With the launch of Korean company DVico's TViX (Television Integration Xtreme), an all-in-one multimedia hub, the days of cluttered entertainment centres appear to be numbered. Beneath the hub's sleek, cylindrical appearance lies a multitude of media playback and storage capabilities, including the ability to playback high definition video at resolutions of up to 1,920 x 1,080, playback of various formats including .avi, .wmv, .mpg and .mp4, audio playback (.mp3, .wma, .AAC and more), DVD playback with the option to create one's own virtual DVD library, and an internal hard drive. Optional components that add to the hub's functionality are also released periodically, including a HDTV tuner to watch or record HDTV over the air, as well as a digital tuner and recorder. The cost of swapping all your media players for this electronic marvel? A mere US$546.
