MCE Wishlists

Filed under: MCE — tvharmony @ 3:45 pm

Thomas Hawk blogging from eHomeUpgrade, describes his wishlist for what he’d like to see in MCE moving forward. He’s got a lot of interesting ideas, trying to move MCE from DVR into home convergence central.

While I may have to wait a while for MCE to walk the dog at regular intervals, I’d add home security webcams to the package. When I travel and my wife hears a noise in the middle of the night, it would be a lot better for her to flip through the cameras on our bedroom television as opposed to walking around the house with a baseball bat. Add a secure internet connection, and it would also be handy during vacations to check to see if the house burned down from an internet cafe on some beach somewhere.

Tivo HME

Filed under: Tivo — tvharmony @ 3:35 pm

While I was away, Tivo released a new SDK targeted at letting developers create new functionality on the Tivo. According to everything I’ve read, it’s a big step forward from the original SDK release with the Tivo Desktop/Home Media Option.

TivoBlog has some nice post on it here as well as a discussion with Leon, creator of JavaHMO.

PVRBlog has also created a nice resource for hme.pvrblog.com which I’ll be adding to TVHarmony.com’s links.
