    just ordered one

    When you confirming order details it asks you to select shipping method which has a charge for road freight or insured. pick either one and it will revert to zero dollars after.

    Also, how many USB slots are there?

      Already one here http://junglejumble.com.au/review/product/list/id/1074/

      We've been selling these for a year or so. - Never had a complaint. I guess the price helps. Look these aren't the prettiest units on the market - nor the most feature rich. But realistically for $20 with free shipping??? We had a gentleman drive all the way out from Blacktown last weekend to pick one up for $25. Im pretty sure they spent more on lollies than the unit. - No we're not open on the weekend - I opened the store for him. But seriously. Shipping for these units is expensive, Kogan themselves do a similar unit for $39 plus shipping. (http://www.kogan.com/au/buy/hd-digital-set-top-box-pvr/) . @ $20 for this unit inc shipping, for a unit which does everything the Kogan unit referred to above does as well as play Media files? Twenty bucks!! Buy buy buy buy now now now now. :)

      Edit: Actually - Later Later Later. - Site getting smashed.

      • choofa on 25/02/2013 - 07:32

        I own that Kogan unit and it plays media files avi, mp4, mkv etc.
        It does fail with the odd video or audio codec, and it doesn't decode DTS streams.

        From the spec on your website I'm not confident that your box will be any better.
        Can someone please confirm what formats this box will play?

      Some drive work - some don't. It appears not all 2.5" drives pull the same power. We use an unpowered 2.5" WD 500GB in an Astone case - no probs. Other drives - mostly yes, a few no.

          This is the truth. I don't care if you are Labour/Liberal/whatever the NBN is one of the most important things to happen to Australia for a long time.

          Liberals plan as it stands is a joke, if you can even call it a plan.

          The NBN is a win-win for everyone, we ALL get fast internet and it will eventually pay for itself - so all the taxpayer money gets paid back.

        • bigticket on 22/02/2013 - 11:25
          +1

          I don't see the how NBN is the most important things to happen in Australia.

          So sites don't get 'smashed' and ozbargained? Its still going to happen. Will all the servers be able to handle it? I don't think so.
          So that internet gaming can be better?
          So that data transfer is faster?

          The most important factor in terms of the internet is the availability of information in research, business etc. The system as it is in its current state can already handle this.

        • IamEzza on 23/02/2013 - 01:15
          +1

          The current system is a joke, it is very slow and unreliable for much of the population and unless the infrastructure is totally overhauled then it's not going to improve by itself.

          No it's not about sites getting smashed/ozbargained - though the OP's idea of hosting their own server is a perfect example of the business opportunities having the NBN will foster.

          Can't you see how much a part of our lives the internet is becoming? 20 years ago the internet was a complete niche that only computer nerds used. Now everyone uses the internet more and more every day. In a few years having a slow ADSL connection will be the same as having a 56K dialup modem would be today - nearly useless.

          This is the equivalent of rolling out the original copper phone line network. Once it is done it will be serving us well for the next 60 years making it a hugely valuable asset to the country.

    If its the same as the one I currently have for media playback it works well Although It does complain about non compliant mp4 videos. IE freezes or get video only with no audio. Does this suffer the same problem? Also do these come with the latest firmware installed?

Not saying the unit isn't capable of being faulty - If that's the case, we'll replace it. Not hearing back about a product to us - on forums or the phone = happy people in front of their TVs.

      FYI that's not an mkv (container) file. It's an avi containing an MPEG-4 (XviD in particular) video stream, and an AC3 audio stream. Pretty standard stuff, and I'd be suprised if it wasn't supported.

        I just assumed it was mkv because of file size, oops. I'll look for another sample

        I can't edit that post anymore, ah well. Anyway, I bought a media player that was on ozB a few months ago, and it plays SOME mkv, but I believe it has problems with the AC3 audio stream. Hence why I'm hesitant to buy this.

    Just ordered five to give to my sucker neighbours who recently bought crappy SONY TV's that can't play anything after they ignored my advice to buy a Sammy or LG…. grrrrrr.

    Nice Deal JJ! Thanks.

    Just ordered one + the voice recorder - $24 delivered. Just waiting on email with TN.

    Good one rep.

    Will this work on an NTSC tv with no PAL tuner in Australia? ie will it convert to PAL via HDMI?

    12:35 Just ordered without a problem. The Kogan is great value for ~$40 although can't handle hidef mkv. Even if this is no better, it's an unbelievable bargain. Thanks JJ. +1.

    Rep, is it fair to assume that just like the Olin voice recorders you'll be taking these PVRs out of their cartons so that you can fit the contents inside envelopes? Tardis envelopes?? Free delivery by way of wormhole??? This would explain alot. Amazing deal.

      These will be likely 3Kg satchels or eParcel consignments depending on where you live.

    Hi Rep, I am wondering how soon you will reply support emails as I've sent many emails regarding my orders of the Olin 512Mb recorder not being delivered, but got no reply. Are you serious in business or this is just an individual and particular case? Seriously I have no confidence to shop from you now until the case solved. I need communication rather than ignorance.
