Iomega ScreenPlay TV Link adds BYO storage multimedia playback to any TV

by Richard Lawler, posted Aug 6th 2008 at 11:19AM


Although it seems like every TV shipping recently comes with USB ports and DivX compatibility packed in, if all you want is the ability to plug in a drive and play, the Iomega ScreenPlay TV Link may be right for you. Equipped with the same HDMI / component / composite outputs plus WAV, WMA, MPEG-1/2/4, MP3, OGG, AC3, AVI, DivX, XviD and JPEG file formats as the ScreenPlay HD, this unit forgoes the 500GB hard drive -- a far cry from the old ScreenPlay days when it was just a HDD -- in favor of a sleek 3.26 x 3.07 x .78-inch profile weighing less than 4 oz. Plug in your USB flash drive or FAT32 or NTFS formatted HDD and play or upconvert SD content up to 1080i with no problem. Granted it doesn't have the power of a full-fledged media streamer but as a $99.95 take-anywhere box (available now in the U.S., Europe later this month) it's probably worth a look.

Iomega's 500GB ScreenPlay HD multimedia drive touts HDMI

As the multimedia hard drive market continues to quietly swell in the shadows, Iomega is making sure it keeps pace with the competition by giving its long-standing ScreenPlay HD a few attractive extras. The unit has certainly come a long ways since its 60GB days, now packing a full half-terabyte of space, an HDMI port and component / composite connections to boot. Furthermore, the drive understands WAV, WMA, MPEG-1/2/4, MP3, OGG, AC3, AVI, DivX, XviD and JPEG file formats, upconverts SD content to 720p / 1080i and even comes bundled with a remote to keep your hindquarters firmly planted. Not too shabby for $218.45, but just make sure you've got a place laid out to hide this thing from straying eyes.

InFocus goes all DLP

by Matt Burns, posted Jun 9th 2006 at 11:02AM


InFocus has been a staple of the projector industry for some time now. The company is currently working on migrating their current line-up of DLP/LCDs to an all DLP offering. This decision came from an effort to streamline their company's product line. Hopefully this will help drive down the cost of their projectors if their sole chip provider is Texas Instruments.
