The good news is that after four weeks of
being in Beta the super cool Niveus Movie Library is ready to go prime time. The bad news is that we can't afford to buy a Niveus Media Center, so we can't use it. But for those lucky few, you can now download the ultimate software that gives you access to just about every movie stored on your Media Center, no matter if you recorded it, ripped it -- yes even Blu-ray discs -- or downloaded it. And not only does it look cool, but you also get easy access to the cover art and meta data of each movie. As for the rest of the Vista Media Center community, we continue to wait for a nice plug-in that still looks like Vista Media Center, but with any luck Niveus will eventually be kind enough to share its new toy, the way it has with its
Media Center Companion software.

just do as i do and make 400x300 jpeg thumbnails for your movies and give them the same name as the movie. Works perfect and looks amazing!

That's great but the process to rip movies and try to get them to work in Media Center is not an easy task especially trying to get an extender to read them. Yes, you can make it work but it's a long and unstable process. At least with this, you rip and you're on your way.

It's not like Niveus is doing DVD streaming for you. Playback on extenders still presents the same issues.

But will it stream my vintage HD DVD's?
