TakeTV simplifies the journey from computer to TV

article published on 22 October, 2007

I have been looking for something like this product for my mother. Hopefully it will not be overpriced. If only it had better quality output, then I may consider getting one.

I wonder if you can hookup an external HDD instead of using the USB drive.

sorry, but my xbox running XBMC can do everything this does, plus a whole lot more. At (most likely) a fraction of the price. Without DRM. Without ads. Without the "premium" download service Fanfare. Without all the other hoops they will probably make you jump through to use this product.

I like this idea if this goes ahead and becomes fully mainstream it will work to have a usb connection on a TV device or DVD player much easier to manage avi files than to convert them to DVD's.

Who needs to do the conversion to DVD. I have a D-Link media center that streams music, photos and movies over my wireless network. Simply download the file to your computer (it is limited to Xvid and MPG support as Divx is licensed) Then with my media center connected to my TV I select the menu and get a list of all the files on my computer and push play. Works Great!
