my observation is opposite, i..e sigma is sharper (realtek softer).. so does owners who own both units and spend considerable time on both units..

QUOTE(welwitchia @ Jan 8 2010, 03:48 PM) ^ Wah, that's good. I don't mind spending the money. I'm sick of buying half-baked media players.   it's a trend now to buy half baked solutions.. new owners sure say it's darn good.. until the newness wears off and when can't play this or that file with HD audio, competently.. |

QUOTE(mys_terious @ Jan 9 2010, 04:16 PM) i got realtek chip player but not going to pg so soon.. if i do go will let u know.. 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...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:) |

QUOTE(welwitchia @ Jan 9 2010, 11:39 PM) I hope this doesn't turn into a Realtek sucks , Sigma rules thread. sigma great for H264 and can play HD audio, realtek 1073dd great for RMVB720.. ok. that settles it all.. 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. 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.. |

QUOTE(DarkNite @ Jan 10 2010, 01:09 PM) Not feeding the fire....but.... how to compare realtek with sigma as sigma doesn;'t play RMVB...My source are mostly MKV hardly any RMVB720, feels missing out on the actions.  Don't mind PM me the URL for RMVB720. Would like to compare their qualities, Can?Added on January 12, 2010, 10:06 pm QUOTE(moomoos @ Jan 12 2010, 07:06 PM) the brochure didnt state BDMV or BDiso, sure you want a player that costs 1.3K , but does it load the BD properly like a real BD player?? not sure cos it's in chinese..but the retailer seems to say can play40GB or so BD ripped files, still have to check out 1st, but cost around RM1.3k i was demo-ed the HDmax something similar to dune, and she say the 330A PQ and AQ is very much better will drop by and test later ( once they fully set up ) http://www.tomacro.com anyway better get the HDx BD1 for less than 1k.. also check if it bitstreams both HD audio?

maybe can consider get a WD live (better H264 decoding) + a cheapo RMVB 720p player from yangxi (for RMVB 720p decoding)? better than Xtreamer/POHD?

QUOTE(moomoos @ Jan 14 2010, 12:34 AM) yes would like to have one that does the menu, seriously does the HDX BD1 does the menu stuff does it come with a separate PSU what's the fuss with all the other extra features in the BD disc?anyway am sure it comes with external power brick.. too small to fit size for it to have internal PSU like a full width BD deck.. |
