Page 1 of 13 IntroductionIn all honesty, what really is an HTPC? Nothing more than a regular PC with some special software, or extra hardware, installed, that gives it some extra multimedia capabilities. People spend hundreds to thousands of dollars on these complex systems for simple multimedia functions. Is it really all that necessary? Buying or building a completely new computer just to play some music or movies on a television? If you browse around the Internet, there are hundreds of guides on how to build these HTPCs and they all require a ton of time and effort and above all ..... money.
Do you have need for a dedicated media player? Something that can store and output your entire movie library in full 1080p HD? How about store and play your entire music catalogue? Hold all of our precious pictures and present them on command? Or maybe stream movies from sites like Hulu and Youtube? How about something that can download its own media and store it via Bit torrent? All this in a small, convenient, almost invisible box? A box that doesn't cost you an arm and a leg or require a sophisticated setup?
If you answered yes to all of these, then you need the Patriot Box Office Media Player. The Patriot Box Office Media Player is just about everything you need in a dedicated media player. It can output in full 1080p and supports Dolby® and DTS® surround sound. Your media library can be stored and connected via USB, Ethernet / wireless connection (with optional adapter), or an expandable internal 2.5" SATA hard drive. Video playback supports H.264, ISO, VOB, DivX, xVid, MKV, MOV, MPEG and much more. This is an all-in-one solution to bring your media library to your living room.
