Help, cant find a certain hardware

[rayer]

Friend of mine has a piece of hardware that connects directly to his TV via a SCART socket.

This piece of hardware is small in size and has a harddisk inside it so you can store all your video PC files on it (.AVI etc).
It then plays it all fine onto your TV. Anyone have any idea what this box is or where I can get one from. He said he picked it up on a high street store for only £130 ??

It might be something like a D-link media player... http://www.dlink.com/products/category.asp?cid=127&sec=0
?

My god JPMONKEY69, you might of just cracked it. I thought these only streamed media, but some also have USB ports for pen drive connectivity. hmmmmmmmmmm

His version actually had an internal harddrive ??? but at least I have something to go on now, thanks

so do some of the D link ones I believe, others can only access stuff on a network.
