I see that DLINK has officially announced the DSM-750 --- Yay!! However, I notice that it is devoid of the H.264 AVC support that was originally rumored to be included. If this support is not included, then why on Earth would anyone buy it????? The DSM-520, DSM-510, and DSM-320 do everything it does, excluding the WiFi draft N support --- which, by the way, doesn't work worth a flip for transferring HD video through walls in a 2 story house!!! Yes, I am upset with the announcement, even more that I have a DSM-520 which does not support H.264 AVC. Make me and several thousand other customers happy by including H.264 support. We have all converted our libraries into H.264 format via either Quicktime or Nero Digital and would like to be able to use them. Please don't continue to let Microsoft limit your capabilities in this area. DLINK could be the premier vendor for video streaming if you would just look beyond M$. You know, pretty soon, DirecTV will add MPEG4 H.264 streaming support to the HD-DVR and no one who has one will need the DSM's. Don't miss your window of opportunity!!!!!
Thanks!
I'm using Nero Mediahome to stream H.264 videos converted on the fly into MPEG-2 so that the DSM-520 can display them on my Sony KDS60-A2000 television. It works, but I lose the 5.1 surround sound during the conversion.
