MediaMax consists of a Server that stores and delivers DVD and VHS movies, automatically pre-recorded TV shows, home videos, music and photos; and a Set Top Player that provides multiple room, remote controlled access to the homeowners collection of personal media, Web content, email, chat and internet radio. Other models include a DVD videodisc player and an HDTV component video output compatible Gaming PC.

MediaMax automatically records and plays back TV shows plus delivers DVD movies in their original high quality, MPEG2 format, with full 6-channel Dolby surround sound audio.
