MX-760HD #1
I just acquired myself a new toy. The MvixUSA MX-760HD
It’s quite a nice little box. Basically it’s a mediaplayer that lets you play the majority of media through your TV. You can either stream your data from a network source or put an IDE drive inside it and dump everything onto that. Supposedly it also takes a USB thumbdrive and lets you play directly from that but I have yet to try it. I will be playing around with my camera tonight to see if I can get it to display the pics & mov’s directly from the camera.
I bought a 320Gig hard drive to put in side it (formatted as NTFS) and got it all working. You can put data on it via a USB link but when it’s plugged into your PC you can’t play anything at the same time.
It also supports NDAS which I have yet to get working (I’m waiting for a key to use it). Which should let me dump data on it via the network.
I did have a few issues getting the wireless working using the latest firmware (1.1.27). I use WPA2 AES encryption with a hidden SSID and the box refused to connect. When I dropped the wireless AP down to WPA1 TKIP & hidden SSID it connects without issues however. I logged a help request with Mvix and will see what comes of it.
