First of all, is the remote computer part of your network? If this is the case, you can use the CommonDialog to open the file. It can be found under (in XP) My Network Places->Entire Network->Microsoft Windows Network->"Remote Computer's Workplace"->"Remote Computer's Name". Of course, you will have to share the directory on the remote computer. I am not a network guy, so you will have to consult one if you have trouble.

Another scenario could be that the movies are stored on the ftp. Then you would have to get the address of that and browse it. That may be a little tougher. I would have to look that one up.
