NBox - What is the nbox?
A little while ago I posted a review of the WD TV Live media box for viewing downloaded and streaming content on the TV.
The WD box is fantastic, but weighing in at around £100 it may seem a little pricy for what it is.
So what if you want to view downloaded content on your telly at a fraction of the cost?
I give you the NBOX - a fantastic multimedia player for music, video and pictures on any TV.
Typically the nbox is alot cheaper than the WD TV Live box usually weighing in at around £15 - £25 on ebay including your shipping. It is small also - about the size of 2 audio cassette tapes (remember those)
So What is it?
the NBox is a small box that needs connecting to mains power and the TV via scart or HDMI and although there is no internal memory it will take SD memory cards or USB memory sticks, as these are very cheap now and capacity wise they can easily pack in 4-5 hours of DVD quality video. HD video is also supported - as long as you have the source files and a big enough memory.
Supported video files include MPEG-1, MPEG-2, DivX, Xvid, AVI, MPG, MPEG, DAT RMVB and VOB
Suported Audio Files include MP3, WMA, WAV and RM
Supported Image / Photo Files include JPEG, BMP and GIF so is actually a great device for performing slide shows of those holiday snaps.
The package includes a remote control, AV cable and power cable best check the full description on ebay (see latest available below) for component details as they may vary.
Video can come from the PC
