How to stream HD-DVD from hard drive to Xbox 360 to playback on HDTV?

Most if not all video cards don't have component out so the only way I can think of to view the HD-DVD content would be by streaming.

Is there any way at this time to stream HD-DVD from hard drive to Xbox 360 to playback on HDTV?

1) TV and computer are pretty far away from each other and those cables can be really expensive

2) TV has component in, so not only do I need a long cable but I need an adapter- big bucks

Best solutions:

a) Streaming HD-DVD to XBox 360 connected to TV

or

b) Burn HD-DVD to DVD-9 by spliting HD-DVD into two or more DVD-9 discs without compression (and so maintaining quality).

Problem- to my knowledge technology for neither of these exists today.

But here's hoping that somebody, perhaps somebody here, makes it possible in the future.

Most people will need to build a new PC since most current ones are not powerful enough. Then put said PC next to TV and get a $10 DVI to HDMI cable.
