VidaBox RoomClientHD Streams Blu-ray and DVD
Comes with Microsoft Vista Home Premium and a Media Center interface.
VidaBox is now shipping its RoomClientHD media extender that offers Blu-ray and DVD streaming.
RoomClientHD connects to any HD or SD TV via HDMI, DVI or VGA cables and offers 1080p upscaling/playback of all content.
It also supports lossless audio codecs and has an option for a built-in Blu-ray drive for local playback.
RoomClientHD comes preconfigured with Microsoft Vista Home Premium and a Media Center user interface.
VidaBox says the user needs Cat5e/6 cabling and one of the company's media servers for RoomClientHD to work. VidaBox recently introduced its RACK24 Server that has 22TB of storage.
"With only a 6-inch x 6-inch footprint, installers can cleverly hide the 2-inch tall RoomClientHD behind most HDTV panels," says VidaBox president Steven Cheung.
RoomClientHD is available now. VidaBox didn't release pricing.
