On this week's show ask the question: “What Happened to DLNA Technology” We also read your emails and the week's news. Also, say hi to Evelyne, our virtual news reader. News: Plex warns users to update systems immediately after detecting worrying security issue Samsung's $30K Micro RGB TV Is Here Sling TV launches single day, weekend, week-long pass options Apple's new ‘Charismatic' smart home OS is getting set to take on Alexa and Google What Happened to DLNA Technology? DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) technology, once a popular standard for sharing media like photos, videos, and music between devices on a home network, has largely faded from prominence. Here's a concise overview of what happened: Peak Popularity (2000s–Early 2010s): DLNA, introduced in 2003, enabled seamless media streaming between certified devices like TVs, computers, smartphones, and gaming consoles. It was widely adopted by manufacturers (e.g., Sony, Samsung, LG) and supported by software like Windows Media Player. By 2010, millions of devices were DLNA-certified, with a focus on interoperability and ease of use. Decline in Relevance: Rise of Proprietary Ecosystems: By the mid-2010s, companies like Apple (AirPlay), Google (Chromecast), and Amazon (Fire devices) pushed proprietary streaming protocols that integrated tightly with their ecosystems, offering smoother user experiences and cloud-based features DLNA lacked. Complexity and Inconsistency: DLNA's interoperability was hampered by inconsistent implementation across devices. Some devices supported only specific file formats or had clunky interfaces, frustrating users. Shift to Cloud and Apps: The rise of streaming services like Netflix, Spotify, and YouTube shifted media consumption to app-based, cloud-driven platforms. DLNA's focus on local network sharing became less relevant as users prioritized internet-based content. Emerging Standards: Technologies like Miracast, Wi-Fi Direct, and Bluetooth offered simpler or more versatile alternatives for device-to-device connectivity, further eroding DLNA's niche. DLNA's End (2017): The DLNA organization officially dissolved in 2017, ending certification and development. While some devices and software (e.g., Plex, VLC) still support DLNA for backward compatibility, it's no longer a focal point for manufacturers or consumers. Current Status: DLNA remains functional on older devices, but it's largely been supplanted by modern protocols and platforms. For example, smart TVs now rely on app ecosystems or protocols like Google Cast. Some enthusiasts still use DLNA for local media servers, but it's a niche use case. From our archives (June 2012) What's missing? So if you've tried any of the DLNA servers out there, you've probably seen how bare they are. With so many consumer electronics devices supporting DLNA playback, it seems a really good DLNA server would sell like hotcakes. Here's what we think the perfect DLNA server would do. Support Transcoding. Some DLNA Servers support transcoding, but not all of them. Transcoding allows the server to change the format of the video your watching or song you're listening to to something that the player can actually play back. Otherwise you'll get a bunch of failures trying to play back stuff like DivX and Xvid. Support Cover Art. Most DLNA servers will just grab a video frame out of a movie file and display it as a thumbnail. Why not replace that with the actual cover of the movie? They're easy to find online. It might take a little more setup up front to get all the covers downloaded and in the right place, but it would be worth it. Categorize videos. A few of the servers support a limited amount of categorization for video files, but what you'd really like to do is tag a movie with a genre, a year, rating, actors, director, producer, etc. and use any of those pieces of information to find the right movie. Built-in DVD backup. Consumers want a way to backup their movies. DVDs don't last forever. Allow a user to create a backup copy of their DVD on a hard drive. Of course they'll also be able to watch it from any network connected DLNA player, but that's just a slight benefit of the nifty backup feature. Of course, if you could then provide the built-in... Connection to IMDB. Allow users to automatically populate cover art and meta data info by selecting the correct movie from an online database like IMDB. This would greatly simplify the chore of adding movies to a video library. While this tends to be a one-time event (once per movie at least), it can be painful and tends to wear on you after a while. Support online sources. Right now PlayOn is the only server we've found that supports online video sources. It, however, doesn't support local sources. It looks like that functionality will be coming soon, but the two ideas need to merge for a really great product.
What is DIVX?? It's a super convenient way to rent movies without rentals or late fees. Simply go to Circuit City, buy a DIVX disc and DIVX DVD player, connect the player to your phone line, call to activate the disc for 48hrs, call back if you want to watch it again for a fee, call back a third time if you want to purchase your movie for an additional fee, or just go all the way back to Circuit City to recycle the disc.

