The two questions I’ve been getting every day now are, “Phil, when will you be integrating Blu-Ray with my system” and “Phil, do I need an iPad?” Well the answers are yes and maybe.
Thanks to ReQuest we can add an IMC Intelligent Media Client with the new Sony Mega-Changer. This will let you archive unlimited DVD’s and up to 400 Blu-Ray Discs.
The IMC easily connects to your large screen TV or theater projector and allows for viewing of DVD movies stored on the server. The IMC on-screen display also shows weather and stocks, webcams, photos, online video from YouTube, Netflix and Hulu, homemade digital video and more.
With the Blu-Ray Connection Kit and a video switch, the IMC will also control the Sony Blu-Ray Megachanger allowing you to browse up to 400 Blu-Ray movies as easily as the rest of your IMC DVD collection.
Finally, I had to mention the existence of a device you may have heard of called the iPad. For now I’ll just say that I’m loving it. It’s a unique device that I’ve owned for a mere five days but I’m already thinking of new ways to use it every day. I’m most excited about integrating it with my AMX control systems. With the addition of one App from Apple’s App Store we can have this panel controlling your audio/video, lights, HVAC, and security. I’ll post as soon I know more.
