SanDisk lets you see video from PC on TV if you’re patient
USA Today – Oct 31, 2007
SanDisk says another major network is coming but wouldn’t spill the beans. You can’t use TakeTV with Apple’s iTunes or other sites where you buy shows. The service is compatible with MPEG-4 DivX and Xvid video formats but you’re on your own locating any movies or other such files on your computer. When you do find an acceptable file you drag and drop it onto the TakeTV drive just as you copy files onto a regular flash drive. I was able to watch family video I’d shot but other transferred footage off my hard drive would not play. TakeTV cannot handle high-def programming.
Review: Toshiba gigabeat T400 personal media player
infoSync World – Oct 31, 2007
The device is designed to play purchased DRM’d video files from sources like CinemaNow but both the available library and implementation into Windows Media Player 11 doesn’t even come close to the iTunes Music Store. While the disappointing library of DRM content doesn’t bother us too much the device’s sheer contempt for other formats did. When we attempted to import a file encoded with the popular DivX codec onto the T400 the MTP immediately began to transcode the file for playback onto the device. Not only was the process painfully slow but once we attempted playback on the device the quality was beyond unacceptable. The image was horribly pixelated and the player seemed to drop frames at least once every four or five seconds. The only videos we were able to get to play with any success on the player were home videos encoded in WMV format although we assume similar success could be had with PlaysForSure movies downloaded from CinemaNow or other outlets. We imagine importing recorded TV shows from a Windows Media Center PC would be as simple as compatible music is but as we did not have a Windows Media Center machine we could not test it.
