A year or so ago I finally made the decision to rip and encode my entire DVD collection, much like I did my CDs years ago. Now after many months of disk swapping, file copying and overnight encoding sessions, I have a large collection of movies that I can stream across the network to my TV. It’s cool. With metadata attached, I can view the movie po...

The first media I tried out was photos. When I selected my “Photos” directory, I was immediately presented with a slide show of my pictures. This was not really what I expected. I wanted to browse and then select pictures or sub-directories to view. As I further played with the product, I found this to be the case on all directories. Any time I sel...
If you want music to go along with your pictures, just deposit one or more MP3s in the photo directory, but note that they will play back in alphabetical order, so name them accordingly.

Usually, I like to dig into a device to see what software it’s running internally. But with a stand-alone little device like this, and with no firmware image to dissect, it’s hard unless you start probing for serial or a JTAG port. So this time I’ll have to leave that to others who are prepared to dig out a soldering iron. But we can at least see w...
In general, I’d have a hard time recommending this product for any serious music playback or photo slideshows. It might work fine if you need to take it somewhere for a specific slideshow or if you just have simple playback needs. But it has fairly crude capabilities compared to other higher-end devices I’ve used. I also have the same reservations ...
