Maybe I should edit the conclusion to make this more clear.Īlso, I'll reiterate again that I just didn't see a huge difference on my TV between 640x480 and the next notch down. But from my non-console-owner standpoint I was looking at the whole package as a sort of next-generation 'This Is The Future of Home Entertainment' type thing.

(I don't actually own a PS2 and I had to borrow one for the review.) If I was already a PS2 owner and I was just reviewing QCast solely as a piece of PS2 software, then I might have taken it down to an 8 or so for the aforementioned interface gripes. the other networked media players mentioned), and that's what I really gave a 9/10. You know, now that I think about it, I think the issue is that I reviewed the PS2 + QCast combo as a networked media player solution (vs. But I actually just care that it's quite usable and that it works as advertised. Now, if I were a Real Mac User of the hardcore variety I'd have probably took off points for the anemic yellow look, the lack of metadata support, the lack of a nice color foldout of the menu map, the lack of handy little labels that tells you which screen is located where, etc. The fact that I spent so much time making suggestions is actually because I liked the product so much. That's because I spent a lot of time nitpicking on minor things that I wished they had improved, mostly involving the interface. If we were to outlaw products based on this logic then we would never have seen tape decks, VCRs, PCs and who knows what else. PS FWIW I see no legal issues with this product at all based on that fact that it ccould be used to watch (arguably) illegal copies of movies (for example).

I however do not own a PS2, nor do I have a significant library of digital media on my PC (no movies, about 3GB of mp3s), but I'm sure I will in the future and when I do I imagine that QCast will have become significantly more refined. I'm sure there are millions of people who own PCs and PS2s who would love this kind of thing. Like the cell phone that can control a Mac, the world needs more convergence products that utilize already existing equipment in new ways.

That said I think that the idea behind the software is pure genius. There seemed to be far too many negatives for just a one point drop. Nice review, though I too am somewhat confused as to how QCast got a 9/10. To date nothing really seems to hit all of these points, except perhaps an HTPC.

Rip out the crap you don't need in this box, especially an optical/hard drive. Looks good enough to sit in a stack of consumer electronics (DVD, VCP, reciever, etc) When the next big audio/vidio codec comes out, I want to be able to use it ASAP. My current file server runs on FreeBSD, I'm not about to change it. Funky 3D audio visualisation (this seems to be a no-brainer for PS2/XBox-based solutions) Support for HDTV resolutions (mainly for better navigation, more readable fonts, coolness factor, etc) SPDIF audio connection, component video connection

Plays everything (MP3, OGG, Real Audio, JPEG slideshows, DivX, XviD, MPEG, Quicktime Sorensen, Streaming HTTP, etc etc)

Usable with a standard universal remote. Save/edit playlists _on the PC_ and have them available on the device. Easy to navigate by either directory structure or by ID3/OGG tag query. I have been thinking for a while about the best (cheapest) way of getting my media collection accessible on the TV downstairs. New network enrollments or network upgrades are easily done using the Zero Touch deployment feature, that enables you with the option to provision new network equipment out-of-band to ensure compliancy and allow smooth migration without configuration conflicts or overlap.Looks like a great device.
