Ian over at the Digital Lifestyle.com has just released the Digital Lifestyle Show number 281 amusingly entitled Media Indigestion (it will make sense when you listen to it!). And once again I’m on the show.
Western Digital offers a line of 2.5” drives made specifically for HTPCs, PVRs, surveillance video and digital signs. These drives use a 3 Gb/s interface, 32 MB cache and range in size from 160GB to 500GB. If you are looking for a 2.5” drive for your HTPC then the WD AV-25 line is for you.
As well as letting us know about the second beta for Lights-Out for Windows Home Server Vail, Martin also told us that a beta for the V1 Windows Home Server Lights-Out was also available.
Martin Rothschink has been in touch to say that he has just released a second preview for his excellent Lights-Out Add-In for Windows Home Server Code Name Vail and Aurora (or Windows Small Business Server 2011 Essentials to you and me).
Back at the UK Windows Media Center and Windows Home Server User Group in June I met up with Evolve Media and talked with them about their lifeStation and LifeStore products. Well this week, the What Hifi Ultimate Guide to new technology is published and the lifeStation was awarded Best Buy and 5 Stars.
Vidabox, makers of those high end Media Center machines, have recently released a Mini-ITX case called the CubeCase, and if you are planning on building your own Media Center or Windows Home Server Vail machine, then you should take a look at this.
Often when I am on the Digital Lifestyle Show podcast, we talk about streaming media to different devices and it is topic that is very interesting. Mysticgeek over at the HomeServerShow.com has posted a really interesting article on steaming media from your V1 Windows Home Server to your Apple iOS device using the ZumoCasta software.
Along with the My Movies 4 for Windows Media Center update today, Brian has also released an update to both the Windows Home Server V1 and Windows Home Server 2011 editions of My Movies 4.
