Seems like the first review for Xtreamer is out. Those considering it for BDMV playback better hold back.

http://www.mpcclub.com/modules/Reviews/rev...ew_xtreamer.pdf

"We start off with problems using Blu-Ray backups. Off course, full blu-ray is not supported however we should have the ability to play the main movie in M2TS format.
We have been struggling quite a few times to get the movie started. What happened was selecting the m2ts starts loading however then stops leaving the loading splash animation on screen, locked up.
We have to try and start the M2TS file multiple times before it actually manages to load the movie."

And no mention if it can bitstream HD audio...

Well, every player has their pros & cons. If only they can come up with a player that satisfies everybody at a reasonble price, they will really have a winner there! Maybe the new Popcorn Hour can do that? I find the Xtreamer quite interesting because it can play 1080p MKV, 720p RMVB and it's open source so if they manage to survived in this competitive market they will be the player to watch for.

Yup, every player has pros & cons. So the cons for this player is non-working BDMV playback (hopefully new firmware can fix it) smile.gif

So if you want to play 4:3 on a 16:9 TV without side black bars, use the TV remote control.

Lesen problem only. Not limitation on firmware. So guys, dun worry about the passthru as it will be enable soon. My feeling la.....

DTS and Dolby, want money only. Maybe Xtreamer nego kaw kaw with them as the Xtreamer is selling at a affordable cheap price.....
