[Engadget] Gateway’s updated its Connected DVD Player, their progressive-scan DVD player which can also hook up to a home network for streaming audio and video files stored on a PC. The new version, the ADC-320, now works with 802.11g (which is the faster version of WiFi). But the big news is that it new player can also stream TV shows and other videos recorded on a Windows XP Media Center Edition PC. More here.
I couldn’t find any information on this on the Gateway site, but if true is awesome. Instead of building a MCE box for each TV, I’ll just go and plop Gateway DVD players on each and be able to view content on the network share.
Update: Ah! It’s just a software update. More info on the supported formats is here.
