More on the SIGM-powered Acer DMA: by: WINTER_CFA 11/16/05 08:44 am Msg: 88889 of 88909 This EM8620L-powered DMA is getting a lot of press in Europe: "The Linux-powered Acer Media Gateway MG-3001P media extender takes Jørgen Sundgot by surprise; straight out of the starting blocks, it proves to be a marvellous little media juggler." http://www.infosyncworld.com/reviews/n/6314.html "Installing and setting up the MG-3001P is a deceptively simple affair" "A slew of formats can be pushed either via Wi-Fi or wires to the MG-3001P, including MP3, WMA 7/8/9, LPCM and WAV for audio; MPEG 1/2/4, DivX, XviD, WMV 9 and Quicktime for video; and JPEG, PNG, TIFF, GIF and BMP for pictures. It should also be noted that MPEG2 is supported up to 1080i resolution; MPEG4 up to 720p; and WMV 9 similarly up to 720p. Despite this superbly broad plethora of acronyms, however, we`re a tad disappointed by the lack of support for Secure WMA. Still, future support is at the very least not entirely implausible given the MG-3001P`s Internet-upgradeable firmware." "The highlight of the MG-3001P, though, is its video streaming capabilities - which must be said to be utterly impressive. The most capable player we`ve seen to date, it supports a battery of formats and streams all with aplomb in resolutions up to 1080i, easily resizing formats on the fly between different resolutions and gloriously trumping competitors such as the Philips Streamium SL400i." "The Acer Media Gateway MG-3001P is now shipping throughout Europe, selling in the €250 EUR range." If the last line is true, this would certainly have helped SIGM`s about-to-be-reported 3Q. |
