• So easy...

  baldclubJuly 31, 2011

  Pros

  Works quickly and so easily!!

  Cons

  Discontinued apparently (focusing on their other software), but they still keep a free version on their site.

  Summary

  I've been screwing around with NAS, XBMC and more but this has been a really easy setup, that it will allow me breathing space from all the frustration trying to play with the above mentioned solutions.

• Awesome for Macs + XBOX 360

  ericarsMay 27, 2011

  Pros

  Fast, easy to use, simple

  Cons

  No complaints here

  Summary

  This does exactly what it is supposed to do. By turning it on from your Mac, you are able to wirelessly stream your music, videos, and pictures to your XBOX 360. I actually don't know if you HAVE to have a wifi network setup, but we do. You are able to easily control whichever folders on your computer that you want to stream and share. It's super easy and I use it all the time.

• Great app for your Mac to sync media to your XBOX360.

  Pros

  Simple to install and set-up, literally I was streaming all my compatible media from my MacBook Pro to my new (2010) XBOX 360 in two minutes. So far no problems!

  Cons

  I think it's more of an xbox problem but I can't play music I bought from Itunes...Working on it.

  Summary

  Bottom line if you have a Mac and an Xbox360 this app will allow to stream your media from your Mac to your Xbox it's completely user friendly. Enjoy.

• Slick - and it works!

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Rivet works exactly as advertised. And, it takes into account that your media files might be in nested folders (and even on external drives as in my case). It is seamless. Performance is excellent as well - streaming video from an external HD attached to a wifi-attached Macbook was flawless.Easily worth the $.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Does exactly what it promises. Nice UI. Can play everything I've thrown at it so far, except of course for DRM-protected tracks. Great app, worth every penny.
