Paying money to buy into a company with no evidence whatsoever of their revenues is a far worse strategy.

A Form 15 company run by a convicted felon and his obviously unqualified family? That company doesn't get the benefit of the doubt. They have to prove what they say, not hide the truth behind any blind or smokescreen that they can concoct.

They're liars. We know that for an absolute fact, unless you think there really were 15,000 NP-1s in the retail chain in January. That was a deliberately false statement, wouldn't you say? How about anything that ever came out of Lorraine's mouth regarding NP-1 delivery?

There will never be audited financials unless they can find an auditing firm that's sufficiently crooked to bless their made-up numbers. Such a firm would be unlikely to stay in business for very long.

Perhaps they should create the Foley Auditing Company and audit themselves. Longs here would trumpet such a report as absolute truth.

Interesting discussion on avsforum:

first guy(AVS special member):
Uh, no. Their web page specifically states differently. They commit to providing new codecs as they were released, which at the very least should include 4K Netflix support, since that was out well before this box was available.


Perhaps I am misunderstanding what specific codec has to wait for next-gen. Honestly, I find it hard to keep it all straight.


second guy (AVS special member):
Neither VP9 nor HEVC has "been released". Both are in the later stages of development leading to a wide roll-out in 2015 followed by several years of refinement, but HEVC just happens to be slightly ahead of VP9 in that there are a few hardware decoders available and they were finalized around the time that VP9 was put forth by Google for companies to incorporate into the next-gen decoders. Nuvola has reportedly licensed a third-party software video decoder from Ittiam for HEVC and VP9 decoding but I haven't seen any information that confirms they have actually put out an update to bring that to their products. Netflix 4K streaming is currently not open for anyone outside of a few Netflix hardware partners who use powerful dedicated ASICS for decoding high-bitrate HEVC streams, so don't expect it to arrive on the current Nuvola platform until you actually see it with your own eyes. Next year's release of Intel and Nvidia hardware will bring HEVC decoding for 4K Netflix, so look for it later in the year.
