4.0 out of 5 stars Media Center friendly, yes; UPnP client, no, February 7, 2008

This review is from: Cisco-Linksys Media Center Extender with DVD (Personal Computers)
My initial impression are (1) if all you want is a media center extender to do what it is intended to do, then this is definitely the purchase you should make; (2) do not expect anything other than just the media center function and dvd function, that's all your going to get; (3) if the video, music, or picture is not supported by windows media connect *** AND HAS THE CORRECT BITRATE*** it is not going to play; (4) even if your media center pc can playback a file doesn't necessarily mean the extender will play it back, all the processing of the file is done on the extender and the only codecs that get supported are those listed in windows media connect.

I was expecting better codec support from Linksys, but it looks as if Linksys only has their name on the product. It really should have Microsoft on it. You don't need a Vista PC for playback of the dvd function. For you people that like to encode video on your computer and are thinking about using an extender to view it, be... Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Lots of little problems..., March 9, 2008

I have always been a big fan of Linksys products and I was eagerly awaiting the release of the Linksys DMA 2200. Setup out of the box was pretty easy but when I started using the product I noticed a slew of little issues that, together, make this product not worth the investment. Below is a list of the issues I've experienced:

1) DVD playback freezes/skips slightly every once in a while. This is just infrequent enough to where you might be willing to live with it. It seems that when the wireless network connects or disconnects (due to range or signal strength issues) the DMA pauses for a split second to regain its bearings. There is a little on screen notfication that the network is disconnected (or reconnected as the case may be) and this causes the DVD playback to pause for a split second. I'm not sure why Linksys thought it was important to interrupt my movie to let me know that the wireless network was down especially when I'm not using the network at all, but... Read more

I purchased the Linksys Media Center Extender with high hopes it would complete my home theatre. After many hours on line with Linksys tech support I reluctantly returned the item to Amazon. I could not get the Linksys MCE to work with my HP laptop running on 64bit Vista Ultimate. I even used two different draft N routers to no avail.

On the positive side, I found Linksys Tech Support to be readily available and very patient with my having to reboot and re-enter my WPA passphrase numerous time.

I will continue to look for an MCE that has Hi-Def capability.
