Streaming Media: SysMaster's Tornado M50 Hops On Internet-To-TV Bandwagon

Designed specifically for the IPTV and video-on-demand market, SysMaster's new Tornado M50 set-top box is full of useful features such as H.264 and MPEG-4 compression technology that deliver high-definition video all while cutting down on costly bandwidth usage. SysMaster says the M50 is revolutionary because while drastically cutting down operating expenses for IPTV service providers, subscribers are still guaranteed a high-definition picture and with the case of closed network infrastructures, up to 1080p resolution.

The Tornado M50 can also decode MPEG-2 and WMV files, delivering decoded content from the set-top box to your large, flat screen TV (hopefully) via HDMI or composite cable. End-users, that being you with the TV, can also communicate via email and chat with friends right from the TV screen. Stored media content on your PC can be streamed to your television through the box through your Local Area Network and information such as weather forecasts and even your RSS feeds can all be streamed right to your television.

SysMaster says that the Tornado M50 delivers exceptional sound via the Dolby 5.1 sound standard, meaning up to 6 channels of surround sound for the IPTV content delivered to your home theater.
