Looks like the Mvix MV780 is getting some competition in the unique space of hard-drive equipped HD media player/PC media streamers that also double as NAS devices. However, what sets the Korean manufactured Celrun TV apart from the crowd is that it also functions as a PVR with the ability to record to its 320GB hard drive from either an unencrypted cable (QAM) TV connection or over-the-air (ATSC) antennae signal, according to Akihabara News. But that’s not all… since the Celrun TV is powered by Sigma Designs’ SMP8634 chip, the device makes easy work of playing 1920×1080p HD video (HDMI out), outputs S/PDIF digital audio, and plays back a multitude of popular media files codecs/formats like H.264 MPEG-4/AVC, VOB, Xvid, WMV HD, MPEG-1/2/4, FLAC, OGG, AAC, MP3, etc. (full list below). The device even offers wireless 802.11b/g connectivity and USB 2.0 Host functionality.
Unfortunately, there’s no word if this product will make it to the states and for how much. But from the reaction this product has been getting in the blogosphere, I wouldn’t be surprised if that changes soon. MORE »
