09.29.2008 — VidaBox is now shipping its RoomClientHD media extender that offers Blu-ray and DVD streaming.
RoomClientHD connects to any HD or SD TV via HDMI, DVI or VGA cables and offers 1080p upscaling/playback of all content.
It also supports lossless audio codecs and has an option for a built-in Blu-ray drive for local playback.
RoomClientHD comes preconfigured with Microsoft Vista Home Premium and a Media Center user interface.
VidaBox says the user needs Cat5e/6 cabling and one of the company's
media servers for RoomClientHD to work. VidaBox recently introduced its
RACK24 Server that has 22TB of storage.
