i have setup and sold a lot of 4100 and 5100 dvico units with latest firmware to play mkv support ... (with 750gb to 1tb harddrives installed)
so i have a lot of experience with this player (even the sarotech and older dvico 4000 series)
and all i can tell u guys the 4100 and 5100 series is wow man .....

played
matrix 1080p (12gb download)
transformers 720p
300 720p
predator 1080p (8gb download)
Sports illustrated 720p
no country for no men 720p

the player does not even slow down at all when displaying these picture in all its glory ....

the beauty is i am also enjoying lost current season 4 at highest quality mkv format .... and other shows...

i can't wait to get my hands on the dvico 6500 .. that will be totally perfect ...

but the price also wow rite? dvico has better options compare with popcornhour, hences justify the pricetag. Popcornhour is mainly for streaming purpose instead.

u can always get the dvico 4100 series instead....
but u right about the popcorn its uses the same processor as the 4100 and 5100, and the pricing is mouth watering...

also their main page states that it excepts a internal hard drive .. that a big thumbs up ...

"You can stream or playback your digital media content from a variety of sources, such as your PC, NAS, digital camera, USB mass storage devices (Flash drive, HDD, DVD drive) , internal HDD* and even directly from the Internet via the Media Service Portal."

i bought dvico 4100 rm1.2k (support 1TB WD sata2 hdd). very satisfied with the performance of this player. can play mkv files/videos 8gb without hang/stack. using component or hdmi cable u will get perfect picture/video plus superb sound via optical output.

ii went to c-zone yesterday and check. 4100 and 5100 is priced at RM1.5k and RM1.8k respectively. While there is some old ones priced lesser (RM599-899) and support PATA. i somehow still looking into this popcorn, as i think its quality is on par with Dvico except some limited function.

Can have a look at HDX X900, a Popcorn Clone with Sigma 8635 Chipset and SATA2 drive capability. http://www.hdtvplayer.info/content/view/31/28/

These NMT players are all using the same Sigma Chipset 8364/5 as well as Syabas Network Media Tank middleware. Hence the TV interface are all the same. Syabas's firmware upgrades are shared among all these companies and they get the updates at the same time. There are only slight differences between the firmwares. The major difference is the package that each manufacturer sells. Casing, output connectors etc...

I've been eyeing on dvico too but I thought the interface looks a little dull.

I know I can't expect it to have a user interface as good as Windows Media Center but if selecting a media to file is like browsing Windows explorer, I think popcorn is better if it has its own navigation scheme other than explorer like interface.
