More Personal Video Players from
Computex
06/04/2004 12:34 PM

mobinot2.jpg imageThe Register's Tony Smith has even more about all the personal video players that are popping up at Computex, including this very iPodesque X-Fram II from TwinMOS (also sold as the Mobinote 7010) with a 7-inch, 754 x 480 LCD and a 20GB 1.8-inch hard drive. They are even calling its bundled app 'DVX-POD,' just so you don't mistake their intentions. It's got an AV port for on-the-fly MPEG4 encoding (although only at 352 x 288) and can play back a wealth of formats, including Divx 3/4/5 (although no word for XviD), WMV, and Quicktime 6, which is a rarity.

Archos to make personal video players
that can copy from DVDs
12/02/2003 01:23 AM
One of the biggest problems with personal video players is that there isn't a whole lot of legal content to watch on them. Because it's illegal to copy a DVD to a computer, and most people won't want one of these things just to watch home videos, the most likely source of content for these things right now is P2P file-sharing networks like Kazaa, where it's not too hard to find MPEGs of The Sopranos and The Simpsons. To get around all that, manufacturer Archos is going to start putting special chips from Texas Instruments into their personal video players that supposedly make it possible to copy movies from DVDs and watch them on the player.

AMD chips in for portable video players


AMD chips in for portable video players 01/04/2005 11:03 AM
AMD has developed a low-power chip that it thinks will make portable video players more compelling by reducing the time needed to transfer content to the devices. The company is expected to announce the chip at CES (the International Consumer Electronics Show) this week. Portable video players with the new Alchemy Au1200 processor will play Mpeg files recorded by digital video recorders, eliminating the need for users to change those files to a different format, a spokeperson says. AMD has designed a reference platform for manufacturers that includes the chip and media player software, and the company expects devices to emerge in the second quarter of this year.

Two S-Media Portable Video Players:
JoyToGo and Black Diamond


Two S-Media Portable Video Players:
JoyToGo and Black Diamond
06/08/2004 07:31 AM

smedia_joytogo_bd.jpg imageDAPReview has shots of a couple of small, hard drive-based video players, both with planned release dates around September. The first is the JoyToGo (pictured left, and which I could have sworn we'd seen before, but Google says otherwise), built around either a 20 or 30GB 1.8" hard drive, with a 480 x 234 2.5" LCD screen, as well as built-in speakers and SD slot. It will also allow direct recording of video in MPEG-4 at rates of 640x480 at 25fps -- not bad, consider that's larger than its own screen.

And even though it's only a mock-up at the moment, I can't help but be excited by the 'Black Diamond' player, built around a tiny 1" hard drive with an as-yet-unspecified capacity. It only has a 294 x 228 resolution (with the same 2.5" screen size as the JoyToGo), and no speakers or anything like that, but if they could bump the resolution of the Black Diamond up to 480 x 234, I would be happy -- honored, even -- to carry around the little player in my pocket.

Both players are from S-Media, the makers of the moderately successful CoCoPod hard disk player.

What's wrong with this picture? i-O Display Systems is coming out with a portable video player in January that just happens to be missing a screen to watch all the movies and shows stored on its 20GB hard drive. The idea behind the Riviera, as the company calls it, is that you'll hook it up to a TV or a computer when you want to watch something, but for $600, they've got to be kidding. For that same price you could get the 20GB Archos AV320, which does exactly the same thing and comes with an LCD screen built-in. I-O says they have plans to offer an add-on screen for the Riviera after it comes out, but they either need to seriously reconsider what they plan to charge for these things, or include a screen, otherwise why would anyone even consider buying one?

Google to offer personal video searching 04/05/2005 11:50 AM
Google on Monday announced it is set to begin archiving video clips in order to trial a video search service. The company plans to put out a call for personal video clips as a way to experiment with ways to expand the reach of its search service. "In the next few days, we're actually going to start taking video submissions from people, and we're not quite sure what we're going to get, but we decided we'd try this experiment," Google co-founder Larry Page said at a conference in San Francisco. Page told ZDNet that there are "tons of issues, but we have found in experimenting not to try to have too many barriers. It's hard to predict what will happen, but we have done this ten times and we figure out ways to make it work."

Nomic World: By the players, for the

05/26/2004 03:15 PM
[This is an edited version of the talk I gave last fall at the State of Play conference.] I'm sort of odd-man-out in a Games and Law conference, in that my primary area of inquiry isn't games but social software. Not only am I not a lawyer, I don't even spend most of my time thinking about game problems. I spend my time thinking about software that supports group interaction across a fairly wide range of social patterns. So, instead of working from case law out, which has been a theme here (and here's where I insert the "I am not a lawyer" disclaimer) I'm going to propose a thought experiment looking from the outside in. And I want to pick up on something that Julian [Dibbell] said earlier about game worlds: 'users are the state.' The thought experiment I want to propose is to agree with that sentiment, and to ask "How far can we go in that direction?" Instead of looking for the places where game users are currently suing or fighting one another, forcing the owners of various virtual worlds to deal with these things one crisis at a time, I want to ask the question "What would happen if we wanted to build a world where we maximized the amount of user control? What would that look like?" I'm going to make that argument in three pieces. First, I'm going to do a little background on group structure and the tension between the individual and the group. Then I want to contrast briefly governance in real and virtual worlds. Finally I want to propose a thought experiment on placing control of online spaces in the hands of the users. - More at http://www.shirky.com/writings/nomic.html
