Infuse 5 review: Slick jack-of-all-trades for iOS, Apple TV media playback

<p>Before Steve Jobs first took the stage with iPad in hand, the best way to watch video on the go was from a portable media player like the Archos 605 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archos_Generation_5#605_WiFi). Despite a clumsy user interface and bulky metal casing, this French-made device with a 4.3-inch LCD screen and 160GB storage would play just about anything you could throw at it.</p><p>One of its more intriguing capabilities was the ability to play VIDEO_TS files copied straight off DVD, which came in handy for watching TV shows without having to endure the un-skippable FBI warning and previews on each disc. Using the late, great Fairmount software, I copied multiple seasons directly to the 605 and played them immediately, no conversion necessary.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3169511/videos/infuse-5-review-slick-jack-of-all-trades-for-ios-apple-tv-media-playback.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
