External Hard Disk Media Player...

Alex53 · 7 Jun 2007 at 12:11

I am looking for an external hard disk enclosure that will play media (avi, mp3, mpeg4, vcd, vob, etc) with a TV out. That is easy enough to find. But, I would also like this same box to have an ethernet interface so that its networkable with my PC and I dont have to move it around to move media into the box.

The closest I have found is 2 separate conceptronics boxes, one is a standard enclosure without the ethernet and another one is a sort of gateway with wireless and ethernet interfaces. I'd really like to find this in one box.

Any ideas?

I persisted with my browsing and I think I found the perfect item. A Freecom Network Mediaplayer. You can get just the enclosure for under £100, and then put in a hard disk (IDE 3.5").

I wish OC stocked these

I prefere to buy from here than have to look for a competitor that will ship to Gibraltar.

Is this an area of little interest? Does no one have any of these or care about my post?

It's an area of quite specific interest

Maybe here might get some additional replies?
