Review by MPCClub


Added on October 8, 2009, 3:59 pmanyone buying this? i've contacted their website but no reply. They're selling on ebay for US$200, slightly more than POHD but mpcclub has reviewed and confirmed playback of BDMV and BD-ISO.

i dun watch rmvb but i know without rmvb this wont be a hit here. lol

from review, no mention of HD audio bitsteam (from the screen menu, no HD audio mention also)
runs hot.

but still can hold it's own agains realtek..as the closing remarks below..


It played everything I threw at it with ease and played them well! I like the fact that it could play BD ISO and BD Folder playback well, something that the new crop of players using the Realtek SOC are failing miserably to do so far.

I agree with AR188 that this is perhaps a better alternative compared to the Realtek based players. But there are a few glaring mistakes on the review:

1 - Ronin BD ISO at 7.9GB? Might as well just release on a D9. rolleyes.gif
2 - No test of HD audio bitstream. But since Dvico can do it, I'm sure this one can as well.
3 - No "real" network port. Yes it includes a USB-to-LAN converter, but no real tests of streaming BD across the network was done. The BD ISO and BDMV tests cannot be used as the average bitrate is only 10Mbps. tongue.gif
4 - BDMV playback just selects the biggest M2TS file and plays it. Boo!
5 - Didn't mention anything about PGS subtitles and language changing.

My 2 cents. laugh.gif

yeah...i noticed the 7.9GB file mentioned with true hd audio...doesn't convince me too...IMHO a review by lyn sifu is 10 times more trustworthy than mpcclub...so any sifu here getting 1 and do a review for us?
