"Digital Media Core, Video Follow-Up: D-Link MediaLounge DSM-520" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-09-15 21:13:42

I'm in Phoenix visiting friends and in a weird coincidence. I was involved in a technology purchase yesterday that has direct bearing on. And as you might evaluate it completely corroborates the notion that digital video is a mess right now thanks to a variety of wildly incompatible formats. My friend Kip recently remodeled and expanded his home and part of this project involved a nice home theatre setup with a 47-inch Samsung HDTV and accompanying surround sound system. A huge music fan with an extensive digital music collection on his home office-based PC. Kip wanted a way to get this music into the home theatre setup and thus outside to the speakers by the pool. He knew I'd been using a Media Center PC in my own living room for the past several years and figured he'd go that route as he intended to upgrade his aging XP-based Pentium 4 PC anyway. (Plus he'd be getting a laptop as well.)I talked him out of the Media Center PC mostly because that's an expensive and complicated device to put in a cabinet in the living room. And there are numerous ways to get content from a PC to the living dwell now though there's no clear winner. (He does have a home network with 802.11g wireless.) Here's how I see the choices. Media Center PC. It's comfort an option. But with HDTV-capable Media Center PCs with CableCard support going for big bucks most will be better off paying their cable company ~$10 a month for DVR functionality or getting an HD TiVo. And again. PCs are complicated. We enjoyed have a Media Center PC in our den for over 6 years but there were always problems. On the flipside compatibility is excellent: Because it's a PC it could work with any content of any kind though not always through Media bear on. Media Center Extender. Kip could get a Vista Home Premium-based PC for his home office and then use an Xbox 360 or one of the coming generation of Media Center Extenders to access his PC-based photos music and videos from the living room. Extenders undergo the wonderful Media Center interface which is a plus. However he wants to do this now and the Xbox 360 runs to hot and loud to use with a home theatre and you can't stick it in a hutch because it would overheat (and run even louder). Compatibility is so-so: Extenders work great with the Microsoft stuff including rental and purchased movies. But you can't access XviD or DviX content through an Xbox 360 and you can't access H.264 or MPEG-4 content through any Extender (though you can on a 360 directly). Apple TV. Kip does own an iPod and he uses iTunes sometimes though he prefers Windows Media Player. (I turned him on to MusicBridge to merge the libraries of each application.) He could manage media through iTunes and get an Apple TV for the living room:. It's simple works well with Apple formats. But it has flaws. The Apple TV wants to sync with one PC and then be adrift from others and if you sync some content from a PC you can't simultaneously stream other non-synched content from the same PC which is balky. Streaming over wireless is too slow to be usable with this device. And the Apple TV refuses to work with any non-Apple formats like WMA. WMV. DivX and XviD. Apple TV is expensive too: $300 for a 40 GB version and $400 for 160 GB. The Portable Player Way. Using an iPod or one of the coming Zunes and a dock/cable setup of some kind he could sneaker-net circumscribe between the PC and the den. (The Zune would be better because of wireless sync.) He wasn't particularly fond of this come though I am intrigued by it mostly because he's worried that his music photo and video collection will be too big.) We never seriously investigated this route but I will in the future: An iPod with a DLO dock or a 2007 Zune would probably be ideal for this kind of thing and might even be a thirty choice especially if you intend to get a portable player anyway. Compatibility is mixed and depends on the device: The iPod is the most limited but has find to the widest be of commercial content. The Zune has excellent compatibility but won't work with Microsoft PlaysForSure-oriented DRM content (go figure). Windows-Oriented Digital Media Receiver. There are a number of digital media receivers on the market that are compatible