Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - no dvd playback
Cannot use to play a DVD off your computer? What's the point... save your money.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - No Need for Tivo/DVR
This product works as advertized. I connected to my Samsund LN52650A, to gain benefit of Anynet+ capability. It was a little "wierd" to connect, but easy enough, just make sure you go to the "source" in order to gain access to the extender.

Thought I would be able to play DVDs from my PC but stangley enough that capability is not available.

No need to spend more on other models. Well priced, and a benfit to connecting to a Samsung screen because of the mounting plate availbe on the rear of the TV.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Unit Has Lots of Potential...But Needs A Few Good Updates
Recently picked up the Samsung MediaLive Digital Media Adapter and have been using it on my Samsung 46A650 television for about three days. Does a nice job playing multimedia content (pictures/mpeg video) directly from my computer via a wireless connection and the interface is top notch (uses Windows Media Center).

However, I'm very disapointed with the adapter's codec support. First off, it doesn't support flash - so forget about YouTube or .flv videos. Also, doesn't support a whole host of streaming video content (windows media, RayV, etc), which you discover when you try to play video through proprietary services offered through WMC. As for so called Netflix on-demand support....where is that? Using a third-party plugin for WMC, I was unable to get Netflix films to run.

Overall, this unit has lots of potential, but I certainly hope that future software updates will provide better codec support.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Superb For TV, Limited internet content support
ABSTRACT

Drop-dead simple and reliable extender for those with Vista Media Center (VMC) and select 2008 model Samsung TVs. The most tightly integrated option for compatible Samsung TVs, though less functionality than a Microsoft developed solution (second PC or XBOX).

-----
TECHNICAL DETAILS

Network connectivity Support: wireless (802.11a/g/n) and wired network support, though wired is suggested for high-definition content. There is an integrated bandwidth tester to help avoid/troubleshoot bandwidth related playback issues.

TV/stored Video content support: Live/Recorded TV streaming from VMC, and other stored video in WMV, MPEG2, MPEG 4, H-264 formats.

Online content support: Uses VMC as a proxy. Streams CinemaNow movies, and MSNBC, possibly others but the list is short due to limited codec support on the MediaLive. To my chagrin, it currently does _not_ support Netflix, even when using VMC extensions that do ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't waste your money!
200$ is too much for just a media extender that only working with Samsung HDTV and Windows media center. You can get a cheaper extender like the Neuros OSD Media Center (6011000) that would work with just about any media server software. For around the same price you can get a Xbox 360 Arcade Holiday Bundle that would do the same thing plus gaming but I suggest that you double down and get a Playstation 3 80GB it going to cost you more but you get a Blue ray player and upgradeable internal hard drive with just about any laptop hard drive you can get your hands on.
