Yuixx Info

Even weer wat Yuixx informatie …

Voor het eind van het jaar moet de Conceptronic YuiXX op de markt komen. Het wordt de eerste mediaspeler ter wereld die gebaseerd is op de Intel CE3100 chip en daarmee is het apparaat krachtiger dan welke andere mediaspeler dan ook (Volgens Koen Crijns van Hardware.Info).

Ga me niet vastpinnen op een release datum .. die kan en ga ik je niet geven ;-)

Hardware.Info had / kreeg en heeft de primeur vandaag met extra info en een filmpje op de website waarin een introductie van de Yuixx, de GUI en functionaliteit wordt weergegeven.

Persbericht: 2L International – Conceptronic

Ik krijg de afgelopen dagen veel vragen omtrend de situatie van 2L / Conceptronic. Graag wil ik éénieder verwijzen naar het persbericht wat gepubliceerd is. Ook bij Hardware.Info staat e.e.a Dit zal de meeste vragen beantwoorden.

YuiXX news: Steve would be impressed ;-)

Running Mozilla on the Conceptronic YuiXX with Intel’s CE3100 SoC

• 33MB Memory usage of the whole browser application
• Only 2~6% CPU usage is being used by the browser application
• Just 1.2 seconds Onetime startup of the browser application

This Application is running at 1080p @ 60Hz, natively on the OpenGL ES 2.0 and OpenVG of the Intel CE 3100 processor.

Enough power is left for other applications like: Multiple Applications in the Widget Channel, Samba, NFS etc.. More surprises will be revealed later.

Yuixx – CE 3100 – Streaming HD media Player / IPTV solution

2L International & Metrological announced today in a press release the first ready-to-market streaming HD media Player / IPTV solution based on Intel(r) Media processor CE 3100 (Metrological press release including images can be found here)

Involved in the project I can of course tell and show a little more than what the press release is announcing. In short: The device is focussing on HD content, streaming media and much more! I’m impressed about the quality of the Intel CE 3100 (aka Canmore SoC) which is totally different from all the solutions I have seen before and worked with. Yes it does 1080p at 1920*1080, it has HDMI 1.3a, Composite, Component, Stereo, S/PDIFF optical, USB at the back and USB at the front, SD/MMC cardreader and optional: smartcard reader & all kinds of Digital Tuner cards.

Last year Intel & Yahoo announced the availability of Widgets and they can be embedded as well. What to think about Twitter on your TV or Flickr or many other Widgets?

At birth the guys of Conceptronic gave the HD Media Player the name: YUIXX (pronounce as DJuukes as like jukebox)

As the framework can use up to four hardware optimised graphical layers with optional alpha layers the GUI can and will be an awesome experience.

Of course I can reveal some other images as well which will give you a slight preview of the functionality

Discuss freely about the Yuixx in the forum. You can ask for features, functions, usability, GUI etc.. and where possible it will be used, considered, answered

CH3MNAS – successor and replacer of CH3SNAS

A nerdy image of 4 CH3SNASses and on the left the little new brother CH3MNAS.
More images of the internal parts will follow ;-)

Questions answered:
functionality is similar as CH3SNAS but it has more flashmemory so we can upgrade certain services and programs.
fun_plug is working
toolchain is glibc rather than uclibc.

Beta Firmware 1.09.44.06/09 released

After getting only 1 or 2 serious issues reported in the 1.09.41.06/09 firmware (failing DVD playback after x minutes and/or some issues with DVD menu) we analyzed some content and found the bug and could solve it which resulted in the release of 1.09.44.06. The user experience should be awesome now if it was not already ;-)

It’s the intention to release this version to the public through the official channel.

Release note for 1.09.44.06/09:

Fixing playback of DVD video causing the CFULLHDMA to crash/hang
Fixing some AVI files giving too few IFrames, causing the CFULLHDMA to hang
Fixing a bug causing no sound to have on HDMI when changing video output when playing music files
