    You can mount a network HDD on your pc, regards playing the movies it all depends on the format.

    Off the top of my head in Network settings there's network mount manager. You can then mount shared folder from your PC.

    Make sure you set up a cifs share and make sure the folder that you want to see on your pc also has sharing enabled.

    CIFS allows you to share with a windows hard drive or media and NFS allows you to share with another linux based hdd or media

    Have you found the network browser under menu > setup > system > Network > NetworkBrowser ?
