Trekstor MovieStation Stores HD Movies: inferior to Ziova CS-505

Owning a HDTV is great and I do love my Panasonic 42inch High Definition TV, but anyone with this set up will also want a descent storage system for storing all them HD movies and TV Shows.

The TrekStor MovieStation is a hard drive with media player hardware which allows you to plug it into your home computer and fill it up with as much media as you can fit onto the 250GB or 500GB hard drive, then just hook it up to your TV and watch.

The formats it handles is XviD, DivX5, DivX3, VOB, IFO, DVD, KVCD, MPEG-2 SVCD and MPEG-1 VCD. The TrekStor MovieStation can upscale your video to 1080i, but what I cannot believe they did not add was an HDMI output seeing as this is one of the best quality connections.

Although I think the TrekStor MovieStation looks really good it features do not follow its looks as you got to go back and forth between TV and PC to get the content, as its not networkable…which is a BIG problem.

This is why I mention in the title inferior to Ziova CS-505, as the Ziova lets you stream your video content over your network and it also does all what the better looking TrekStor MovieStation does.
I guess it comes down to looks or features.
