Over at the SnapStream blog, there is a simple post titled "New Beyond TV coming later this week...", which includes a little teaser in it. First off, they state that the new version will be out Thursday, and it will have "some of the usual bug fixes and minor improvements", but it will also have "one significant new feature".Anyone have any insight into what this new "significant" feature will be? Could it be the inclusion of the "Columbus" website which we have mentioned a couple of times (here and here)? Or is it something more ominous and out of the blue? Either way we can expect an update on their blog soon.
Also in this post are two video clips comparing their old intro video, and their new intro video. Go over there and have a look and decide for yourself if the new video is a good change.
1. A quick check over at the BeyondTV forums seems to indicate that the update is DVD burning. Not that you couldn't burn DVDs of recorded content before, but now it's built right into the interface. It looks like BeyondTV 4.5 is probably set for a Thursday release.
