I love my RPTV ok...

It sure seems like a good product if it comes with those feature.... Too bad I placed my order on Xtreamer....

I think the only reason to go for this instead of the Xtreamer is the *promised* BD ISO support. I think it is also very likely the Xtreamer will support this in the future, if they want to be competitive. The Xtreamer looks like good value, esp with the free Wifi antenna.

Yup, I believe those features will be added in on the incoming patches so having a reliable brand on the media player is very important.

Unless the BD ISO support needs hardware upgrade
I think the Xtreamer will most likely add this feature in the future firmware upgrade

Snippet from 1080p MKV playback:

The first movie I tested was an old favourite of mine, The Fifth Element Re-mastered 1080p.mkv, this movie has an excellent section which seriously tests contrast, colour saturation, lag, ‘Jaggies’ and bit rate handling. It’s the part where the 5th element steps out onto the ledge, looks down on the flying highway and then the drops into Bruce’s taxi cab. Just that section alone can expose a multitude of sins on a weak player, and the pursuit and chase after she lands can even make the most respected player melt its solder points from the processor heat.
Running at Full 1080p/24, 30Mbps and a bit rate of 1509 kbps, it sure did put this player through its paces.
However, the colours held true and the contrast had the deepness I would expect without any adjustment to the panel settings. I could see no motion lag, stutter, ‘Jaggies’, blocking, micro blocking, colour bleed or anything else that would have made me think that I wasn’t actually running the original from disc, rather than a backup I made streaming across my LAN.

And here's a from the section on BDMV playback:

It was time now to move onto another format, a straight blu-ray dump of Quantum of Solace in its original directory structure and with Full HD audio sound streams as well.
The file format for blu-ray dumps is .m2ts and on occasions I have seen a few players struggle with this format, though of late this is becoming less frequent.
Upon loading the file, the Dolby TrueHD light lit up on my receiver and upon checking the info screen displayed by the player, it stated that it was using the said format. Again the player had no issues with video reproduction and was running in the correct format of /24 - which is the way I like it. I could clearly hear the 6th and 7th speaker kick in and become part of the surround, so thumbs up here!
Video playback was smooth and performed as well, if not better than a player twice its price. It handled the 38 Mbps frame rate and 768 kbps bit rate effortlessly.

Do we have it locally? Or it is better to order it online? If yes, care to share the link? Thanks!

Hi all,

Whats the difference between this and the Dvico6500a?

As far as i know this can play RMVB but the Dvico cant.. Other than that whats the difference?

How about PQ and AQ? Can match Dvico ma?

Thans

I calibrated an AC Ryan thru a Panasonic S10 a few weeks ago. I also calibrated a Dvico thru a Panasonic X10 last week. From a calibration point of view they are both the same. WDTV on the other hand has issues with the colour space conversion.

Edit:
After relooking at the calibration results, the AC Ryan does have oversaturated greens and cyans but I believe this is a result of the S10. I will have to check this out again when I have the chance.

Wow bro, you always seem to come to my rescue hahaha... How bout AQ? Seems the same for both?

If both have the same PQ & AQ, then i guess this is a much better player as it plays RMVB.. Any downside of this player compared to Dvico?

Bro,

care to calibrate the xtreamer on my PV80? hehe....