As AI continues to advance and integrate into our daily lives, can it truly be designed to align with our deepest human values and moral principles? If so, how can we ensure that AI not only understands but also respects and promotes our ethical frameworks, without compromising our privacy or hindering our personal growth and autonomy? John Vervaeke, Christopher Mastropietro, and Jordan Hall embark on a nuanced exploration of the intricate relationship between AI and human flourishing. They explore the concept of "intimate AI," a personalized guardian that attunes to individual biometrics and psychometrics, offering a protective and challenging presence. The discussion underscores the critical importance of privacy, the perils of idolatry, and the urgent need for a new philosophical framework that addresses the meaning crisis. Jordan Hall is a technology entrepreneur with several years of experience building disruptive companies. He is interested in philosophy, artificial intelligence, and complex systems and has a background in law. Hall has worked for several technology companies and was the founder and CEO of DivX. He is currently involved in various think tanks and institutes and is focused on upgrading humanity's capacity for thought and action. Christopher Mastropietro is a philosophical writer who is fascinated by dialogue, symbols, and the concept of self. He actively contributes to the Vervaeke Foundation.

That's the stepping through of the win-lose into the win-win." - Jordan Hall [01:20:00] Chapters 00:03:00 - Christian Virtues and the Imaginal: A Journey into Spiritual Depth 00:20:00 - The Power of Transformative Dialogue: Unity and Deepening Faith 00:28:00 - Bridging Divides: The Quest for Global Unity and Transcendent Communication 00:52:00 - Faith's Duality: Wholesomeness Versus Completeness 01:05:00 - Encountering Sacredness: Reflections on Faith and Community 01:24:20 - Upcoming Dialogue: Non-Rivalrous Christianity, Religio, and the Fellowship of the Spirit

If you ever downloaded online videos since the year 2000, this man is who you should thank! This week I'm speaking with technologist and philosopher Jordan Hall (formerly Jordan Greenhall). Jordan was a founder of numerous early-internet companies including video codec company DivX. However, I got to know him through his contributions to a community known as “Game B”, which seeks to understand how human civilization can transform itself into a more sustainable, anti-rivalrous, win-win dynamic. Today's conversation is a philosophical and technical dive into the anthropological drivers of competition, complexity, centra and decentralization, and the role of AI in shaping a more Game B future. JORDAN'S BIOGRAPHY: Jordan is now in his seventeenth year of building disruptive technology companies. First as an early employee crafting strategy and product for MP3.com, then at InterVU (acquired by Akamai) and then finally in 2000 launching and leading the online digital video revolution as founder and CEO of DivX. After somewhat successfully navigating two financial crises and an IPO (and going down in flames at Stage6), he left the helm at DivX to return his attention to the big picture. He tried his hand at capitalism – combining Angel investment at the sharp edge of the Schumpeter wave — with participation in a number of think tanks and institutes; most notably, the Aspen Institute and the Santa Fe Institute where he served on the Board of Trustees for five sweet years. This exposure led him to the conclusion that humanity is in the midst of a world historical transition which will likely kill all of us (see Mad Max) but just might end in a truly amazing future (see Star Trek). Getting there is going to require many things of us – most notably a significant upgrade of our individual and collective capacity for thought and action.

Een groep van vijf Nederlandse investeerders koopt een belang in LioniX. Het Enschedese fotonicabedrijf werd in 2018 nog verkocht aan een Koreaans concern. Sandra Olsthoorn volgt de chipsector legt uit dat er vanuit Den Haag veel ambitie is om de fotonische industrie hier te laten groeien. Lees: Fotonicabelofte LioniX weer deels in Nederlandse handen Netflix heeft een belangrijke overwinning geboekt bij de Nederlandse rechter. De eis tot handhaving van een Duits octrooi is afgewezen. Techredacteur Stijn van Gils vertelt dat de juridische strijd zowel Netflix als tegenpartij DivX veel geld kost. Lees: Netflix hoeft van Nederlandse rechter niet op zwart in Duitsland Voormalig premier Andrej Babis was lang verdachte in een fraudezaak in Tsjechië.

