My Linksys Extenders have arrived

Having waited for for Media Center Extenders to come to the UK for years today two have arrived at once!

Linksys have sent me a DMA2100 and DMA2200 for a review. So I plan on unboxing and recording my first impressions tonight.  Is there anything I should be looking at or you would like me to focus on? I was thinking of streaming the session on Ustream.tv, is anybody interested in seeing it live or would you rather wait for the edited video?

Hi Ian,

can you provide details on their connectivity, the tv I am planning to use one on will need to be either connected by SCART or svideo, if you could provide details on how you find the quality using either of these, that would be great!

Thanks
Tony

Ian,

I read on The Green Button that the 4th zoom option is missing when playing video. Could you confirm this for me as I use that setting a lot.

Thanks,

Peter.

there is no 4th zoom mode, I haven't tried the DMA2200 yet but I bet its the same

Hi Ian,
Can you help me? I´m preparing to order the DMA2200, but before doing so, I really would like to know first if it supports external “srt” and “sub” files ? Also Avi, Divx, Xvid and H264. I've been reading about this in some forums but there is not avaiable or correct data. Thanks a lot.

I will try this, do you have a good example file I could try?
I am getting a HDMI cable and run the tests again

Does the system play MP4 video?  Specially those produced by Nero Recode in simple profile.  Or Nero advanced profiles?

Hi Iand,
Any .avi file with a .srt file, both with exactly same name, on the same folder will do the job. I Have some exapmples, yes.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Iand,
How do you get the media extender to show the .srt subfile ????
I have tried to place an avi file together with a .srt file, both with exactly same name, in the same folder.
BUT.... it will NOT do the job....
