Miro 1.0 - Turn your computer into an internet TV

About: Behind the Scenes

Miro is a free application for channels of internet video (also known as ‘video podcasts and video rss). Miro is designed to be easy to use and to give you an elegant fullscreen viewing experience.

There are thousands of free internet video channels that you can watch. You’ll be able to download all the videos that each channel offers and when new ones are released, Miro will grab them automatically.

Unlike tiny videos on websites like YouTube, Miro videos are usually very high quality and look great when watched full screen. Since Miro downloads videos completely before you watch, your videos will never skip or stutter while they are playing.

You should check out this video on One Laptop Per Child’s amazing mesh wireless network as an example:

I found it while using Miro, which you can download here.

Windows and Mac are both okay with Miro.
