Features
Overview: The Kodak Theatre HD Player allows you to use your HDTV to
wirelessly view pictures and videos, and listen to music stored on your PC. You
can also view videos you find on the Internet as well. The built-in memory card
slot lets you instantly view photos and videos you just recorded. The Theatre HD
Player is controlled by the unique "pointer" remote control.

radio frequencies (RF) instead of infrared (IR) technology, so it is not

and three buttons (Select, Back, and Hide Cursor).
