Do you guys have any problem reading mkv, etc?
Really considering POHD/Mini and the WDTV Live. I can live without the rmvb files, just a question on the others HD format files.

You already answered your own question .....if rmvb files are not important to you, choose the WDTV Live as elites here did mentioned that the PQ of WDTV Live is better

Actually the PQ not really different. If you use 1080p projector project to 120", then you might notice the different. My AV intallers also mention can't see the different for 60" LCD full HD.

Not only the RMVB file capable, but a lot of advantages features in POHD, like time seek, YAMJ, BDISO and BDMV supported, subtitle font size and colour changeable, HDMI cable, full function of remote control, etc....

two different opinion..
but really if no different I'll probably go for POHD due to the bonus rmvb.
Anyway I'm just a typical viewer, not the elite type users as others
As long as no lagging during plas is OK by me.

Ya, undoubtedly the POHD has advantage in features like time seek & YAMJ.....but it seems that the latest fw for YAMJ still got bugs, and are you sure that POHD can play BDISO?

BDISO sure can play. But no menu selection.

or mine is 150 but even this is good enough coz max can go is 2.5mbps. afterall i'm using Linksys WRTG54

Aiya, of course ma, pls use wireless n router, you can feel the power of n streaming.

Btw, fyi, A.C.Ryan wireless N is one transmission and 2 receiving data. The cheapest is 1 transmission and 1 receiving. The best is 2 transmission and 2 receiveing but this will cost double the price.

so for those who is using wireless n router and 300mbps wireless usb dongle, can you pls show me your transfer/transmission speed? can u get more then 2.5mbps? have u test transferring 10GB file? how long does it takes?

The max bitrate for wireless n you can get is 13Mbps. Wired network is 25Mbps.

If in that case, rather add a little extra to get the a pair of homeplug

i got a question to all the PRO' s here!

i use my altec lansing THX speakers for my ps3 gaming/bluray.
hdmi is connected to LCD and audio is connected using the red/white jack.

I noticed at the back of the AC Ryan and WD Live there is no audio red/white output, only optical and hdmi. so that means my altec lansing wont work??

sound will be coming out from my lcd tv??

You are talking about which AC Ryan?

If you are talking about POHD, Who says no composite audio?

RCA should be a standard connection for all media players!!!

would like to ask POHD user, if copy the bluray dvd movie files into the hard drive, this POHD can output the DTS HD or Dolby Tru HD or not?

Confirm cannot.

Which media player has the sort of output when a mkv , blu-ray copied to HDD with DTS-HD MA?

I mean the digital output can ouput the DTS HD and Dolby Thru HD to the amplifier, not direct output the analogue signal from the POHD media player.

Let me clarify:
DTS HD and Dolby TrueHD available in Bluray only, not DVD.
POHD can downmix DTS HDMA to stereo or DTS 5.1ch. For Dolby TrueHD still cannot output the sound thru HDMI.

Added on February 26, 2010, 4:31 pmYes, from DTS HD MA to DTS 5.1ch thru HDMI to amp. TrueHD cannot.
