    Yes you can.

    1) What are you going to stream to? Another computer? or TV? Media player?

    2) What type of files do you have? (EX: DVD iso? divx avi? mkv? h.264 mp4?) I would also need to know if you are wanting to stream HD video and what type of audio you are going to use. Audio would be AC3 5.1 or stereo L/R (mp3), or maybe AAC?

    The best thing to do is setup the network to handle YOUR preferred file type and codec (audio + video)
