last100: Google enters the PC to TV arena

  • Offbeatmammal · 1 year ago
    if it does a good job of on-the-fly format conversion for stuff I've obtained (eg from Bittorrent) with a variety of codecs and containers, and can stream DVDs to my Xbox360 then Windows Media Center and AppleTV become very dubious propositions.
    If however it can't then this is no better than enabling Media Sharing on a Windows Home Server or Vista PC

    I'm afraid it doesn't transcode files, as far as I'm aware. Although there are a number of other UPnP AV servers that do that. See the our DLNA certified guide that we link to in the post.
