Santa
Clara, CA, 14 October 2005 – Niveus Media, Inc., manufacturer
of media entertainment devices for the high-end audio/video market,
is excited to announce its newest digital home solution, the Niveus
Disc Changer. With support for over a thousand DVD discs, the Niveus
Disc Changer paired with an award-winning Niveus Media Center running
Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 with Update Rollup 2, enables the
“My DVDs” feature within the Windows Media Center interface.
The “My DVDs”
feature provides an on-screen movie poster guide for each of the movies
stored on the device, allowing users to access their DVD collection
through the same familiar interface used to access the rest of their
digital media. Users simply click the poster of the movie they choose
to view, and the Niveus Disc Changer delivers the content to the Niveus
Media Center. Each Niveus Disc Changer can support 200 discs and can
be coupled with additional changers to support a DVD library well beyond
a thousand discs.
“The Niveus
Disc Changer provides an easy to use, drop and play solution for families
to organize and playback their entire DVD Library from within the Niveus
Media Center,” said Tim Cutting, CEO of Niveus Media. “The
Niveus Disc Changer plays an important role in the home’s digital
media ecosystem; enabling DVD Library functionality is only the beginning.”
“We’re
pleased that Niveus Media continues to take full advantage of the power
of the Windows XP Media Center Edition platform,” said Joe Belfiore,
general manager of the Windows eHome Division at Microsoft Corp. "Niveus
continues its first-to-market tradition with the addition of the Niveus
Disc Changer.”