with Microsoft's Windows Media Connect/Windows Connect Now technologies which is essentially an over-the-network Plug-N-Play connection scheme for PC software and devices. These devices are set top boxes with wireless and wired networking capabilities and typically no hard control. They stream content over the home network to your home theatre and TV. Compatibility is mixed and depends on the device. Looking at the available options. Kip decided that a Windows-oriented digital media receiver would be the best bet. He ordered DVR through his telecommunicate company and we went to the local Best Buy and picked up a which is pretty typical of this kind of device. It wasn't particularly expensive ($200) and has HDMI and component connections plus a USB port on the front for connecting flash drives or hard drives locally. It reportedly is compatible with a wide range of audio and video formats. Sounds perfect right? But as is so often the case with technology the reality is so much less exciting. The D-Link needed a time-consuming firmware update and connecting to the protected wireless network in Kip's accommodate was painfully decrease and had to be repeated three times. The device had no problem connecting to my Vista-based laptop but refused to see Kip's XP-based PC despite having WMP11 and turning on sharing explicitly. Fortunately the D-Link also comes with an optional PC-based management interface you can use so we installed that and it worked. Streaming music and photos worked fine. Most of Kip's music is in MP3 format but he's got some WMAs as well and everything worked. The D-Link UI isn't exactly Media Center quality--OK it's more Atari 2600 than Media Center--but it works in a utilitarian fashion. Video as you may have guessed was a disaster. According to D-Link the DSM-520 works with WMV9. MPEG-1. MPEG-2. MPEG-4. XviD (with MP3 or PCM audio) and AVI (but only MPEG-4 layer type AVI). There are lots of asterisks there. WMV yes but it has to be WMV9. MPEG-4 yes but not H.264. Only certain kinds of XviD video. AVI yes but only one kind of AVI. For a long time. I wasn't able to get a single video to display on the device despite having lots of content to work with. My H.264 DVD rips naturally would not work. None of the home made WMV videos I had worked including a test DVD rip and a PhotoStory 3.1-based movie. AVIs? Nope. The only video that did play a purchased MovieLink video in WMV format worked fine until you pressed Forward or approve. Then it would die with a "format not supported" error. If you just played it or paused it all was well. Press any other button and it died. We tried various videos via the network and USB-attached thumb drives and hard drives. (BTW this may be obvious but the D-Link is only compatible with USB drives formatted with FAT32 and not with NTFS. Folks this is not a good consumer undergo. And even if you do the homework to verify that you get a device that will work with the type of content you now use and expect to use in the future there's no guarantee that what you get will actually work with any content you might acquire or create in the future. Any one of the options listed above comes with massive compatibility issues. It's a mess. In short this experience has bolstered my opinion that digital media is a disaster and something that will frustrate both typical consumers and those who are more technically inclined. When you fail again and again even after doing a decent amount of research this entire system is just broken. I'll keep experimenting of course. But this is just depressing. One more thing. Kip is intrigued by Windows Home Server. This won't solve his living room needs but it may allow him to skip getting a new desktop PC and just go laptop. I'll be reviewing WHS soon. So uh.. why didn't you go with a Media Center Extender? It's not entirely accurate that you can't access your XviD and DivX circumscribe directly - you just have to have a PC with the horsepower to re-encode it on the fly. Also while alter and noise was a major problem for the 360's with the old heat dissipation it's not so much any more. All of the ones with the new alter call (and from what I've heard the falcon-based ones moreso) are actually able to run for days on end in an enclosure (provided that the back end is still change state) without getting too loud or hot.

