What surprises me most about this is the test pool is *only* 400. Considering the potential of this, you would figure they would expand it. Then again, this is only one pool, no word if it’s the only group of testers (doubt it). Bohnet, 25, who runs the marketing campaign for Google TV, is one of 400 Google employees […]
Read moreI wonder what the value add is for that $40. Side-by-side and top-bottom 3D content already play just fine an HTPC (tested personally :)) you just need to tell the TV what kind of content it is. The only thing that doesn’t work is 3D BD which requires an HDMI 1.4 driver – which I think is supposed to be […]
Read moreI’m not that familar with what the different types of PlayReady licenses mean, but it looks like SageTV now has a PlayReady Master Agreement Licensee. With names like Netflix and SiliconDust also on the list hopefully it’s a precursor to good things to come. Thanks to cyberwolf for pointing this out. PlayReady Master Agreement Licensees SageTV, LLC [Approved Microsoft® […]
Read moreI’m going to file this one away in the "maybe someday" category of home theater kit, but well worth a read to see what feature will hopefully trickle down in the mainstream AVRs. While most people probably know NAD more for their CD players and integrated amplifiers, they have a whole line of home theater equipment, from receivers to […]
Read moreFair warning – if you’re tired of me beating the SMM for Sage V7 drum turn away now. Plucky just let me know that he’s been working with Jamiben (another SageTV developer who’s done some amazing work as well) on something called "Basic View" for SMM that will be in the next public beta release for SMM (hopefully next week […]
Read moreIT is a little big but if the touch-pad works well I could definitely see this as a good all-in-one keyboard mouse setup. This keyboard is an 88-key keyboard, which includes your typical keyboard keys as well as a few media specific keys. Of course it’s also wireless and even features a touch-pad. It even boasts that it is ready for Vista’s Media […]
Read moreOk…I didn’t see any comments or reaction to the new format for podcasts, so I’m going to go with the few that have spoken to me offline and stick with it. Please do let me know if you like this new format or prefer the old one. This week’s featured podcast is from Twit network’s Home Theater Geeks, who feature […]
Read morenMedia makes nice and affordable HTPC cases, and here’s one the gang at Benchmark Reviews takes for a spin. As computers become more commonly included in people’s home entertainment systems, it is only natural that companies like nMedia try to create custom cases to cater to those consumers’ needs. As seen with other cases from nMedia that Benchmark Reviews […]
Read moreI can’t remember the last time I had such a difficult time with such few Blu-ray releases. Cemetary Junction looks like it has potential I suppose. Nanny McPhee if you have kids I’d imagine? MissingRemote’s Pick of the Week Hamlet ** Shakespear’s always a good solid recommendation right? Kenneth Branagh is a quality actor and he’s got the accent down. […]
