Greetings,
I'm looking at purchasing a AC Ryan Playon HD Mini 2 Full HD
Any thoughts on this unit good or bad?
I like the 1Gbit Ethernet as I have a 1Gbit LAN and a 3TB NAS already.
I have an olde TEAC Freeview receiver (less said the better) that can record to a USB in TRP format and note the AC Ryan supports TRP playback (maybe not the audio encoding but TS-Doctor can sort that)
That aside, it looks like a good balanced unit for the price and all the minuses on the reviews don't impact me.
Have a Realtek HD audio driver (5.1 multi-channel) on my Notebook and it's OK for what I want so AC Ryan quality shouldn't be to bad.
Has anybody attempted to plug a USB 2.0 Blu-ray/DVD drive (LG BP06LU10 External Blu-ray) into this unit or any other Media Player unit and will it read native media or are we lacking the supported codec/drivers.
Just thought I'd ask.
What I'm looking for is 1Gbit Ethernet(Must), Component Interface, HDMI(1.4a bonus),
Optical Audio SPDIF(Coaxial OK), good GUI, good support for media, ShoutCast(or other Internet radio) and Gmail would be a bonus.
Thanks for any thoughts shared.