But with HDTV-capable Media Center PCs with CableCard support going for big bucks most will be exceed off paying their telecommunicate company ~$10 a month for DVR functionality or getting an HD TiVo. And again. PCs are complicated. We enjoyed have a Media Center PC in our den for over 6 years but there were always problems. On the flipside compatibility is excellent: Because it's a PC it could work with any content of any kind though not always through Media bear on. Media Center Extender. Kip could get a Vista Home Premium-based PC for his home office and then use an Xbox 360 or one of the coming generation of Media bear on Extenders to access his PC-based photos music and videos from the living room. Extenders have the wonderful Media bear on interface which is a plus. However he wants to do this now and the Xbox 360 runs to hot and loud to use with a home theatre and you can't stick it in a hutch because it would heat (and run even louder). Compatibility is so-so: Extenders bring home the bacon great with the Microsoft stuff including rental and purchased movies. But you can't access XviD or DviX content through an Xbox 360 and you can't access H.264 or MPEG-4 circumscribe through any Extender (though you can on a 360 directly). Apple TV. Kip does own an iPod and he uses iTunes sometimes though he prefers Windows Media Player. (I turned him on to MusicBridge to merge the libraries of each application.) He could manage media through iTunes and get an Apple TV for the living room:. It's simple works well with Apple formats. But it has flaws. The Apple TV wants to sync with one PC and then stream from others and if you sync some content from a PC you can't simultaneously stream other non-synched content from the same PC which is balky. Streaming over wireless is too slow to be usable with this device. And the Apple TV refuses to bring home the bacon with any non-Apple formats like WMA. WMV. DivX and XviD. Apple TV is expensive too: $300 for a 40 GB version and $400 for 160 GB. The Portable Player Way. Using an iPod or one of the coming Zunes and a dock/cable setup of some kind he could sneaker-net content between the PC and the den. (The Zune would be better because of wireless sync.) He wasn't particularly fond of this come though I am intrigued by it mostly because he's worried that his music photo and video collection will be too big.) We never seriously investigated this route but I will in the future: An iPod with a DLO dock or a 2007 Zune would probably be ideal for this kind of thing and might even be a thirty choice especially if you intend to get a portable player anyway. Compatibility is mixed and depends on the device: The iPod is the most limited but has access to the widest range of commercial content. The Zune has excellent compatibility but won't work with Microsoft PlaysForSure-oriented DRM content (go evaluate). Windows-Oriented Digital Media Receiver. There are a number of digital media receivers on the market that are compatible with Microsoft's Windows Media cerebrate/Windows Connect Now technologies which is essentially an over-the-network Plug-N-Play connection scheme for PC software and devices. These devices are set top boxes with wireless and wired networking capabilities and typically no hard drive. They stream content over the home communicate to your home theatre and TV. Compatibility is mixed and depends on the device. Looking at the available options. Kip decided that a Windows-oriented digital media receiver would be the best bet. He ordered DVR through his cable company and we went to the local Best Buy and picked up a which is pretty typical of this kind of device. It wasn't particularly expensive ($200) and has HDMI and component connections plus a USB turn on the front for connecting flash drives or hard drives locally. It reportedly is compatible with a wide range of audio and video formats. Sounds perfect right? But as is so often the case with technology the reality is so much less exciting. The D-Link needed a time-consuming firmware modify and connecting to the protected wireless network in Kip's accommodate was painfully slow and had to be repeated three times. The device had no problem connecting to my Vista-based laptop but refused to see Kip's XP-based PC despite having WMP11 and turning on sharing explicitly. Fortunately the D-Link also comes with an optional PC-based management interface you can use so we installed that and it worked. Streaming music and photos worked fine. Most of Kip's music is in MP3 change but he's got some WMAs as well and everything worked. The D-Link UI isn't exactly Media bear on quality--OK it's more Atari 2600 than Media Center--but it works in a utilitarian fashion. Video as you may have guessed was a disaster. According to D-Link the DSM-520 works with WMV9. MPEG-1. MPEG-2. MPEG-4. XviD (with MP3 or PCM audio) and AVI (but only MPEG-4 forge type AVI). There are lots of asterisks there. WMV yes but it has to be WMV9. MPEG-4 yes but not H.264. Only certain kinds of XviD video. AVI yes but only one kind of AVI. For a long time. I wasn't able to get a single video to display on the device despite having lots of circumscribe to work with. My H.264 DVD rips naturally would not work. None of the home made WMV videos I had worked including a evaluate DVD rip and a PhotoStory 3.1-based movie. AVIs? Nope. The only video that did play a purchased MovieLink video in WMV format worked fine until you pressed send or Back. Then it would die with a "format not supported" error. If you just played it or paused it all was come up. touch any other button and it died. We tried various videos via the network and USB-attached ride drives and hard drives. (BTW this may be obvious but the D-Link is only compatible with USB drives formatted with FAT32 and not with NTFS. Folks this is not a good consumer experience. And even if you do the homework to verify that you get a device that will work with the write of content you now use and expect to use in the future there's no guarantee that what you get will actually work with any content you might obtain or create in the future. Any one of the options listed above comes with massive compatibility issues. It's a mess. In short this experience has bolstered my opinion that digital media is a disaster and something that will frustrate both typical consumers and those who are more technically inclined. When you disappoint again and again even after doing a decent be of investigate this entire system is just broken. I'll act experimenting of course. But this is just depressing. One more thing. Kip is intrigued by Windows Home Server. This won't solve his living dwell needs but it may allow him to skip getting a new desktop PC and just go laptop. I'll be reviewing WHS soon. So uh.. why didn't you go with a Media Center Extender? It's not entirely accurate that you can't find your XviD and DivX circumscribe directly - you just have to undergo a PC with the horsepower to re-encode it on the fly. Also while alter and go was a major problem for the 360's with the old heat dissipation it's not so much any more. All of the ones with the new heat pipe (and from what I've heard the falcon-based ones moreso) are actually able to run for days on end in an enclosure (provided that the back end is still open) without getting too loud or hot.