Pensioenfonds ABP kocht in de eerste helft van dit jaar aandelen in minstens tien olieconcerns, terwijl het vorig jaar nog aankondigde om helemaal te stoppen met investeringen in fossiele brandstoffen. Dat heeft volgens pensioenenredacteur Puck Sie een technische reden: het fonds voor ambtenaren, leraren en politieagenten koopt aandelen in zogenoemde beleggingspools. Lees: ABP belooft fossielvrij te worden, maar koopt olieaandelen bij Netflix gebruikt een technologie voor zijn video's waar softwarebedrijf DivX een octrooi op zou hebben, maar de streamingsdienst betaalt daar niet de licentie voor. DivX is daarom naar de Duitse rechter gestapt en heeft daar al gelijk gekregen. Techredacteur Stijn van Gils legt uit waarom de zaak nu ook voor de Nederlandse rechter komt. Lees: Duitse octrooistrijd brengt Netflix voor Amsterdamse rechter Na ING en ABN Amro is nu ook de Rabobank onderwerp van een strafrechtelijk onderzoek. Dat het Openbaar Ministerie daar pas nu aanklopt, wekt verbazing in de financiële sector. Bankenredacteur Rutger Betlem vertelt dat door het onderzoek ook oud-bestuurders van de bank strafrechtelijk vervolgd kunnen worden.

O programa de hoje é sobre acesso à internet. Uma nova pesquisa do Comitê Gestor da Internet no Brasil revela um movimento curioso. O número de pessoas usando internet pela TV é maior que pelo computador. São vários fatores que ajudam a explicar isso. No segundo bloco, vamos falar de um embate da Netflix aqui no Brasil. A Justiça brasileira determinou que a Netflix pare de usar um codec de compressão de vídeo por aqui. O motivo é que a empresa criadora da tecnologia, a DivX, disse que a Netflix não tem permissão para usar a tecnologia por aqui. No último bloco, vamos falar de ruído marrom. Você, provavelmente, já ouviu falar em ruído branco, aquele barulhinho de chuva ou da TV sem sinal que muita gente usa para dormir e relaxar. Agora, uma nova trend no TikTok está falando sobre o ruído marrom, que pode ser até mais relaxante. Este é o Podcast Canaltech, publicado de terça a sábado, às 7h da manhã no nosso site e nos agregadores de podcast.

Folge 94 kommt mit einer erstaunlich kurzen Laufzeit daher. Der Grund ist simpel: Andi ist krank und gehört eigentlich ins Bett. Deswegen schonen wir ihn mit einer kurzen Folge. Das hindert uns aber nicht daran, alles Wesentliche der letzten Woche aufzuarbeiten: Sei es der Tod von "Ghostbusters"-Regisseur Ivan Reitman oder die Trailer zur "Herr der Ringe"-Serie und dem "Chip & Chap"-Film. Wir quatschen außerdem darüber, warum Andi Cannabis zu sich genommen hat, warum DivX in den 2000ern der geile Scheiß war und welches Spiel man sich holen sollte, um sich wie ein echter Detektiv zu fühlen. Im Filmbingo feiert Andi den Mel Brooks-Streifen "Robin Hood - Helden in Strumpfhosen" und Tobi erzählt uns, wie opulent und großartig die Serie "Vikings" ist - und warum er sie trotzdem nicht weiterschauen wird. Das alles erwartet euch in kompakten 62 Minuten, ehe wir Andi zurück ins Bett schicken.
This week the gang talks to Andrew "Goat Dick" German about the ways we've listened to music, past and present From wax cylinders to usb thumb drives, and TikTok. DIVX is probably the stupidest. Enjoy!
Note: the initial upload cut off the last 20 minutes, this version should be correct. Bill Hunt is on to discuss his site The Digital Bits, how he got started and where he sees the industry going: How did you get started doing the site? How has it changed over the years? DVD or DIVX? Bluray or HDDVD? How do you add reviewers? Where do you stand on streaming? Are you 100% discs only still or do you dabble with streams? Are you subbing to any services like HBO Max or Disney Plus? What's your own theater like? Are you a movie goer when there isn't an ongoing pandemic or do you strictly stick to home viewing? (Sam's back to A-List with Nobody and Raya and the Last Dragon, plus Mortal Kombat tomorrow!) What films that haven't made their way to disk yet do you most want to see? What do you think is the next step for home theater, what would you like to see? Do you think consumers have a strong enough voice in the hobby? Do sites like yours help give that voice a megaphone at all? What do you wish your readers understood about your job better? When are we going to do another hollywood or vegas meet up =) Missed connections: The Birthday Bash with incognito celebs! State of the cinema and home theater post pandemic Plus Good Bad and Ugly (jaja!)

