mjl wijst ons op een nieuwe versie van ATi's Multimedia Center, te weten 8.8. Dit programma heeft als doel het opnemen en afspelen van video via de tv-in en -out van een All-In-Wonder-videokaart. Vanaf versie 8.8 is het mogelijk om met behulp van Eazyshare de televisiebeelden op een andere computer in je netwerk te bekijken. Hiervoor moet de betreffende pc wel uitgerust zijn met een Radeon-kaart. In de release notes vinden we de volgende nieuwe features:
New Features[break]
- Eazyshare
The latest version of the ATi Multimedia Center now includes a new feature known as Eazyshare. This feature allows users to share TV, whether it is live or recorded. Eazyshare can be used when a PC that contains an ATi All-In-Wonder card is connected to any other PC on a home network, which contains a "Built By ATi" Radeon graphics card installed. The ATi All-In-Wonder card turns the users PC into a fully functional personal video recorder and Eazyshare extends that benefit to other PCs. A user can sit at any home networked PC (assuming it has a "Built By ATi" Radeon card) and watch TV with access to all the functions of a Personal Video Recorder. They can pause live TV, skip ad breaks, and get instant replays.
