CFULLHDMA gebruikt in Gbit project

Damn.. lees ik net een stuk in Emerce  dat de CFULLHDMA gebruikt is (4 stuks) in een test opstelling voor 1Gbit Internet bandbreedte.

GNA  heeft samen met BBNed en InterNLNet getests met 1 gbps internet verbinding in een gesimuleerde consumentensituatie.

Grote vraag is waar consumenten die 1 gbps-verbinding eigenlijk voor nodig zouden hebben.
Het antwoord lijkt HDTV via internet te zijn.
De drie partijen toonden woensdag vier HDTV’s die live via internet Full HD-kwaliteit stonden te streamen.
Een nieuwe HD-netwerksettopbox van Conceptronic (CFULLHDMA, dennis), een van de eersten die Full HD aankan, gaf het signaal door aan de tv.

Daar had ik graag bij willen zijn ;-)

en dan is ook leuk te lezen dat de bottleneck de HDD van de PC is ;-)

#2: kreeg als tip dat we vandaag de hardware.info magazine uit de winkel ‘s moeten gaan lezen …

bluf 2008

wat voor nut heeft het tekenen van een petitie, steun advertentie, weet ik veel hoe je het wilt noemen als de meest grote onzin er tussen staat: ik zie een stuk of 20 normale namen en dan begint het:

  • Thomas (afwasser), asdasd (asdasd),
  • Piet Petroleumlap (Postbesteller),
  • Wijnerd (Duiventeler),
  • Je Moeder (Held),
  • pipo (clown),
  • Kim Il Jong (Despoot),
  • Henk Herrie (Stenengooier)
  • OP NAAR DE VOLGENDE (OPGEKNOOPTE WIJNAND),
  • Femke (JaKnikker),
  • Tofu Dibi (kansenhomo)
  • Achmed (Scooterdief),
  • Volkert van der G. (Verlosser),
  • R.Underlap (Boeroeper)
  • Kees Kraker” (Werkloos’),
  • PeeVeeVee (Gasantwerkluilakken),
  • Fapke Halsema (MILF),
  • Mohammed (shoarma zij met hem),
  • Eddy Wally (Zuiplap),
  • Bart Brandlap (pyrotechnicus),

En dan zielig vertellen dat je advertentie niet geplaatst wordt is simpelweg niet meer dan een 1 – 2tje en is dan een makkelijke weg voor gratis reclame voor je site. (goedkoper dan een advertentie die men toch niet leest). Dus jongens: leuk!, maar een beetje controle op hoe men e.e.a. kan ondertekenen zou handig zijn

CFULLHDMA: GNU/GPL DMS Server Software

Ah kewl .. for the CFULLHDMA we just released the GNU/GPL sourcecode for the Windows application tool which is delivered with the device. People who program might or could be using this to check, improve, hack the software to their needs ..

Next to that the release of the New and improved DMS software. Please de-install any previous installation of the software before installing this version

CFULLHDMA Beta firmware release 1.09.41

I was really disappointed to withdraw the firmware of yesterday due to some serious issues. Due to the special feature of using SRT files with the CH3SNAS the iMedia part stopped working. Damn..

After debugging we found the main reason and we can announce a new beta firmware and fixing some other issues as well:

  • Fixed iMedia hang (not working)
  • Fixed some avi files could not be played
  • Fixed MP3 with embedded picture
  • New: add NFS to support extern CD cover for audio files

Firmware file will be available for beta testers. They will be informed by mail

note: many ‘internet streams’ will work properly now! (like uitzendinggemist, sbs6 uitzending gemist etc..) some like: rtl4 uitzendinggemist are under debugging.

CH3SNAS: 1.04RC6 firmware release

Set the time by using NTP or from Computer, but when restart the device the time is set back an hour.
Settings uses:
NTP Server: nl.pool.ntp.org

Issue fixed

When using Mozilla Firefox 3.0.1 than we can create a new user, all is ok

MediaTitan

Ah .. I see that people at work made public one of our latest projects: The Conceptronic MediaTitan and someone told mpcclub after reading the newspage

a complete new kind of media player (yep all kind of formats can be played (like the cfullhdma)) / recorder with DVB-T functionalities. Especially for those countries with large DVB-T usage (free to air) .. the remote control is awesome rocking in usability but totally different in what people are used to use …

the design is slick and slim and it was kept very simple.

Internal is a nice new processor (will be revealed later) ;-)

Especially on the GUI the dev team has worked hard for many month’s to get a nice usable GUI (Graphical User Interface)

A small hint or tip of the main menu:
