Hauppauge has this week released a new update for its Digital Broadway digital streaming media box, which allows you to now record TV programmes and films and watch them at a later date in a similar way to a traditional digital video recorder.
Previously the Hauppauge Digital Broadway Box would only allow you to watch live TV. The Broadway media box has a built-in over the air digital TV tuner (ATSC), together with support for clear QAM digital cable TV and connections to cable or satellite set top boxes.
Enhanced Functionality with Recording Features
The new recording features are being provided to existing Hauppauge Digital Broadway Box users as a free software upgrade. This means that users can now enjoy the flexibility of recording their favorite TV shows and movies to watch at their convenience. This feature is particularly useful for those who have busy schedules and cannot always watch live TV. The ability to record and playback content transforms the Broadway Box from a simple streaming device into a more versatile home entertainment system.
“Broadway can be used in the home, for example, to stream a football game or a news program over the home Wi-Fi network to an iPad. The iPad will display a list of Broadway’s TV channels, and with two taps of a finger on the iPad, live TV will be displayed on the iPad screen.”
Compatibility and User Experience
The Broadway Box is designed to be user-friendly and compatible with a variety of devices. It supports streaming to iPads, iPhones, Android devices, and even PCs and Macs. This wide range of compatibility ensures that users can enjoy their recorded content on virtually any device they own. The interface is intuitive, making it easy for users to navigate through channels and recorded content.
Moreover, the Broadway Box supports high-definition streaming, ensuring that the quality of the recorded content is top-notch. This is particularly important for sports enthusiasts and movie buffs who want to enjoy their content in the best possible quality.
The new recording feature is also a boon for families. Different family members can record their favorite shows and watch them at their convenience, eliminating conflicts over what to watch. This makes the Broadway Box a valuable addition to any household.
The Broadway Box is also equipped with parental controls, allowing parents to monitor and restrict the content their children can access. This feature adds an extra layer of security and peace of mind for families with young children.
The new recording features are being provided to existing Hauppauge Digital Broadway Box users as a free software upgrade. But will also be available to new users who purchase a Hauppauge Broadway Box for $200.
