Re: Wireless Home Theater

said by Matt See Profile :

... I wonder if the range would be great enough to replace WiFi as the streaming transport from a PC to a media center extender?
Sure. With the bandwidth to burn they would mesh great. Every device would become a micro node. Wired to the 3rd hop is still 225 Mbps. 55 Mbps at 6 hops is still enough for a few HD channels simultaneous, and some fast ast internet. I would think there to be a natural market for the elimination of signal wires, and UWB has the jizm to do the job.

Now if we could only get the movie industry to "allow" us to legally (and easily) move our DVD content from the discs to computers. (By "allow" I mean consumer grade software or devices that don't get sued out of existence by the MPAA.)

Imagine bringing home a new DVD and putting it into your Home Video Server. The HVS rips your DVD to a file and shares it (video, menus, extras and all) with any TV in that home that has a Wireless Home Video Receiver connected to it.

Right now I rarely buy DVDs because they get watched once and then wind up sitting on the shelf in unorganized stacks. It would be much better to be able to put the movie into some sort of home On-Demand system. Unfortunately, the movie industry is so busy worrying about the five people that would pirate the movies to see the income potential of the five hundred who would buy and watch more movies.

I would love to do the same thing. For now, I am sparingly buying movie downloads from cinemanow until something better comes out.

There are standards for legally streaming protected content. See:

»en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DTCP

At the time we looked into it it was only allowed over a wired network.
