Sense 6 update for HTC One (M7) and One Max variants reach 'certification' status on HTC website

In the name of transparency, HTC has just updated its software update support page to indicate that several variants of the HTC One (M7) and One Max are one step closer to a Sense 6 software update. Coming up just a week after HTC let everyone know that the Sense 6 update was on its way and in "integration" (that's step 2 of 4), the page has been updated to reflect that nearly every version is now up to the next step, "certification." 


Across the U.S. and Canada, every version of the HTC One (M7) is bumped up to certification aside from the T-Mobile version, which is still in "development" (step 1). The One Max from both Sprint and Verizon is in certification, but the One Mini on both Rogers and AT&T is still stuck on integration. 

The next step, if you look at HTC's handy chart, will be "push to customer," although that doesn't mean that the updates are necessarily going to hit another week from now. HTC has previously claimed that all One (M7) variants will get the update by the end of May, and it looks like they will hit that goal at this rate.

How to convert Blu-ray/DVD for playback on the Roku 3 through USB stick

According February 8 Sohu digital news, if you plan to buy a streaming media player, then you can choose any one of the three products in the following: Chromecast, Roku and Apple TV. They are not the only commercially available streaming media players, but it is the most popular - mainly because of the price that several devices are under $ 100 , along with a very high value for money . 

If I can only recommend a streaming media box, then I would choose Roku 3. For the following reasons: 



The Good

The Roku 3's excellent interface and speedy processor makes it feel quicker and more responsive than any other streaming box. More than 1,000 channels are supported, including Netflix, Amazon Instant, HBO Go, Hulu Plus, Pandora, MLB.TV, Amazon Cloud Player, Vudu and (finally) Youtube. It also has cross-platform search that scours several major TV and movie services to find content. And Roku's nifty remote has a built-in headphone jack that lets you listen without disturbing others. 

The Bad

The Apple TV still works better within the Apple ecosystem. And the Roku 3 isn't the best option if you're mostly looking to stream your personal digital media collection. 

The Bottom Line

The Roku 3 is the best streaming-video box yet, with tons of content sources, lightning-fast performance, and an innovative remote with built-in headphone jack. 

Tips: If you want to know more about streaming media player like Chromecast, Roku and Apple TV, click here.

As a mighty streaming video machine, you don't have to rely on the Internet to play videos on your Roku 3 —you can do it from a USB drive. The Roku 3's USB port opens up the option of playing video files from any USB drive, whether that's a USB stick or a full portable hard drive. 

Before we know about how to play a video on your Roku 3 from a USB drive, let us use the converter to rip the Blu-ray/DVD to enrich our USB stick. 

USB stick as a storage container, small and convenient, is our preferred mobile storage devices. But when we want to play our Blu-ray/DVD collection, the device showed significant deficiencies. Mainly because we have no way to backup Blu-ray/DVD information to the USB stick. To solve this problem, we need a powerful software, which must be able to backup and convert Blu-ray/DVD discs on our computers, then we can copy the video files to our USB stick, with the help of roku 3, and enjoy our favorite Blu-ray/DVD movies anytime, anywhere. 

Here recommend the Pavtube BDMagic, which is one of the best BD/DVD disc handling tools on the market. It not only can convert 3D Blu-ray discs, 2D Blu-ray discs, and standard DVDs to your computer with desired HD and SD media formats including MPEG-4/H.264 MP4, MPEG, RM, QuickTime MOV, MPG, Xvid, Divx, 3GP, FLV, VOB, ASF, SWF, DV, MP3, AAC, OGG, FLAC, etc, but also can is capable of 1:1 copying BD/DVD Disc content to local computer or external hard drive in original file structure with all subtitle tracks and audio streams preserved. 

Simple operation available to everyone 

Note: If you convert Blu-ray to your computer, you must put Blu-ray onto Blu-ray drive before ripping Blu-rays. If you are mac user, you can try Pavtube BDMagic for Mac. 

Step 1: Insert your Blu-ray disc into your BD drive, run the Pavtube BDMagic and click "File" icon to load movie from DVD and Blu-ray source(Disc, folder, ISO). 


Step 2: Click the "Format" option, and choose the format. 


Tips: 

1. The Roku 3 can play MKV, MP4 and MOV files. So you can choose HD Video > MKV HD Video(*.mkv) as output format. You can also select H.264 HD Video (*.mp4). 

2. If you like, you can click "Settings" to change the video encoder, resolution, frame rate, etc. as you wish. Keep in mind the file size and video quality is based more on bitrate than resolution which means bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss, and vice versa. 

Step 3: Click the convert button under the preview window, and the BDMagic will start the conversion from Blu-ray DVD movies to MKV on Windows/Mac. 

After conversion, you can stream Blu-ray/DVD movies to your USB stick. And you also can stream Blu-ray/DVD movies through Roku 3 to HDTV or Samsung Galaxy Tab, or other DLNA-compliant devices. 

Now watching blu-ray movies on portable devices becomes easy and you can really lie back, relax and enjoy your favorite blu-ray movies. Now let's learn how to play a video on your Roku 3 from a USB drive. 


