Bit of an update. I've added DLNA media streaming capabilities to the server by installing the miniDNLA package and configuring it to stream my music, photos and videos. The simplest guide I found for this is here;

There is also a Webmin module for miniDLNA but it didn't make the correct changes to config file so I had to do it manually. Everything is working great and I can stream my whole media library to whatever device I like, in this case it's my Eee Pad tablet.
The only downside is that it streams everything as is, so if the remote client isn't capable then it won't play. This means that my full HD rips won't play properly on the Eee Pad so my next mission is to find a solution that will encode the videos on the fly............
