Vudu, VOD Streamer
Vudu sent us their Video on Demand BX-100 box to test and we spend plenty of time viewing titles and playing with the UI, enclosed is a review of the system. In addition, on November 18th, the company released their XL2, a single space rack unit designed for professional home theater installations. With a terabyte of storage space, or over 500 films, the XL2 provides IP and IR control that allow it to be integrated into most high-end home control systems (for example, systems by Crestron would be in this class) Also, with 1080i HD output over component, the ability to route and switch HD signals through the home with the use of off-the-shelf video switchers. What's the bottom line? While not a technical or measurable term, I have to say the image quality especially with respect to their HDX content was stunning...
