Re compt to tv hook up

I’m wanting to hook up my tv to my compt.  I want to use my big screen tv like a monitor and use the computer as normal, and i also want to be able to download movies to the computer and watch them on that screen?  My tv and my compt are compatible, my tv has a dvi connection and my computer has the capability to connect the cable directly to it.  I have a wireless router, and my cable modem are in another room.  I can easily run a cable from the back of the computer to the wireless router.  thats on the right track, right?  Then, in order to download and play movies from like netflix- does the tv bascially just run off of another video input? I also have a dvr hooked up to this tv- is there a way to incorporate all of this? i realize the compt has media center that can also record shows- could my dvr be replaced by just using this?  Any info would be appreciated and thanks a bunch!
