Esquire leads the way with the Playon! DVR media player


Johannesburg, 02 Sep 2010

Esquire Technologies, leading distributor of IT and digital lifestyle products, launches the new AC Ryan Playon! series, the first digital video recorder (DVR) and full high definition (HD) media player, that allows users to record their favourite programme, as well as stream music, movies and photos.

Users can enjoy their media collection anywhere in the world and will never miss their favourite programme again, as they can access the Playon! DVR remotely via the Web to set their recording schedule or view their library.

Designed to complement any home set-up, the Playon! DVR has dual digital TV tuners that permit users to watch and record different channels at the same time. It also allows for real-time and scheduled time recording, and features an electronic programme guide (EPG) so users can select what shows to record. The built-in BitTorrent downloads files directly to the internal hard drive.

The Playon! DVR has ample storage space that is supported by an internal hard disk, memory card, eSATA drives and network drives and allows for both wired and wireless connections.

Esquire's Managing Director, Asgar Mahomed, said: “With the arrival of the new AC Ryan Playon! DVR media players, customers will never have a reason to miss their favourite TV shows or sporting events again."

Other features include:

* Regular firmware updates
* Front panel displays
* Movie Jukebox
* Internet feeds
* Built in FTP server and HTTP server
