CHAMPAIGN, IL - September 1, 2006 - CodexNovus, the leader in stand-alone and networked media server products, is proud to introduce the HDcodex DML-1600 standalone digital media player. Featuring 1.6 terabytes of memory, the DML-1600 will allow the media lover to access his or her entire collection of movies, music, and other media at the touch of a button. The new server will support all commonly used digital media formats, in SD and HD formats at resolutions up to 1920 x 1080p. High-resolution audio is delivered in multi-channel 5.1, and 7.1 formats – all in a self-contained platform designed for unparalleled ease of use.

“Our goal is to take the best digital playback technology on the market – and make it invisible,” said CodexNovus’ president Hugo Feugen. “We’re allowing the movie and music lover to forget about the equipment and put his or her focus where it belongs – on the media experience itself.”
