  • I understand that this thing comes with 2 USB ports. But can you copy files between the USB drives or can you delete files on the USB drives?

    • Does anyone out there have one of these?

        A colleague of mine has one and is happy with it. It can NOT decode DTS audio; you will get silence if you hook it up directly to your TV unless you hook it up to a home theatre receiver where it will pass AC3 and DTS through to be decoded happily. It plays 1080p MKV fine if they are encoded correctly (Profile L4.1 or lower) just as the Popcorn Hour does. It does NOT have any native ability to connect to your LAN (no ethernet port) but on the support forum for the product (google it) it seems with modified firmware and a USB>Ethernet cable you can achieve this. There is apparently an issue with it working well with 1TB external drives formatted to NTFS. Again, check out the support forum for more info. You won't get any hardware x264 playback device cheaper though.

  • or should I just get a XBox and play my movies through it?

    • yes get the xbox 360 … you get to play games as well !!
      you can stream divx with xbox too
      although mkv are not supported, but a simple conversion from mkv to 720p mp4 works perfectly !!

  • Got this for $169 back in December when it was still fairly brand new to the market.

  • Does it support ISO format??

  • See product spec's here. Pretty well the same as I copied from the Mwave site.
