Cisco-Linksys Dual-Band Wireless A/G Media Center Extender WMCE54AG Reviews
| 112 of 115 people found the following review helpful  Good execution on great vision, By This review is from: Cisco-Linksys Dual-Band Wireless A/G Media Center Extender WMCE54AG (Personal Computers) I really like this product. I really like Media Center 2005. But more than anything else, I LOVE the IDEA of this product -- a networked device that helps unite the living room to the home office, giving you one place to put your pictures, videos, and music. This is a great generation one product. I can't wait to see what the next couple of generations bring.That said, here are the things to be aware of when purchasing: 1) You need to know (or find someone to help you who knows) the basic fundamentals of home networking and Windows. This is not a completely plug and play installation. 2) You must have a very strong network connection between your Media Center 2005 device and your Media Center Extender. Ideally, you would have a wired connection (i.e., using old fashion cables). But I use the Wireless-G option and it works great now -- but I had to spend a good deal of time tuning the placement of my wireless router to ensure optimal connectivity...

The only supported formats are MPEG-1, MPEG-2 or WMV (standard definition only, not high def). In addition, it will not work if these videos have AC3 or Dolby Digital Audio, only 2 channel audio works. See details from the Microsoft Website below: Video file formats supported: * Windows Media Video 9 main profile * WMA Standard audio * Max resolution 720x480 * Max bit-rate 4Mbps * WMV content may be Windows Media DRM-protected * MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 standard definition * MPEG-1 layers I and II audio So, if you have a big video library on your hard drive, you may not be able to watch them with your Media Center Extender without first transcoding them...

This obviously eludes some of us.Please review Microsofts website MCE area for info on MCE PCs and detailed specs for the extender. Observations: 1. 480i output via Composite, S-Video or Component jacks. No Enhanced TV 480p nor HDTV 1080i or 720p at this time. Not sure that a software only update could fix this. 2. Recommend Wired connection for both the MCE PC and Extender connected via a switch not a hub. You can do a/g wireless, but video over wireless is tough trick and will need to be tuned for good signal strengths. 3. Audio - Great playback via the extender. Provides ability to play recorded music in a number of formats. 3. Video - Over a wired connection it is great. You can watch TV via the TV tuner or recorded shows saved to the MCE PC hard drive...
