Read about it:
For those enjoying media bliss thanks to a little MediaSmart box humming away somewhere in the corner life just got a even more lovely. HP has announced a partnership with TiVo that allows MediaSmart users to install a Windows Home Server add-in, enabling the two devices to talk sweet nothings to each other. From within the WHS console you’ll be able to suck recorded content from the TiVo onto the MediaSmart’s expansive storage array and, from there, play it on any of your compatible devices (PC, Mac, Xbox, PS3, etc.). Or, when you start to miss those happy TiVo sounds, you can send that content back over to DVR to view from there. The WHS extension is available right now to MediaSmart owners, so get on with the downloading already.

Read about it:

There’s no bigger sport in March than College Basketball and CBS is once again stepping up its coverage of March Madness by covering the last three games in 3D. With some help from Cinedigm Digital Cineman Corp, 100 movie theaters throughout the nation will present the games in 3D for your viewing pleasure, but If you don’t live near a theater — or just want to find content for your new 3DTV — you might be in luck as CBS is also reaching out to cable and satellite providers about sharing the love. This is yet another live 3D broadcast to add to the others this year, which will hopefully be just the beginning of live 3D sports for years to come.

Read about it: 3DTVs get their big launch at Best Buy this week, but we kick off with talk of TiVo’s latest legal victory. We do talk 3D for some time though and can’t wait to see if the in store demos live up to what we saw at CES — we also take some time to try to clear up some confusion in regards to HDMI, 3D and all the requirements and standards. Finally we talk about why an IR emitter for a iPhone is a bad idea, why we don’t really care much about Real’s loss to the MPAA and why you should wait for the BBC’s version of Life on Blu-ray rather than watching it on Discovery.

The market is darn near flooded with HomePlug AV-compatible powerline solutions, but Zinnet has seen fit to one-up the networking mainstays by dishing out a product that serves not one, but four Ethernet-packin’ devices simultaneously. Designed for use with its brite-View CinemaTube (but fully capable of working with game consoles, Blu-ray players and media streamers), this two-piece kit allows internet content to flow through your home’s existing powerline network and hit up to four devices on the other end. Simply plug the solo port adapter into a wall socket beside your router or broadband modem, and the four port adapter in your home theater room (or den, for the simplistic among us). From there, you can connect your Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Roku set-top-box, Blu-ray player, CinemaTube deck or any other AV device that benefits from a wired internet connection; just like that, you’ve got a makeshift connection to four […] Hope you Enjoyed this HDTV informationrmation Blurb

Read about it:
Elgato’s original EyeTV Hybrid USB tuner wasn’t exactly oversized, but the company has nonetheless managed shrink things down a bit for the device’s latest revision, and it’s added some Windows 7 support for good measure. Most of the size reduction comes from ditching the analog connector found on the previous model (you’ll still get an adapter), and you’ll also now get a sturdier aluminum enclosure that stays in line with the company’s Mac-only roots. Otherwise, you’ll get the same support for over-the-air HD broadcasts as before, along with Elgato’s EyeTV 3 software, and an included remote control — all for the same $150 that the original model cost.

Read about it:
There’s more than just HDTVs on the way from Samsung this year, it’s also picked today to reveal the price and ship dates for its Samsung Apps-equipped Blu-ray HTIB systems (HT-C7530W pictured above and all due in March or April) and HDMI 1.4-equipped 3D passthrough compatible receivers. Even though the cool kids are already on to HDMI 1.4a, that should be good enough to pass through 3D video and handle audio all in one cable so if you’re planning a whole home theater revamp before Avatar comes home in 3D (whenever that is) you’ll probably want to grab one with the feature. Other than the 7.1 channel HW-C770BS for $549 shipping this month, there’s also a $499 HW-C900 model with multi-zone and video upscaling features for $499, though when it will arrive is still TBD.
