RE: Re: GoVideo Network DVD Player

["Graham Howe" <graham@xxxxxxx>]

In that case it is surely the same as 'sharing' the DVD drive on a PC
acros=
s the network, so from a client point of view no different to ripping from
=
the DVD. Personally I would question the value in sharing a dvd across the
=
network in this way, why not simply play it locally? DVD players are less
t=
hat =A350 now and if you have to go and physically load the disk into the
d=
rawer, then there is no advantage in networking is there?

In fact, after a quick read at the GoVideo site, this seems to be a
network=
client rather than server. In which case it is very similar in functional =
terms to the Kiss units available in the UK (at Letsautomate and Scan for
e=
xample) and would not share it's DVD across the network. IMHO avoid it, it
=
does not seem to allow full DVD playback from a networked source.
