The MyTV Box is Storex's new multimedia gangway. On paper it's mouthwatering: HD video playback via the network or USB, SDHC card reader and internet services. On sale for well under £100, is the little Storex black box worth its salt? Compact, the box is also elegant and well-finished with a black, brushed aluminium casing. No screen here however, unlike on the StoryBox Ultimate. There's still a fan, however, to extract the heat given off by the decoding chip. It makes a sort of crackling noise. A bit strange to listen to. The remote is only just ok. The plastic is fine, but no more. The buttons are well placed and it sits well in your hand. Of course, at this price, you don't get a backlit remote. The menus are the same as ever. Storex haven't developed them themselves and make do with the kit they get from Realtek, the decoding chip manufacturer. Nothing original here then, the same drawbacks as with almost all entry level media centres. You can't display music album covers, visualize photos in mosaic form or create a video jukebox. Worse, it doesn't read the tags on MP3 tracks. The strict minimum then. Certain users will get used to it and it is responsive and easy to get a handle on.
