Mediagate MG-350HD Reviews

Media extenders, devices that pull content off your computer and put it on your TV, have become more popular with the launch of the Apple TV. And that very intuitive device has sparked competition, such as Netgear's Digital Entertainer EVA8000, which, sad...

Wirelessly loads its hard drive with content from your PC. Supports HD playback. Streams audio and photos from PC. Plays content off USB flash drives. Nice-looking user interface.

Lousy video-streaming capabilities. It's a pain to set up. Hard drive is not included. Manual needs a serious update.

It's the best dedicated media extender we've seen, aside from the Apple TV.

The A/V-streamer market has matured to a level where we're no longer willing to make allowances for missteps. Sorry, fellas.

Accommodates an internal hard drive (not included); can act as a USB host.

No HDMI, doesn't support FLAC; as configured, cannot stream photos and music simultaneously.

Easy to use, wide range of formats, runs at up to 1080p

Hard drive not included, HDMI not included, green coloured interface

A powerful and easy to use high definition media streamer.

Wireless MG-35, high-def, great sharing function

I accidently kicked the top of the Antenna and it is a little bent but oh well.

Decent media device but messy wireless setup. hope future software updates will address this. completely useless operating manual

- Viiv is still very much in its infancy, - Tower form factor and wired keyboard/mouse make it unsuitable for living room use, - No HDMI, component or composite video outputs, - Core 2 Duo based Viiv PCs due out soon, - No HDMI, - Slow boot cycle, - Fiddl...

The Mediagate MG-350HD is an excellent all-in-one home media solution -- as long as you're not timid about installing a hard drive.

Wireless works well once setup, streaming is faultless

Wireless was difficult to set up, Remote is ordinary, menu system for music is very plain and slow when streaming from a large music library.
