NessMediaCenter user reviews, comments and rating. Darwine for mac os x. Rate the software now! But nessMediaCenter has some disadvantages too: its GUI is old fashion (with a high contrast) and metadata is only available for DVDs (it is its philosophy to keep movie titles private). But you can edit / save metadata for (EyeTV) movies and DVDs by using 'Movie Info'.

nessMediaCenter enables you to use your Mac as your primary media center. It is the suitable replacement for Apple's Front Row with latest Mac technology:

• Easy to use with a clean look and feel
• Direct access to movie / picture folder and volumes
• Support of Aperture, iPhoto, iTunes and Photos App media including DRM (AppStore movies and TV shows)
• Access to DLNA / UPnP media server and its media (pictures and videos)
• Comfortable selection of DVDs, EyeTV movies, PDF documents, pictures and videos in all common formats
• Controllable by Apple remote control, 'NV Remote II' app on iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, trackpad, magic mouse or keyboard

Chess for mac os. The media center offers the following functionality: Cd label for mac.

• Choice of background color, selection color and font color / size
• Activation / deactivation of content
• Ad hoc construction of playlists with pictures, movies, media shows, PDF documents
• Presentation of this playlist or single media
• iTunes control to switch playlists / tracks or start / stop playback (including informations of the current track)
• Mark of unplayed movies which are stored in iTunes (if iTunes is started).
• Automatic dimming of the screen after five minutes
• Optional automatic display of the media center at application start
• Optional EyeTV activation or computer shutdown by selection of exit

During a presentation several functions are available:

• Increase of playback speed (up to 64x)
• Endless playback
• Sorting by name, path or random
• Fullscreen switch (e.g. for different presentations on 2 displays)
• Aspect ratio (4:3; 16:9; 21:9)
• Zooming
• Language selection (track activation; if available)
• DVD: selection of the default language (including automatic selection of audio passthrough if available)

Access to media of the new 'Photos App' by the media center is the most important innovation in these versions. In the preferences can be specified which data is made available (albums, moments, collections, media types), which possibly reduces loading time. In early February, we had begun to implement this feature, as the 'Photos App' according to Apple will replace the applications Aperture and iPhoto. Those who participate in the Apple beta program for Mac OS X, can install 10.10.3 - this version is required for the 'Photos App' and access by the media center.
Another new feature in nessViewer is the display of a map with the GPS position of the captured image and the images in a media show. In the media show map, each image can be displayed in the media show by clicking on the marker. The MediaCenter displays the GPS location (country, city, street) now more accurately (if these data are available) and in the media presentation the GPS position of a picture is now displayed in the bottom center.
In addition, the handling of the DLNA availability has been improved to access DS214play and a presentation can now be started from the selected entry in the MediaCenter.
The media server can now be started automatically when nessViewer is started, so that the shutdown or start of the computer can be setup by the 'Energy Saver' (schedule) and the media server is always available after the computer start. Or you can use, for example, VPN to restart the computer..
In the 64-bit versions, we noticed that some images with orientation data (EXIF) were not displayed correctly what we have hereby fixed.

Once Yosemite 10.3 is officially released, we will upload nessMediaCenter to the AppStore - unfortunately it will then still take (at least) about 1 week until the AppStore version will be available. We would like to upload the new version now, which unfortunately is not allowed.
