Acogito launches place-shifting PVR

PRINT| E-MAIL|MORE
AcogitoAcogito's newest box set-to-box combines your basic TiVo and Slingbox functionality, allowing you to record HDTV and stream it over the internet to your broadband-connected PC. If history has taught us anything, it's hard to best either of these companies on an ease-of-use front, but an all-in-one box sounds cool enough that we're willing to root for the underdog.

The "Roaming Machine," (their name, not ours), streams video using the H.264 codec.

The Roaming Machine comes in three different varieties:
  • A US version for recording ATSC/QAM/NTSC signals
  • A European version for recording DVB-S/DVB-T/PAL signals
  • A "worldwide" model that handles IPTV sources
Acogito is also launching a "RoamingTV," which is an LCD TV with similar place-shifting capabilities.
No word on pricing or availability.
