Has this been verified with a meter? If not, and someone is willing to loan me one to generate the charts, I would be happy to show the results. I can get hold of the Live for comparison, just need one with the Realtek chip.

i got realtek chip player but not going to pg so soon.. if i do go will let u know..

bro, remember when i tested my wdtv in your house we compared with your bd for the same show.. our naked eye could hardly tell the diff between the two.. but if u compare sigma n realtek there is definately a diff.. to some ppl (me) realtek is softer n more noise.. to others maybe realtek is better.. i am no pro so i am not going to argue:)

I dun think anyone is gonna say realtek is better than sigma at H264 video (so far those with both units already confirm sigma is better at this).. usually they just say realtek is a great player which can also play RMVB 720p as a bonus...

blink.gif Don't la regret!
The way I see it, is that this media thingy is still at its infancy, as such there will forever be a better player on the horizon.

The LIVE doesn't read the frame rate of the mkv file. It just plays them back at the resolution/Hz that you've set. You might wanna consider that before u jump over to the LIVE. Don't say we didn't tell u the problems with the LIVE. biggrin.gif

I hope this doesn't turn into a Realtek sucks , Sigma rules thread.
If the POHD can't do high reframes, then all the current Realteks can't. The important point here is that there aren't many mkvs out there with high reframes. So dissing the POHD because of that is ridiculous.

sigma great for H264 and can play HD audio, realtek 1073dd great for RMVB720.. ok. that settles it all..

as for high reframes.. if I see any files with this, I'll just delete it if giving problem.. it's an encoding error by the creator.... can't blame a player if cannot play files due to encode errors..
