Best player under $100 period.
I Highly recommend this player, got one and it is awesome. Plays every format I throw at it and works exceptionally over network when wired, not so much in wireless mode. I am buying another one now for the kids.
doesnt play hi10p, that anime encoding format .
Can sometimes find them refurb for $60. But at $80 it's still a good price.
Way better than Roku 2.
I have the previous version of this device, and just took it on a 2,800 mi. road trip to California and back. Patched it in to the car's A/V system and powered it off of an inverter, then loaded it up with a couple of dozen movies that were saved to a thumb drive as MP4's. Worked like an absolute charm. Not so much as a hiccup. And it saved us the hassle of having to pack and juggle a bunch of DVD's. Great device, absolutely, and very versatile.
Very buggy in its current state. It tries to do everything but fails at most of it. Great potential if they can get the firmware right.
#3 - No stand-alone player plays anything in Hi10P. Currently, it must be decoded using CPU power, and the only applications that have been developed thus far that are able to do so (especially with Hi-Def content) are x86 processors. And really, they have to be pretty powerful to do so.
We'll be waiting a while before Hi10P is decoded by hardware (either GPU or other similar devices, like what [iirc] Broadcom has for H.264 Level 4.1 8-bit content).
Not sure what is buggy about this. I too have the older version (non wifi). The kids have this and a 1tb WD drive with all their movies. No more scratched DVDs. Totally worth it.
