Eminent EM7095 USB Media Player DVB-T

Another day, another new media player. This one has an interesting twist as its targeted at the European market and supports DVB-T television sources. Interesting idea, and the guys at WGS don’t have any major issues with it, but man their UI is not impressive at all. Eminent’s EM7095 USB Media Player DVB-T is the first media receiver we’ve reviewed […]

Blu-ray Releases – January 18, 2011

Does 90+ minutes of watching Ryan Reynolds trapped in a box sound like a good time for you? If so, you are going to be ecstatic about Buried. Honestly, the movie was much better than I thought it would be, and Reynolds does a pretty good job of keeping it flowing. Paper Man was a pretty entertaining film as well, […]

I’ve never heard of Mede8er reviewed over in the UK, so who knows if it will make it over here. The cost seems a bit high for what it does, and we can’t actually see any action shots from the reviewer…but it’s Sunday after all. It supports all current video codecs: MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 ASP (DivX, XviD), MPEG-4 AVC (H.264, […]

Windows 7 SP1 RTM build leaks ahead of official release

I know Michael will be super excited about this. I’m very curious to learn more about RemoteFX given the popularity of the usage of the Concurrent Remote Desktop Sessions in Windows7 and previous versions. I wonder just how capable this could be (maybe it could replace the need for extenders?)? WinRumors expects Microsoft to issue Service Pack 1 on January […]

Blu-ray Releases – January 11, 2011

Oh Piranha, how you tempted me greatly to be the pick of the week. Your combination of style, substance, and absurd amount of blood and gratituitous nudity made you a worthwhile competitor. For those younger audiences, Raging Bull and Once Upon A Time in America are CLASSICS and pretty much established Robert Deniro in the world. If you haven’t seen […]

IMG_0310 [1024x768].JPG

One thing we didn’t talk about much when ArcSoft’s TotalMedia Theatre 5 (TMT5) was introduced was the inclusion of smartphone control apps. At CES, I was able to take a look at the apps which run on both Android and iOS. The apps work via wi-fi, but unfortunately, there was too much interference to see them actually work (this was […]

ESPN Breaks Record for Cable Even though Streamed

I have a few take aways from this impressive report of how ESPN did in its broadcast of the BCS Championship game last night, where it broke the record for most viewers on a cable channel broadcast. Mainly, I hope this will quiet some of the talk how online streaming video HURTS television broadcasters. Quite impressive numbers and I would […]
