Network DVD Player

Post by Brandon »

Mykpoz pointed this out to me this afternoon:

This thing is badass for the price, pop in a wireless card and play movies, music, view pics from your pc or network storage.

I don't know if it will play multiple regions or if it is PAL compatible though.

www.d2730.com has some info on it.

Well the companies have been testing the waters with these products recently. I think soon enough wireless will be an option on many devices through the house. I know there is already a wireless radio that pulls music via streaming radio. I forget the company though.

i own the hauppauge media mvp...

its ok... not the greatest but it beats having a media pc in the bedroom or the spare room.

It is fairly buggy, and its performance depends greatly on the media pc that its connecting to, because it uses that computers processor and codecs to decode and stream the video/mp3/etc

there are quiet a bit of skins that go with the media mvp, and if you are paitent you can pick them up for @60-70 dollars at circuit city.
