Hands-on with the XStreamHD boxes
by Steven Kim, posted Jan 8th 2008 at 3:40PM
We just got a glimpse of the XStreamHD box to share. Details on the service are thin at this point, but here's some pictures of the hardware. Both the Media Library unit and the Media Receiver boxes are here in all their mysterious glory. With no studios signed on yet, our hopes for this setup are mild, to say the least. All the connections for a simple, effective setup are here, though: coax inputs, eSATA, gigabit ethernet and removable drive bays for the Library unit; and an external USB port on the Receiver.

Full release after the jump.
XStreamHD details emerge, DTS-HD and up to 2TB storage
Details about the new satellite HD provider, XStreamHD are starting to come to light in advance of their press conference tomorrow. We already knew about collaboration with DTS, and now thanks to a press release we know that the promised 7.1-channel audio will be coming to you in DTS-HD MA format. Similarly, the press release reveals that the Seagate drives in the box allow you to stuff in 2TB of content. Good stuff, but the question we're really waiting to see answered is all about what content will be available. The device is coming into focus, so XStreamHD hopefully will bring some answers to their press conference for us.
