Mvix's MX-780HD wireless HD media streamer gets reviewed

Jul 5th 2008 7:36PM on Engadget HD

i got this Mvix to play my HD TivoDesktop rips. The MPEG2 files looked inferior when compared to playback through my PC (the PC was hooked up to the same TV so it's an apt comparison). It made HD content look like a regular DVD. Also, the AC3 audio wouldn't play. Maybe the tracks from TivoDesktop are corrupt, but they play on every media player on my PC - but no sound on the Mvix. Viewing pictures is a joke. You can't get full resolution on hi-res pics. And you can't use tag information in your mp3's. You can only browse by file name.

Nice idea, but needs better codecs and a better GUI

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
