The Ashes
Ready for the HD
If, like many people, you now own a “HD Ready” TV and haven’t yet splashed out on a Bluray player or some subscription HD broadcasting, then you may be happy to know there is an alternative.
The Western Digital TV HD Player is a tiny device that links to your TV via a HDMI or composite cable (though I’m not sure why you’d use composite), and allows up to two USB hard drives to be linked to it. Now, the beauty of it is that these hard drives can contain pretty much whatever file type you want (whether it be .mkv, .avi or .wmv files …the list goes on) and the WD TV HD Player is capable of playing them, and play them well – even 1080p movies!
All this costs around £80 at the minute; an absolute bargain for anyone with a lot of home movies and pictures.
Small, but it does the job!
