Audio is the same again dependent of the quality you download/prefer it will either sound great at its highest or soft and somewhat muted at the lowest. Plus you can stop at any point, especially when you're playing with the options and the film will restart right where you left off. Since mine are HD quality, they look fantastic! Though not as sharp as I'd like it to be, at the highest settings, video looks amazing in glorious HD, which you can go as high as 1080p. Video Quality is dependent on the size and quality of vid you have. It's really that easy! The menu system plus remote are all very intuitive.

Once you load your drive full of movies, photos and music, all you need do is plug in the drive to the Theater+, sit back, relax and enjoy no instructions needed. The Theater+ ate everything I fed to it and spat out some quality HD audio and video.

The Theater+ HD is just what the doctor ordered! Now I can watch all my digital films direct from the Go drive without having to wait, burning em on DVD or worrying if my PS3 will can handle the format (which is still quite limited). But even if I didn't have that, I do have digital films thanks to Warner Home and their BD vids, which include digital vids.

Oh and kudos to Seagate for tossing in the FreeAgent Go PC 500GB with included Star Trek film 2009 film. Finally for photos you have JPEG, BMP, TIFF, GIF, and PNG.įinally Theater+ can be hooked to the internet either direct through a LAN (Ethernet) port or Wi-Fi (using a USB WI-FI adapter).

For Audio you have – MP3, AAC, ASF, FLAC, WAV, WMA, OGG and you can even load your playlist using the M3U or PLS formats. After that you have for video - MPEG-1, 2, Divx/Xvid (including HD), AVI, MOV, MKV, RMVB, WMV9, AVC HD, H.264, and M-PEG 4. So the big question is – what formats does the Theater+ chew up and spit back at ya? On the offset you have Divx, which would have been an automatic FAIL had it not had that format. Maneuvering through the menus was actually smooth, with no loading or stalls. From there you can access any of three – even from within folders. You have to select devices first and then select FreeAgent Go as your selected device. When I clicked on any of the first three options there was nothing inside. Once plugged in Theater+ takes you to a very simple menu screen, which gives you the options of Movie, Pictures, Music, Internet, and Devices. Finally the Theater+ comes with a remote control, which is your only link to access the device's innards. Thankfully I have an HDMI for my Playstation 3, which works works perfectly. The Theater+ comes with all everything you need to get started right out the box, minus an HDMI plug.

It's lightweight, has a nice glossy coating, and slim enough to fit inside any carryon for on the go movie watching – if the set you're gonna plug it into has all the right ports. The front of the device has a USB port, and at the rear has an additional USB port as well as all the media connections you'll need (Composite, Component, HDMI, Optical). The FreeAgent Theater+, on the outset, looks like a very miniature Playstation 3, especially when you insert a silver FreeAgent Go drive.

Take one FreeAgent Go HDD (Hard Drive) and incorporate it into one device that will make it capable of playing back your music, movies, and photos with the ease of use that Seagate is proud of and what do you get? You get the FreeAgent Theater+. And what they have up their sleeves will change the way you watch your digital films. But Seagate says there not done with Val… yet. FreeAgent Go, FreeAgent Dock, FreeAgent Dockstar – three products, one company, all passed Val-Cave testing.
