S1Digital 100-disc Blu-ray changer - Blu-ray Forum

wesnah · 02-16-2010, 04:43 AM

Here's something rather interesting. But comes with a $1500 price.

Wouldn't it be nice if you could browse and play back your entire Blu-ray movie collection with the click of a button? For $1,499, the S1Digital 100-disc Blu-ray changer delivers this level of convenience and the flexibility to download metadata and cover art automatically over the Web. All you need is to hook up the jukebox to a Windows Media Center-compatible PC and install its bundled My Movies software to access up to 1,000 Blu-ray, DVD, and CD titles through the intuitive WMC graphics user interface.By connecting this S1Digital box to a Windows Home server, users can also archive their media (without copy protection) onto a hard drive to free up disc slots with all the value-added features mentioned above. The S1Digital 100-disc Blu-ray changer can be purchased directly from the company's Web store.

Funny how it says the copy protected blu-ray can't be legally copied. But it is legal if you own the blu-ray disk and besides you can do this with your computer without paying for anything. It most likely compress the data too. Correct me if I am wrong but you would need a 3 - 5 TB HDD to store 100 blu-ray disks. I imagine it could have that much storage, but I would not doubt that it may be compressing the video. Wonder what OS they use. Windows can't recognize more than 2TB.

I seriously doubt that's based on Windows.

Windows is not reliable enough for most stuff. I honestly don't know why people still support Microsoft.

Anyways,... it is ugly.

I usually don't watch that many Blu Rays at a time either.

Edit - Actually ... reading up on it a bit... it may be using some form of Windows software. No wonder they say you can't return it. Eek.

Yeah it works with windows so I thought it maybe the kernel or some striped down version.

Maybe it's the fabled BFE (Bug Free Edition) not available to the general public.

But ... I doubt it.

If it runs WIndows then good luck to anyone who tries to use it.
