Try the following according to your budget:-
- TViX HD N1
- Xtreamer Sidewinder
- Mede8er
- AC Ryan POHD

I believe, all these comes with good firmware(software upgrade) support and they are well known players around your budget region.

Also, please ask the seller to show you the media player interface and ensure that the chipset(like processor) are with "DD+" version by now. smile.gif

That's why I mention TViX HD N1 Cafe... due to simplycity of the interface. Xtreamer is not bad as my dad using it everyday! Even at his old age, he can search youtube with Xtreamer... LOL

Yes,... older SideWinder is without heatsink and you need to purchase separately. New sidewinder comes with heatsink installed.

acryan good player but bugged down by crappy firmware. really annoying especially with mkv using new header compression.

xtreamer also using realtek but at least they are fast with the fix.

what's good player using sigma now? need to jump ship.
