I really hate to say this but I think as a bystander, we might want to admit that this thread is getting really really commercial. It is supposed to let us share the user experience and exchange useful info and tips. But what I can see is:
My Xtreamer can play this file but XXXX cannot play...
Firstly I would think it is not a good way (by putting down other products) to promote your product. Secondly, when people say "well My extreamer cannot play this file ... why... And the answer we see is that " the file is very badly produced" ... what is this man... also, WDTV is HDMI1.2, not 1.3 as of the xtreamer - they are different level and WDTV has advanced to WDTV live (and a stripped down version of WDTV - while don't have network feature, it could downmix DTS and support deep color)
Those who are interested in Xtreamer (or buying any other media player) should really consider the below (but not limited to) :
1. Whether you can tahan noise produced by a player (some come with Fan, some don't)
2. Whether you need a player to play both HD material and RMVB
3. Whether you prefer external hdd over internal
Qs to avoid are:
1. will the movie stutter when played by this player - this q is not useful because people can always find a file which a particular player cannot play smoothly.
2... for others to add....
It seems you like to put alot of restriction on how people like to write on forum.
But as far I can see, not many forumer will like the thing you wrote. If you have any comment on any media player, we surely welcome you to share it the way you like. Not teaching student to write essay here on how to express our point of view.
Forum is used to share information. Lowyat.net also has sales thread, so what is the commercial all about?? Any problem? Sharing with forumer about market info is classified as commercial? can your life escaped from 'commercial'?
Put your thought on it before posting such comments. You are smart, but i dun think others are stupid.
