Engadget HD reviews VUDU's high-definition side

by Darren Murph, posted Feb 12th 2008 at 1:00PM

Yeah, the critics have already had their shot at the VUDU, but now that the latest software update has towed in support for HD streaming, Engadget HD figured it prudent to dedicate a review specifically to the high-definition capabilities of the movie set-top-box. Eager to see if it's worthy of being connected to your HDTV? Come on over, the water's fine.

After the dreadful closing down of stage 6 I'll have to say I was a bit sad and thinking where to go on from here and feed my hunger for top quality divx videos. Luckily while surfing, I stumbled upon divxvine.com ..you just gotta love those social bookmarking sites these days don't you . DivxVine.com is a free DivX video hosting provider, it is dedicated to host only divx video files(.divx, .avi). This site is one of a kind, a real treat for anyone who loves DivX videos. You can upload videos, download, view, share or embed the videos on your own sites/blogs or anything you could literally think of.

Simply choose an account, unregistered users get 1x100mb video upload, registered get 1x300mb video upload and you also get premium accounts with 1gb file uploads, premium users get a lot more benefits as well. If you have a website with high traffic and need to deliver high quality DivX videos, then your choice would be the dedicated plan, you rent a full server just for your website without the hassle of leeching and expensive bandwidth charges.

DivxVine is totally new and original way of providing DivX videos for virtually anyone, Gamers can show of their latest games captures in high definition, independent film makers and musicians can now deliver that high quality video they always wanted. These are just a few examples, the list goes on and on

To all former stage6 users who had a heart attack when stage6 went down, I welcome you to DivxVine.com - a different way to enjoy your DivX videos.
