Neuros Link video streamer
Neuros Technology has announced the Neuros Link, a new media extender meant to push video to TVs. Whereas most extenders are used to stream media from a local PC, the emphasis of the Link is on streaming web video from sources such as CBS and Hulu; content is delivered through the free Neuros.TV online service. This enables users to skip the normal transcoding process associated with hardware like the SlingCatcher and Xbox 360.

Neuros ships OSD 2 HD box
Neuros Technology has recently began shipping its second open set-top box, this time with HD video capability, called Open Source Device 2.0 (OSD 2.0). The hardware uses a small processor module and a TI DaVinci 6446 chipset, along with 256MB of RAM and 256MB of NAND flash memory on the board. It was made available more than six months ago to developers who were offered a bounty for writing software for the OSD 2.0. The key to this customization is the Linux stacks used to run the set-up.
