i never used before any media player, Xtreamer Pro is my 1st media player, so i'm not sure how others performance compared with this, but this look really nice & run quietly.

I haven't really used deep into it yet caused just get it yesterday, anyway I try on both of my LCDs, found that bit dark on Sharp 32A53M but quite bright on Panasonic 42LZ80M.

I brought it here http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1442224, it come with all the cables (HDMI, composite, SATA) but without wifi dongle, have to buy separately.

So far i did'nt encounter the problem you are facing, i add single 1 TB HDD into it, i watch few episodes drama continuously the body just a little bit warm, not that hot. Maybe you need to send back to the seller for checking.

I'm using Samsung F3 1TB HDD.

According to the Xtreamer Forum, the latest 2.4 RC3 FW will be released by this weekend probably Saturday night local time (22:00+1 GMT), our time will be on Sunday morning perhaps.

Perhaps due to the members non stop shoot them because of blank promise.
