" 'Think of AllMiMedia as home networking on steroids,' said Dr. Luc Julia, BravoBrava's co-founder and vice president of research and development. 'With AllMiMedia, you have a personal network that is always with you, giving you access and control over your digital content, whether you're at home or on the other side of the country.'

AllMiMedia allows a person's digital content -- including photos, music, Microsoft® Media Center-stored content, live television channels and Internet TV and radio -- to be remotely accessed and controlled through a web-enabled cell phone or PDA. 'With AllMiMedia, a person could remotely program his TiVo® to record 'The West Wing' and play it back later, or even watch it live from his cell phone,' said Julia...." [via Daily Palm]

There's a TiVo Edition of the software and a Windows XP Media Center Edition, described below:

"This $12/year service allows existing Windows® XP Media Center Edition 2004 users to remotely program video recording with a wireless device such as their web-enabled cell phone or PDA. For an optional $20/year, it also allows users to view photos remotely and to listen to their music stored on their Windows® XP Media Center Edition PC as well as accessing information such as weather and stocks. Check if your cell phone is AllMiMedia compliant now!"

I am happy to report that the Treo 600 is compliant, but I don't have Windows XP Media Center. It's the "listen to their music stored" on their PC that piques my interest, but not enough to go with Media Center.

Media Center Extender for Xbox Reviewed 12/24/2004 12:16 PM

media_center_exrev.jpg imagePaul Thurrott has a review up of the Xbox Media Center Extender kit—the package that lets you stream Media Center recorded content to remote TVs via your Xbox—and it's pretty much a must-read for anyone considering using the (fairly) recently-released devices. While it has a lot to offer to Media Center PC owners, a few glaring oversights, like a remote thats incompatible with other Media Center devices (and vice-versa) and the decision by Microsoft to force users to keep the software DVD in the Xbox at all times instead of loading it onto the hard drive keep it from being a clear winner. His short take is that it's good for those already hitched to Microsoft's wagon, but it isn't going to win any new fans.

Limits
06/16/2004 09:54 AM
Linksys's WRE54G is a logical repeater, listening to network traffic and rebroadcasting it; but security options are lacking, advice is odd: The description of this device contains slim information. As far as I can tell, it's a Wi-Fi only logical repeater, meaning that it's using networking magic to relay data. It can't be using Wireless Distribution System (WDS) because Linksys notes it works with any 802.11b or g network. It must attach as a client to an existing network and redistribute access as an access point itself. This function is similar to Linksys's WET11 and WET54G, which bridge Ethernet networks to any access point by simulating a client and masquerading MAC addresses. The manual for this range extender mentions multiple times in the first few pages of configuration advice that the range extender is easier to use if you turn off WEP encryption--which is extremely odd advice coming from a Wi-Fi equipment maker at this point in time. The unit only supports WEP as an encryption option, meaning that more secured networks that use WPA can't take advantage of range extension. The unit will cost $99, but I'm not sure it's necessary except for legacy home networks. For about $80 you can purchase a WRT54G, but Linksys has only enabled wireless bridging as a fixed mode: that is, a WRT54G can't bridge and be an access point at the same time. A similar unit from Buffalo, the WLA2-54G, costs about $100 and like Apple's AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express Base Stations, can serve clients while bridging to other gateways. If were building a network from scratch that required bridging and I wanted WPA security now, I'd choose Buffalo's gateway as the fundamental element....

The service also provides exclusive, subscriber-only content to its subscribers, as well as the ability to search for content that matches a specific keyword or URL, and return that content in a feed. NewsGator Online Services pricing starts at $5.95/month per user.

"Media Center PCs allow consumers to have faster and more efficient access to all of their favorite digital content when, where, and how they want," said Brad Brooks, Director of Marketing at Microsoft Corp. "With the NewsGator Media Center Edition, NewsGator Technologies is delivering a complementary and innovative service that will let Media Center Edition PC users easily access their customized choice of news services."

In the Charts: Media Center 2005 PCs
Take Center Stage Among Desktops
12/29/2004 11:54 AM
This month's Top 15 Desktop PCs chart highlights two trends: the emergence of powerful new gaming systems that have sophisticated style, and the rapidly growing selection of Media Center PCs, which expand PC-based home entertainment beyond gaming. Examples of the former are two new Athlon-fueled machines that sit atop the power section of our chart: Alienware's Aurora 64 FX-55 and ABS's Ultimate M5-64. Both of these systems are visually appealing without shouting "I'm just for games." Not only are they the two fastest systems on the chart, but they also produced outstanding sound with their high-end Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 cards and their 5.1-channel Logitech speakers (the X-530 and the Z-680, respectively).

A multimedia adapter from Cisco Systems' Linksys Group division will use technology being supported by Intel and several major home electronics vendors to secure content streaming from a PC to a TV or stereo system. The Linksys Wireless-G Media Link, to be announced this week at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, is one of a growing number of devices for sending music, video, and photos from a PC to consumer electronics devices around a home.

The new Linksys device will include DTCP-IP (Digital Transmission Content Protection over Internet Protocol), which is designed to allow users to share content among many users in a home while protecting it from neighbors within range of a home wireless LAN, says Rob Crooke, vice president and marketing director of Intel's Desktop Platforms Group.

XP Media Center + RSS


XP Media Center + RSS 04/09/2004 04:11 PM

What is Windows XP Media Center? Apparently it's a TiVO-like box, that runs Windows XP apps, that you can access over your LAN, without hacking. In other words, it's a software platform. We should be able to create some monster apps for this thing. If all this is true, it's one of the most under-promoted products in history. [Scripting News]

Don't worry Dave.  Microsoft is still ironing out the wrinkles in this premature spec.  It's not really a 1.0 yet.

But it will be.  There rae no services, apps or content for this platform - yet.  But there will be.

I pictched some Microsoft people to demo thsi system with RSS. Let's see if that happens.


Who Needs A DVD When You Have A
Microsoft Media Center?


Who Needs A DVD When You Have A
Microsoft Media Center?

Well, I'm sure some folks will make a bigger deal out of this than necessary, but Bill Gates is now claiming that the DVD has no future. He believes in 10 years it will be completely obsolete. As he says, it makes no sense for people to be carrying around portable media that can get scratched, lost or broken. While the Inquirer then knocks Gates by pointing out he once predicted the internet had no future either, this prediction really isn't that ridiculous. As overall storage and broadband connections grow, it may become pointless to ever carry around a DVD. Some might say the process has already started (though, with questionable legality in some circles). Of course, what isn't mentioned is that Gates hopes that what used to be your DVD collection will, instead, reside on a Microsoft powered "Media Center" that you can access from anywhere.
