Nvidia Shield TV Review

Nvidia Shield TV Review

A quick review of the Nvidia Shield TV. It supports 4K streaming from Netflix and Youtube. At the time of this video, the Shield TV is perhaps the only Android Media Player that supports HD Audio formats. (Dobly TrueHD & DTS-HD). It also supports side-loading Android apps, which makes it one of the most flexible Android media players available. I personally think this is better than the Minix and Roku. 

Logitech Harmony Hub Review

Logitech Harmony Hub Review

Logitech has recently changed the names of their remotes/hubs. Please see below for new naming information:

Harmony Smart Control = Harmony Companion
Harmon Home Hub = Harmony Hub

All of Logitech's hubs can be controlled using the Harmony smartphone app. All of the hubs are also capable of connecting with other smart hubs such as SmartThings, Alexa, Lutron, and Hue. 

The Harmony Companion/Smart Control comes with the Harmony hub and the RF remote. The smart remote works through the Home Hub and both of them require an internet connect in order to function. 

This video is a review, comparison, and overview of Logitech Harmony Smart Control, Companion, and Harmony Home Hub.

Short-throw Projector Shootout

So you're in the market for a projector but you don't have the space to put your projector 15 feet away from your screen? The answer is a short throw projector and the great news is that you can get one for less than $1000. Budget projectors have seen tremendous success over the past few years. BenQ and Optoma have been at the forefront and capitalized on this success by offering some great inexpensive options for consumers with limited space. Not only are these projectors sharp, but they are also very bright and have features that you would expect to see on a $1800 projector.
