ELEGATO EYECONNECT UPGRADE

The new version is a free upgrade to those of us who already ponied up US$49 for the jump from v1 to v2, but those of you who've been holding back can still get on board at this special price until March 31st, 2006 (there's that date again!) at which time you'll be cursing about the US$79 price. This means that the new Core Solo mini's CPU usage won't peg while recording Oprah every afternoon (not that I'd risk doing anything else on the machine while Oprah was busy recording). Depending on the file formats supported by the media players, EyeConnect can stream audio and image as well as video formats.I recieved a nice PR from the fine people over at Elgato the other day announcing to me that they'd finally shipped their Universal Binary version of EyeTV 2 (Note to EyeTV 1.8.x people: 'ur screwed'). Different UPnP( AV media servers support different file formats. Wireless Network or Ethernet Network required.

EyeConnect supports the growing number of brand name digital media devices certified for UPnP AV.Įlgato Systems is a member of the Digital Living Network Association (DLNA), the Intel Developer Network for the Digital Home and the UPnP Forum. UPnP AV products work easily with each other and do not require complex configuration. What is UPnP AV technology? UPnP AV (Universal Plug ‘n Play) technology is an open networking architecture that employs TCP/IP and other Internet technologies for a seamless flow of digital content through a home. It is supported by a wide range of consumer electronics companies including major players like HP, Netgear, Panasonic, Philips, Pioneer, Samsung, Sony, Toshiba and many more.

These devices and many more like them support UPnP AV, which is a broadly accepted industry standard that enables digital content to be identified, managed, and distributed across multiple devices. In addition, EyeConnect supports HDTV content as well as Dolby Digital.ĮyeConnect works with all UPnP AV devices and was tested successfully with the following products: Philips Streamium (S元00i, SL400i and MX6000i), Netgear MP115, D-Link DSM-320 MediaLounge, Buffalo LinkTheater PC-P3LWG/DVD, GoVideo D2730. As an added benefit, the content remains organized as found in the user’s Macintosh library. EyeConnect automatically determines the digital media formats supported by the UPnP AV certified device, which typically include MP3, AAC, JPG MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and many more. Now Mac users can manage the wired or wireless streaming of stored multimedia content to multiple devices in a connected home environment. Much of the growth will be driven by PC vendors, who are rolling out Media Center PCs that fit both in look and function in the living room.

Total media networking connections will grow from over 51 million in 2005 to over 223 million in 2009, a 29% annual growth rate. The integration of media ports into CE devices will continue, with many devices having Ethernet and 802.11x ports standard in coming years. The research company In-Stat expects media networking to continue to grow rapidly over the next few years. We want to give the Mac community the freedom of choice for their favorite living room equipment.” In the first four months of this year the market has already seen a broad range of consumer electronic brands announcing their UPnP AV solutions.
