I'm planning to buy a media player to hook up onto my TV and sound system with a budget of rm500 to rm1000. Any suggestions of a gd media player?

Edit:

I've chosen the 3 most popular players (AC Ryan Fat/Mini, WD TV, Xtreme Fat/Mini), but I'm confused of which 1 to buy so far cause there's alot of things to consider, so i need some external opinion on what i should get. I'm considering price, performance during movie playback (fast forwards/reverse) and supported formats.

I'm also confused of whether to get internal or external and which 1 is the cheaper option. My PC and my TV are far apart, so if i go for internal HD, i need a wireless n network, expensive. If i go for external HD, the performance will reduce, but don't know till what extend for 2.5" and 3.5" HD's.

With the budget you are willing to set aside, you actually have quite a bit of choice. Firstly, do you need to playback RM files? If yes, ACRyan, Xtreamer would be good to consider. If no, you've broaden your options to include a Dune 3.0 Base

Yangxi's K3(1080p Full HD media player) also not bad, can play a lot of major format since it is using the current and latest chipset.

Ac Ryan la

Unless you need to play rmvb files , you can cross wdtv off your list
Indeed it is the cheapest among the 3 choices
Using wdtv live and working great so far, missing features like time seek/volume which can added with plugins and maybe some stutters playing movies with LAN connection, not so sure about wireless

realtek chipset price fall down.. but "western" brand price still .... ac , xtream

Do you know where to get the WD TV plugins?