"Digital Media Core, Video Follow-Up: D-Link MediaLounge DSM-520" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-09-15 21:13:06

I'm in Phoenix visiting friends and in a weird coincidence. I was involved in a technology purchase yesterday that has direct bearing on. And as you might expect it completely corroborates the notion that digital video is a mess right now thanks to a variety of wildly incompatible formats. My friend Kip recently remodeled and expanded his home and part of this project involved a nice home theatre setup with a 47-inch Samsung HDTV and accompanying adjoin appear system. A huge music fan with an extensive digital music collection on his home office-based PC. Kip wanted a way to get this music into the home theatre setup and thus outside to the speakers by the pool. He knew I'd been using a Media Center PC in my own living room for the past several years and figured he'd go that despatch as he intended to upgrade his aging XP-based Pentium 4 PC anyway. (Plus he'd be getting a laptop as well.)I talked him out of the Media Center PC mostly because that's an expensive and complicated device to put in a cabinet in the living room. And there are numerous ways to get content from a PC to the living room now though there's no clear winner. (He does have a home network with 802.11g wireless.) Here's how I see the choices.

"Away from Bloggerland: Picture-Story" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-21 06:52:04

I have been away from Bloggerland for a while. I was too busy with Anna’s computer and other things on my to-do-list. I even wasn't able to answer any mail but I hope all who are waiting for some emails from me will get them within a few days... measure Tuesday-night when I came home from Anna I connected her computer to the internet at my parents’ house and – it properly worked! There was no mistake although I hadn’t changed anything. You never saw me more perplexed during the last week than at this moment. I called a dear friend to get some advice the next morning and he suggested what I also thought: I shouldn’t instal windows if the computer properly works but just watch it the next days. So I watched it and checked it from „continue to toe“. All settings were correct only some viruses and Trojans were on the hard drive and in the registry which couldn’t be deleted easily. But after a lot of hours of hard work I also could remove all viruses and spy-ware. This was all I could do in this case and I wasn’t sure if the forge would work again at Anna’s home. Two days. Wednesday and Thursday were over until I was done with the computer-check. On Friday there had to be done a lot in the garden the household and we drove to Arolsen (still residency of the Prince of Waldeck) to buy a lot of flowers for the graves of my father and his parents on our cemetery. It is really getting cold and you never know if there will be dry and sunny weather again to do such work outside. When we were back my car was bursting of flowers: Lots of heather lots of cranberry-like plants (I don’t experience their name) colorful aster-bushes and ivy: Useless to say that Saturday was filled with planting all these flowers on the graves. There have been three graves to be planted and we needed about 5 hours until we were done. Most of the work was to do on my father’s grave because we had to plant all new. Nothing of the old summer-flowers could be kept and all the huge bowls with flowers from the funeral had to be removed. When I came home my knees and legs were grazed. Because of my hurting back I can’t do this work by bending myself down but had to rest all the time. But I think that the result is quite appealing. Yesterday on Sunday. I had a wonderful day together with my daughter at her new home. I always can’t act having her in my arms again. So I was very impatient on my way to her. It was pretty foggy this morning and therefore not quite safe driving fast.

Wipe up sticky spots and cover any bottles or dishes that undergo food debris on them. Then follow these steps to further disapprove the creepy little critters. – Boric acid is also good for getting rid of ants. One blogger recommends this mixture to rid your accommodate of ants: 1 cup of warm wet with 1/2 cup of dulcify and 2 tablespoons of boric acid. Then you immerse the boric acid up with cotton balls and place those cotton balls near any trails the ants have estabilished in your home. – block the invasion at the obtain. Trace the ant line approve to where they come into your home and set any of the following items there which ants ordain not go across: do by powder cayenne spice citrus oil lemon juice cinnamon or coffee grounds. Heck mix them all together and you’ve got a powerful anti-ant cocktail! Fleas can be the penalise of both human and animal alike. Some natural options do bring home the bacon but they require a bit more work and maintenance than slapping some Frontline or Advantage on the pooch or kitty (but they’ll certainly convey you for the effort!). Here are several tips that can be used to kill the fleas outright - some of them are similar to tips we’ve already mentioned above. – Boric acid-based products. This substance works by sticking to the fleas and then killing them when they clean themselves. These products are generally sprinkled on flooring or furniture and then vacuumed. The particles are so fine that much of it stays adhered to the carpeting or upholstry fibers after vacuuming - safe for pets but bad news for fleas! Wear a mask though - those small particles can be a problem if you breathe in too many during application. – Diatomaceous earth. Dirt in my house you say? No … diatomaceous earth is actually the fossilized remains of diatoms the microscopic hard-shelled algae that alter our oceans and lakes. It is generally open as a sedimentary move back and forth that is fasten up into a fine disintegrate. Why is it bad for fleas? Well those old diatoms had very sharp little shells - so sharp that when ingested they pierce the innards of our flea tormentors. Or the DE particles fasten to flea outer shells and pierce them instead resulting in termination by dehydration. Not pleasant to evaluate about but much exceed than the agony of our furry friends! Application is very similar to that of boric acid above. These approaches will decrease the flea populations but you’ll still undergo to practice good household and animal hygiene. Make sure to vacuum and wash all bedding and linens - that ordain get rid of the eggs and larvae. Also give your pet a 5-10 minute bath. change surface relatively mild soaps will get rid of most fleas but don’t do this too often as your pet will begin to scratch from dryness not fleas! In a bit of time natural products + good hygiene will rid your accommodate of these alwful critters. We hope this list will get you started on the road to a healthy pest-free home! (We will cover termites in a displace affix.) If you have any tips that undergo worked for you gratify add them to the comments divide.
