Mvix has announced the worldwide launch of the Mvix Ultio, a hard-disk based media centre capable of HD digital media playback with video output as high as 1080p. Ultio’s high-end video processing not only plays Blu-Ray quality video, it allows to store entire Hi-Definition media on its internal hard drive, plug it into a TV via HDMI and enjoy movies, digital music and family photos on large LCD or Plasma. It is also capable of playing AVCHD format (normally used in camcorder footage but also offered by new digital cameras such as the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1). Other supported codecs and formats include, but are not limited to, H.264, MKV, Dixv HD, MOV, VC-1 and FLV. Mvix Ultio is being launched in 2 flavours: the regular version (without a HDD) is priced at $169, whereas the premium version (bundled with a 1TB hard drive) will be available at $259.