Today we are in conversation with Jordan Hall. Jordan lays bare the multiplicity of issues that emerge from relying on complicated systems to manage complex situations. The conversation elucidates the fatal flaws with the complicated systems currently in place and touches on what solutions could look like, whilst contending with the difficulty in achieving these. Jordan is the executive chair and co-founder of Neurohacker Collective, a company that makes ground-breaking products for health and well-being through complex systems science. He is in his seventeenth year building disruptive technologies. His previous positions include crafting strategy and product for MP3.com, then at InterVU (acquired by Akamai) and then finally in2000 launching and leading the online digital video revolution as founder and CEO of DivX.
The world seems just a bit crazier every single day right now. Luckily on this week’s show we have the guiding light of a brilliant thinker I’ve admired for years, Jordan Hall (formerly Jordan Greenhall). I first discovered Jordan after reading his Situational Assessment in 2017 and his essay On Sovereignty which was pivotal in my the maturation of my worldview. On the show we begin with my own challenge in transcending myopic preoccupation with personal growth for its own sake and how trying to live an epic story can interfere with our personal sovereignty. The interview is then interrupted and we are able to explore regaining our sovereignty in real time. We talk about epistemological humility as a way of navigating sense-making amidst strange phenomena like QAnan. We touch on Jordan’s ideas of the Blue Church and the Red Religion. Finally we look at the upcoming US election and how we might marshal and deploy our resources in an increasingly mad world. Jordan has been involved in many esteemed organizations including Harvard Law School, the Aspen Institute, and the Santa Fe Institute where he served on the Board of Trustees for five years. He co-founded DivX, Game B, and Neurohacker Collective with Daniel Schmachtenberger. I would highly recommend his essays on medium and his public talks. This is a heady conversation and so to better locate you my dear listeners, I begin by reading a section of his essay on Sovereignty that impacted me so much.

Bref viendez écouter notre avis sur le sujet et débattre avec nous ;)
Venture capitalist Jana Messerschmidt, talks with Recode's Kara Swisher about how she became a partner at Lightspeed and the co-founder of an all-female group of angel investors called #ANGELS. Messerschmidt previously worked at DivX, Netflix, and Twitter, and also discusses the early days of video streaming online and how Netflix timed the market perfectly. Plus: Why #ANGELS doesn't invest only in women, what made that collective different from traditional venture capital, and the urgent need to ensure that women have their fair share of equity in tech startups.

Do you remember DIVX? It was a rental format variation on the DVD player in which a customer would buy a DIVX disc (similar to a DVD) for approximately US$4.50, which was watchable for up to 48 hours from its initial viewing.
On todays episode John talks about Digital Video Express, better known as DIVX. It was the predecessor to Flexplay, and it's just as bad. IMPORTANT: We are moving to a new podcast hosting service. If you are subscribed on iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Spotify or something similar you shouldn't have to do anything. We are hoping the transition goes smoothly.
