Features of the Air WirelessHD Player

No more messy or ugly wires that make your beautiful HDTV look unkempt. The DVDO Air WirelessHD Player works wirelessly at 60 GHz and delivers 1080p video, along with 7.1 surround sound audio, to get you the best streaming media experience. The media player works well for both 2D and 3D video formats and works within a range of 30 meters. And that means you don’t have to have your set-top box, DVD or Blu-ray player close to the wall-mounted TV. All you need to do is connect the transmitter to the source and the receiver into your HDTV or other display device and you are all set for a top-class HD movie experience at home.

How it works?

The Air WirelessHD player is a wireless connector that uses a receiver and a transmitter to connect the source and output devices for HD media streaming, without lengthy cables crawling across the floor. The connector transmits the HDMI from your DVD, DVR, cable or satellite TV set-top boxes, laptops or any other source that has the uncompressed files, to your HDTV. The best part is that the sound and the picture quality you experience with the Air WirelessHD would be as good as it would be when you use the best HDMI cable for connectivity.

The device also comes with a mounting clip that makes connecting the wireless receiver on your HDTV easy.

Top-notch HD videos

Unlike other HD media streaming devices, which compress the HD video files for easy streaming, DVDO Air WirelessHD streams full HD files, without compressing them. This means, you will not have to compromise on the video quality with this wireless media player. Along with the 1080p video and 7.1 surround sound, this wireless streaming media player also supports 3D and CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), and is complete HDMI compliant. The media player functions on the 60 GHz technology to deliver the best streaming experience without any interference from WI-fi networks, mobile or cordless phones.

Great option for all

DVDO Air WirelessHD is a great option irrespective of what kind of home theatre system you have. The device aims at bringing the best quality video and audio to your living room, all while keeping the place free of multiple cables and wires. DVDO Air is compatible with a variety of home theater systems, and works well with home theater components like EDGE Green and DVDO Duo to enhance the experience. The product is available with the authorized dealers and retailers in the market for just $399, which is reasonable considering the features it comes with.

LG Google TV Features

LG’s Google TV is a combination of the popular Smart TV and 3D technology from LG and the easy-to-use Android operating system, which makes it an attractive option for home entertainment. By integrating the best technologies, LG aims at providing consumers an exciting new way of enjoying internet TV. Not only is the HDTV option thrilling, it is also very convenient, as it is powered with the Android interface that many users are familiar with.

LG had features two TV sets, as possible hardware to support the Google TV software. One is a 55 inch OLED and the other is a bigger 84 inch LCD TV. The manufacturer claims that the 55 inch TV has the lightest and the thinnest panel for a TV of that size – the panel is just 4 mm thick, and weighs no more than 3.5 KG. It offers 1920X1080 Full HD resolution along with excellent color, contrast and brightness options owing to the OLED technology.

The 84 inch LCD TV, on the other hand, offers Double HD with 4k resolution, giving you a great deal of detail, with top-quality color, contrast and brightness of picture. However, the 84 inch LCD is not the thinnest or the lightest for its size, given that it comes attached with a separate backlight.

CINEMA 3D Technology

The LG Google TV will be equipped with its in-house CINEMA 3D technology. As the name goes, the CINEMA 3D technology will allow you to watch 2D content in 3D with just a click of the remote. To enjoy this technology, you need to use the 3D glasses that are designed based on LG’s FPR or Film Patterned Retarder technology. These glasses are lightweight, battery-free and inexpensive too.

With this technology, LG’s Google TV promises an absorbing, yet simple and comfortable home entertainment experience.

Magic Remote and NetCast

Another very interesting feature of the LG Google TV is the Magic Remote Qwerty, which uses voice and gesture control technology. As the name says it, the remote also has a QWERTY keyboard on one side, with TV controls on the other.

Besides the Google TV, LG has also announced that it plans to develop its Smart TV platform on NetCast with the help of open web technologies like Linux and Webkit browser. The company plans to launch its Smart TVs with NetCast in around 85 countries. Rumor has it that LG is also working with Google to launch a Nexus TV sometime in the coming year.
