts files from the share, though I'm not sure than many TVs will be capable of that.
Connect to the Beyonwiz from the TV using DLNA and play recordings using the TV's DLNA media player.

In general, using DLNA is the most convenient, but least capable, of those methods.
