DVB-T STB/MPEG2 Player That Can Access SMB Shares

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the cool-devices dept.

feanor writes "Siemens is realeasing beginning of November the Gigaset M740 AV (German text). This is a DVB-T set-top-box that can access SMB shares either via ethernet or WLAN and store its MPEG2 compliant streams. Alternatively it can be used as an MPEG2 streaming client. Other cool features include the ability to hook-up standard USB hard-drives as storage, a dual tuner architecture and a very cool design."

    If you don't know the acronyms, then this probably doesn't pertain to you. DVB-T is the Euopean Digital terrestrial Television standard. It's pretty neat really and allows for digital pay TV over the air. ATSC refers to the american standard
