Overview
Hauppauge's MediaMVP is a low cost thin-client device which bridges the home PC with home TV and A/V equipment, via

tal audio (MP3 music), digital video (MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 videos), digital pictures (JPEG and GIF digital pictures) and other
multimedia content in the form of IP packet streams and renders the content onto video and audio equipment such as TV
sets, TV monitors or plasma monitors, and home theater A/V systems.
