lastAvenger Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Check TE dude, they have a thread running there, i remember reading. With custom firmware, i can only assume it fills all the features missing in WD TV I guess. and don't both cost 6-6.5k ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigsaw Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 As for the WD TV, yeah TE pe KMD sells it. Apna praashant also sells it here. Try pming him for the latest price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kazekage Gaara Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 my one n only requirement is to play mkv files with hdmi port n optical output ! nothing else ! so coming to tht which is better : wdtv or asus ? as simple as tht ! i have to make payment tomorrow ! so reply fast ppl ! pls ! Also keep in mind that the latest hi-def movies are sometimes also released in a .mp4 format. A friend of mine has A.C. Ryan Play-On HD!. It's supposed to be better than WD HD TV (first model) but it DOES NOT play .mp4 format files, so he's kinda stuck Also, wasn't there a WD HDTV II (second iteration) ? Also, buddy, custom firmware (if working properly) will ALWAYS be a good thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shantz Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Keep in mind that Asus is not too good with firmware updates for their other products... btw, have you considered xtreamer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(m confused again ) , buygamingstuff.com is offering asus for 6k, n if i will go wid wdtv i will go with a used if ne1 is selling ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shantz Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 ^^^^ xtreamer is 2 slow for his need.... i kno xactly wt he is lukin fr.....better stick with asus ..... Why do you say xtreamer is slower? it uses the same chipset as Asus (infact, it is slightly faster and also has support for IPTV broadcasts though IPTV is not supported in firmware).. plus xtreamer has more inputs/outputs and also has internal HDD support..

Ashishnk Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 yeah, thr u go..... has hdd + iptv + more i/o , but same chipset...... all he needs is a very fast n reliable 720p/1080p mkv movie streaming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is _not_ same chipset.. it is a different chipset with added functionality and also higher clock speed.. and playing the movies from disk will always be faster/better than streaming.. He can even download them directly onto the player from internet rather than having his PC on.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
