How can i make a slingbox or a mediabox, something that i can watch my movies from my pc to tv?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

If you have either of the following:
PS3
Xbox360
You can use a program called TVersity. It is a popular streaming and transcoding program that has support for a variety of video formats. Most notably: mp4, avi, rmvb, etc. Here is the website: http://tversity.com/
If you don't, you can always build a media center PC. Here is a good guide for building a Media Center PC: http://hubpages.com/hub/Build_Your_Own_Media_Center_PC
I would also recommend LinuxMCE but if you are unfamiliar with Linux, the Windows7 media center is a less featured, but maybe more comfortable OS to use.
If you have an old Xbox sitting around and feel like getting it back to use here's another alternative:

and here is a secondary, but more tricky, method that works without the need of a dongle or Splinter Cell:

M$what I would do, if it's just for watching movies and nothing more or less is installing geexbox. cheap & light but nothing more. set up a samba share on your other computer and play the thing. price if you have the computer 0$
If you don't have any hardware thing lying around just buy a wireless transmitter box from vga to coax or scart or hdmi (depends on your tv). It saves you a lot of time and looks nice. It's not what I prefer but I set system up like that at my ex her house.