  • 1) Install the Roku Media Player channel, either through the Channel Store on your Roku or via Roku's website.
  • 2) Add the video file to your external USB drive from your computer. The Roku 3 can play MKV, MP4 and MOV files.
  • 3) Connect the USB drive to the Roku 3's USB port, located on the right side of the box.
  • 4) Launch the Roku Media Player channel and select Videos.
  • 5) Choose the drive that's attached to the Roku 3.
  • 6) Navigate to the folder that has the video file you want to watch. Click OK to open the folder.

What media file types does the Roku Media Player channel support? 

Roku 3 Streaming Media Player 

International mainstream streaming media player: Roku 3 is the best option appraisal

According February 8 Sohu digital news, if you plan to buy a streaming media player, then you can choose any one of the three products in the following: Chromecast, Roku and Apple TV. They are not the only commercially available streaming media player, but it is the most popular - mainly because of the price that several devices are under $ 100, along with a very high value for money. 



If I can only recommend a streaming media box , then I would choose Roku 3. For the following reasons: 

Roku 3 



Pros: still the best box

  • More than 1000 applications: In terms of content , Roku is the undisputed champion. It covers almost the channel library (USA ) all mainstream video and music services, including Netflix, Amazon Instant, HBO Go, Hulu Plus, Pandora, Spotify, Rdio and YouTube, etc. , and is often at the first to join the new channel. In addition, Roku upgrades have been highly praised .
  • Remote control with headphone jack: plug in the headphones Roku 3 remote control, speakers on TV will automatically mute , and you can watch broadcast content without disturbing others. This turns out to be a killer feature, especially for those who like to watch TV late at night users.
  • Super-fast: Roku 3 has the fastest chip of the series, which is also revealed to be exhaustive in daily, it is also more sensitive than any one of streaming media box I used.
  • Cross-platform search: Roku also has a cross-platform search features, you can use it at the same time to search among multiple video services to view the content they need. When you find movies you rented, which can be watching on Netflix, you would certainly feel frustrated, and Roku's search function can avoid it.

Shortcoming

  • Relatively expensive: Although $100 is not a lot, but you can buy almost three Chromecast. If you do not need all the features provided by Roku 3, it may not be worth paying this extra price.
  • No real AirPlay / Google Cast alternative functions: Apple TV and Chromecast allow users to use the phone or tablet on the native application to transfer content to box. In this application, the smartphone's interface will obviously bring more easily manipulated. As for the Apple TV , AirPlay allows you to use those services which are not specifically to the application , such as Spotify. Roku is beginning to offer similar functionality - currently supports YouTube and Netflix, and you can push the pictures stored on the phone, music and video - but the extent of adoption of this feature is not so extensive as the other two opponents.
  • Multimedia file playback requires Plex: It has not been the best at playing multimedia files on Roku 3, through the USB interface supported file formats is limited - but it does support the Plex Media Server, which can be intended to make Ruku many flaws. However, you still need a networked PC running above Plex software. So if you want to connect to a file full of U-disk , Roku is not the best choice.

Chromecast 



Pros: cheap, simple, small 

When the advent of last year, the price of only $ 35, Chromecast sparked widespread concern outside world. And after sale services, it supports are further grow and improve . 

  • Price is absolute advantage: price $ 35 is clearly a big advantage for Chromecast. Even if it is used only a few times, you will still feel it is value for money, while Google has also been upgraded to provide the law.
  • Super compact: Roku 3 and Apple TV can be called a compact, but Chromecast has reached another level at small degree. It means the same design U-disk can be completely hidden behind the TV, although it still needs to be connected to the TV's USB port to get power. While it may not seem a perfect travel companion initially , but if you live in travel offers WiFi, then Chromecast can still come in handy.
  • Covers the main applications: If you do not need multi- streaming - Many people are basically only use Netflix and YouTube - so Chromecast can take care of your needs.

Cons: limited applications , no real TV interface 

  • Applications can also choose a little better: Chromecast adds more applications at the laudable efforts, but the vacancies is still very significant, including Amazon Instant, Spotify and Rdio , including many services have not yet added support. Google recently released a SDK Google Cast agreement, so more applications support should be added slowly. But if it want to catch up with Roku, it may have to take some time.
  • No cross-platform search: Google's cross-platform search capabilities did not appear on Chromecast, this is a bit surprising, especially considering the Google TV already provides this functionality (PrimeTime). While some third-party applications have similar features, but the effect is not very good, and the integration of search compared Roku.
  • o screen interface or a standard remote control: Unlike Roku 3 or Apple TV, Chromecast does not have a real TV screen, the screen is only a static state. Everything is done via a smart phone or tablet PC to control, which means that every time you want to pause or rewind, you need to unlock your mobile device to operate. Roku 3 and Apple TV provides applications for mobile devices to achieve the degree of control, but Chromecast has the only way to manipulate . For the living room of this environment, I personally prefer physical keys rather than virtual buttons, but it had to be based on individual preferences.
  • Screen mapping work is not very good: the screen mapping is currently in beta testing interface, which can really see that. Although the label from Chrome features will be mapped to any content on the TV sounds good, but it's not a very good work, especially comparing Apple TV and recent Mac laptops that have similar functionality.

