Looking at a new media centre extender / streamer
Hello all. I am currently running Vista Ultimate x64, with a wired connection to an Xbox 360, and I use Transcode 360 to stream the .avi media.
I find the 360 to be loud (like a helicopter taking off) and sluggish, and it doesn't seem to play all the media formats on my PC (it will play some .avi files but not all).
I have been looking at warious different forms of media centre extender / streamers and have formulated this list:
AL Tech MG450HD - this looks good but has no DVD functionality and I also like to record tv from my PC.
Linksys DMA2200 - This one worries me as it doesn't seem to support a lot of video file formats.
They seem to be the top two I am looking at. If you have anyother suggestions, this is what I am looking for:
HDMI
Wide range of file format compatibility
DVD
Scilence
That's about it.
Cheers.
