Hmm unsure whether to get this or Apple TV to watch NHL Gamecenter Live on my TV. Time to investigate.

    I have a PS3, the app stutters/rewinds live feeds even with an ethernet connection. I have tested Apple TV and runs smoothly.

Just be aware, this unit won't pay MKV files. I can't find anything about FLV.

  If it can't play MKV then I can't see the point for this price…

  I believe it plays MKV files.. their tv does

    Out of the 5 reviews I read, 3 didn't mention file types and 2 said it doesn't play them.
    The only thing I can find saying it does is a review from TechRadar saying it had trouble playing one of the MKV files they had, assuming they had others and they worked fine.
    You might be right but everything I'm finding is leaning towards not playing them. It's a hard call.

I have a LG Smart TV, Basically it is a TV with this box inbuilt.

As a review on the TV side of the software the interface is crap and the choices are slim.

We use an AppleTV2 instead which basically has the same features but has simple direct access to iTunes and allows you to control and stream direct to the device from a iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.

So this basically allows you to get all the LG Apps…such as AFL, NRL highlights/replays, iview, Bigpond TV channels, etc?

As for all this talk about ATV…boxee box is king
