Antec Fusion Remote Black

Antec Fusion has been around for a while, and is a quality case which I know many people have used. Here’s a nice review of it as a refresher.       When we first took a look into this chassis, we wondered how hard it would be to install an optical drive. Antec probably figured this may be an […]

SageTV 7 Main Screen

Huge news broken by Brent over at GeekTonic.  He definitely has connections at SageTV.  He got an exclusive look at the new SageTV 7 UI, the new plug-in manager, and much, MUCH more.  It would appear that the silence from SageTV was certainly time well-spent and I know I’m personally looking forward to trying it out.  To say that SageTV […]

UFC PPV Comes to Roku

UFC PPVs are a pretty high traffic deal, and coming from UFC which has been pretty harsh against online streaming of their content finally give their fans (without cable) a legitimate way to view it. Should be interesting to see their numbers.     Later today, Roku will make a UFC […]

Denon DBP-1611UD Universal Blu Player First Look

My how Denon has continued to evolve and extend its market presence. Back in the day, no way you would see a Denon component for $400, yet when all their direct competitors are releasing expensive Blu-ray players, Denon comes in cheaper and feature filled. Not a bad deal.   The new Denon DBP-1611UD might not have all the bells and […]

Catalyst 10.4 Fixes EDID Issue for HTPCs

This problem has been around for so long, it’s slightly insulting that it’s taken this long to resolve. Those of you using AMD video cards and an HDMI receiver will definitely want to look into this.
