Which mediacenter appliance
- by Guillaume
I'm looking to buy a mediacenter appliance, but I am a bit lost by all the offers on the market. Here are the features I am looking for :
at least 500Go HDD
capable of playing HD (1080p)
supporting a good range of video and audio codecs
support for subtitles
including a DVB-T input (coax) and tuner
composite video input
5.1 (or 7.1) analog audio output
LAN (100M or Gigabit)
fileserver (SMB or NFS)
remote control
possibly digital output (S/PDIF, TOSLINK, or other)
no need for integrated DVD player
no need for wifi
The Ultio Pro looks nice (http://www.thinkgeek.com/electronics/home-entertainment/d3fe). It just lacks a DVB-T input which is a show killer for me.
Thanks for your suggestions.