Apple TV 



Pros: excellent companion iOS 

Apple TV is the oldest among the three devices , but you should not reason to ignore it - especially if you've been in the ecosystem in which Apple has invested. 

  • Among the outstanding performance of Apple's ecosystem: If you have entered the Apple ecosystem, the Apple TV lets you get to all of the content on your TV, for example, you buy on the iTunes TV shows, movies or music. If you also use iTunes Match, it can all enjoy music stored in the cloud. Support for iTunes Radio also recently been added, so that you can experience in the living room to free radio.
  • AirPlay is still great: If you already have other iOS devices, then almost any application in which music, pictures and videos pushed to the Apple TV is very simple. This feature also allows you access to a large number of Apple TV, which does not provide native support for applications. For example, Apple TV does not Pandora application, but you can easily be on the phone or tablet Pandora streaming content through Apple TV to play them. If you have recently come out of a Mac, then work should screen mapping function is also very good.
  • Application Support catching up: Apple TV keeps up with the rhythm of the past, which have been less in the application of the above, but the recent performance was much better, such as HBO Go and Watch ESPN and so many high-quality services have been added in the previous year.

Disadvantages: Get the lead out 

  • Less than the number of applications and functions Roku: Roku 3 has a greater number of applications, cross-platform search, and a headphone jack with a remote control. These features are not necessary, but it is very intimate and practical, especially considering the price of the same two devices.
  • Very centered in iTunes: Apple TV seems to be the entire interface, which is designed to push you to the iTunes content among its entire, main screen is occupied by almost iTunes movies, TV shows, and music. If you are heavy users of the Apple ecosystem, which of course is not a problem , but if you prefer to buy them from other online stores and rental content words - such as Amazon or Vudu, these two services do not get on Apple TV support - This is not ideal it.
  • Come the new version: There needs to be considered is that recently rumored Apple's upcoming next-generation Apple TV. Although these rumors have appeared before, but considering the age of this generation Apple TV has not small, even if you do not see the new model year, the issue within six months , but I would be surprised.

Good news: The three boxes are great 

For these "big three" streaming box, the good news is that they mature enough and cheap it. iOS users can get from Chromecast diehard among many features, you can enjoy a meal while Android Apple TV nicely. 

For now, Roku 3 is still the best choice for most buyers, but the pace of development in this area soon, Chromecast will continue to add more applications support, and rumors about the new Apple TV is also emerging.

Share: How to Install Windows 7 Without the Disc

1a) Here is very useful article from PCWorld.com. The article is entitled "How to Install Windows 7 Without the Disc" and means just what it says. The article also has links to Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder and legitimate Windows 7 ISOs from Digital River, a licensed distributor of Microsoft software. The article lists "Step 1" as; 

"Find your Windows 7 product key: Typically this 25-character alphanumeric string is printed on a sticker affixed to your PC or on documentation included with your PC. Alternatively, you can use a keyfinder program such as Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder to pull your product key from the Registry. You need your product key to reinstall Windows." 

1b) Using a key finder, however, is only useful if the Windows 7 product key was printed on a sticker (Microsoft Certificate of Authenticity) affixed to your PC, on documentation included with your PC, or sent via email by Microsoft. Assuming your computer came from one of the big brand computer manufacturers... HP, Sony, Dell, Gateway, etc... as most do, it uses a generic "mass activation" OEM SLP key. Trying to use this key by itself isn't going to work. This OEM SLP key needs to be mated with an OEM SLP certificate and an appropriate OEM BIOS with a proper SLIC table. 

1c) Here is where ABR Beta With Windows 7 Support comes to the rescue. Follow the "How to use it" section of ABR for Windows Vista for information and instructions on how to use ABR. The steps listed for Vista apply to Windows 7 as well. Perform the "activation backup" to "backup" and save the OEM SLP key and OEM SLP certificate. Save the entire ABR folder to an external location for later use. This will allow you to pre-activate your "clean" Windows 7 install on the computer you pulled the key and certificate from. 

1d) Now install Windows 7 from your new "Windows 7" disc or USB stick, following all prompts as needed. Don't enter a Windows 7 product key if request. Also, don't allow Windows to try to auto-activate. Once Windows is fully installed, run ABR "activation restore" to "restore" the previously backed up product key and certificate to the new Windows 7 install. Verify that Windows is activated, repeat "activation restore" if needed. 

2) Here is another useful article, this time from SevenForums.com. This arcticle is entitled "Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7" and provides detailed steps required to backup your computer, audit current hardware and software, locate software and drivers, install and activate Windows 7, and create a Windows 7 Backup Image of your fresh install.

Links to additional Windows 7 SP1 "Editions" and "Languages" can be found HERE and HERE. 

Link to "ei.cfg Removal Utility". The "ei.cfg Removal Utility" is a simple tool that will remove the ei.cfg from any Windows ISO disc image, thereby converting the image into a "universal disc" that will prompt the user to select an edition during setup instead of being forced to use different discs for different versions of Windows 7.
