The repo file should be a zip file. Then you install that repo and you can add from it.
Bluecop's repo rocks but I also use Superepo:

For some of the streaming plugins you can get surround on the HD streams. I recommend either Icefilms or Navi-X plugins to start with.
For any local files you play it should bitstream the audio perfectly to your AV receiver.
Consider building one. I think the best media server you can buy is an Unraid server.
I'll give the repos a try tomorrow when I get home. Been down the home built nas road before and would prefer a commercial version this time. If memory serves it was unraid I used. I want a bit more plug and play this time. Just don't have to time to mess with all the settings.
