Previously, the star ceiling creators managed to get power to their home theater, now they want everything to be automated by a single database. According to the creators, “I decided early on in the theater project that I didn’t want to fumble with discs, I wanted all of my movie content stored on a computer and I wanted to be able to browse it via any internet enabled device. Many high end home theaters feature a large touchscreen to control all aspects of the theater and automation, but rather than spending tons of money on a crappy touch interface I wanted to have the whole thing controlled via an iPhone (or optionally, any other web enabled device).” From what we can tell, they have done a smashing job at making everything automatic. For the Home Theater PC (HTPC) they had your top of the line processor and 8 1 Terabyte drives to store the movies. In addition to this the interface has a My Movies database, which allows you to search by the type of movie you would like to watch next.
