This ENHANCED television set top digital media center features the popular Freevo package and a massive 300 GB storage capacity that delivers music, movies, and images to your television screen and high quality audio to your stereo system. Using a handy remote control, and on-television screen menus, it enables the ripping and storage of thousands of songs, albums, and DVD movies (actual storage depends on format and length of media). The system supports recording in .wav, .mp3, .ogg, and .fla formats, and playback of most commonly used formats, including .m4a! The music is automatically categorized by artist, album, and song. Be your own DJ and create playlists for playback in any order. Download your favorite cover art from an Internet CD Database for on-screen display when an album is playing.

 

If the media center is connected to the Internet, listen to webcast radio stations.

The media center stores your favorite digital photos and artwork for display. Create photo albums and slide shows. Rotate pictures while viewing.

 

In addition, the system can interface with computers on an existing Ethernet network (10/100 Mbps), so that recordings can be shared. Recordings may also be transferred into the box merely by drag-and-drop from your Windows PC.

 

Using VNC software, the system can also be controlled across the network. For example, I like to use my wireless laptop to remote control my stereo.
