Fluendo releases Moovida 2.1.0: Better Multimedia Management and Improved User Experience

Tue 12 Apr 2011
In its constant effort to evolve and offer an encompassing user experience, Fluendo has added new features to Moovida that provide users with an easier way to administer and enjoy their digital media.

San Francisco, USA – April 12, 2011. Fluendo releases Moovida 2.1.0 adding new features that improve multimedia management and user experience.

Fluendo keeps improving Moovida’s performance and adding new features that make their application unique to rise to the challenge of increasingly demanding consumers. Surrounded by thousands of multimedia solutions, users today have many different options to pick out from: media players, media centers, on-demand media streaming services, among others. In this context, having that extra ingredient that sets a product apart is mandatory to succeed in the digital media world.

“Moovida is constantly evolving to offer both, real control over the media files stored on the users’ devices and an outstanding user experience that will allow them to enjoy multimedia like no other media center before”, said Emmanuel Marquez, CEO of Fluendo, when asked about Moovida 2.1.0’s new features. “By adding new capabilities and improving Moovida’s performance, we aim at providing users with an application that transcends the simple playback and administration of media files and allows digital media to grasp the limelight in the TV room”, he concluded.

With Moovida 2.1.0, Fluendo has incorporated some exceptional features, such as the MoovidaViewer, designed to launch any media associated to Moovida in record time: less than 3 seconds. Additionally, this new release includes a weather application that automatically adapts to the users’ location forecast and current time of day, providing information that transcends the simple media player and becomes one of the most important comforts found in modern houses.

Another new feature offered by Moovida is the possibility of watching movie trailers from both interfaces, Core and Immersed. From the Core interface, it is now possible to leverage the graphic horsepower with its support for DirectX Video Acceleration System allowing to decode full HD movies. This feature will be particularly appreciated by consumers that use Moovida on portable devices, where this feature will help save battery life. Also important in this release is the possibility of loading external subtitles (.srt files, for instance) through a simple file selection dialog accessible from the menu.

Moovida’s Immersed interface offers a new dashboard that allows creating playlists to group movies by genre, director, year, or any other filter. Immersed includes 3 different backgrounds to choose from, making this application highly customizable. Additionally, Immersed gives users the possibility of running a live search by typing a movie name and browsing their media library with a keyboard.

Hi,

I'm using Elisa since two months now on Vista, and it works very well. the interface is smooth, very easy to use. The Project is also moving very fast, new features are added every week.

The video playback support is excellent. SD and HD playback are smooth, lot of different codecs are supported like DivX, H264, AAC, MP3 .... Some WMV and WMA video are not working, but after investigation, it's only with DRM files.

In order to have a complete playback support, you need to install two codecs pack. I tried some, and the most complete is Klite.

You can download it here : http://www.free-codecs.com/K_lite_codec_pack_download.htm

To have the DVD support, see this post : http://forum.videohelp.com/topic355873.html . It's still experimental, but it works quite well.

With this two packs, Elisa has a better multimedia support than windows media center and windows media player:)

Have fun :)

Ease of use 9 of 10 Functionality 8 of 10 Value for money 10 of 10 Overall score 8 of 10


This looks the business. The interface is smooth, polished and easy to use. It will look great on your TV screen or monitor.

It is a pity the functionality simply isn't there yet. Photo playback is fast and smooth (although the thumbnails take a while to generate), however video playback simply does not work. No DVD playback at all (although a module is in the works), and no Xvid or Divx playback, even though all the required codecs are in place and work everywhere else. Some WMV playback works, but who uses WMV as their main format ? Searching through their (meager) forums produced several references to the problem, but no solutions and nothing at all from the development team to indicate recognition.

This has great potential, but is functionally crippled at this point in time. I will certainly be monitoring it's progress and hope the current issues are soon rectified. Until then, however, the final score will have to reflect it's actual performance.

I have tried this with Ubuntu 8.04 and I'm very impressed so far, although I dont think I'm going to replace XP MCE with this just yet.

It recognises just about any audio/video format you can throw at it, and has network connectivity too. If only someone will release a Linux H264 decoder which is as fast as CoreAVC...

The problem is, it has an "unfinished" feel about it, and does crash somethimes, which is understandable I suppose since Elisa is still under heavy development.

A few more versions and maybe we'll see.
