It's an OK player... I have an A.C Ryan 3100p and a Medi8er 500X. You would think with IDENTICAL hardware the A.C Ryan would be a no brainer HOWEVR the MEde8er has better Programers & Firmware. IMO The Mede8er has beter Network Streaming and a huge support base. Check out and compare how they handle there forums, and the all to important, "frequency between FIRMWARE releases" before you buy...
can someone please answer me this question i am planning on buying this player bu't can i plug it on my t.v and using my usb flash drive which has a bluray movie which is probably in mkv format or mp4 can it play it with high quality no problems no nothing ?? another question can i plug in it two sound systems because i have a sub and another speakers system so i need to have 2 white holes and 2 red holes 1 please answer me it's really important
I am thinking to get the 2TB version, but I am just wondering if I play a 4:3 video file donloaded from youtube in mp4 format, will it stretch and destroy the video to 16:9 format or will it automatically resize so I get black bars to left and right, like the pictures at 3:53, hope someone got an answer!
You need mp4 modifier .. this tells the file to disaplay in either 4:3 or 16:9, then if tv is set to auto, it will display correctly. This is ok machine but UI looks very dated and functional, not beautiful like Xbmc. get green drive, @5200 not 7200rpm they run too hot.
I have just bought one of these and I wish I hadn't, the user interface is terrible it's like using a dos programme. Worst thing I have ever bought. Functions are far too basic

@intruder1300 Weird how you and @Almanzajj's comments are identical, word for word. I'd almost suspect some spammy attempts to bad mouth this gadget by a commercial rival...
@flynnduism no spam here. I have sent the AC Ryan box back and bought a PS3 320gb Does everything I want, that the ryan doesn't. AC Ryan need to re invent their interface and make do what it's supposed to be designed to do. I am not supprised others have had the same problem with this box
Can anyone tell me what i should choose between the WD TV Live HD Media Player and the A.C. Ryan Playon!HD Mini? And why? Because i really dont kwow the difference.
@XR269 The interface has been improved, it looks better, it feels faster and i can easily find movies in my library, since i can just use a movie tab which sorts out all movie files on the hdd (or any other source). I don't know if the older interface had it too, since i bought it yesterday and updated it after a quick tryout
@ingavanaga flimsy Xtreamer with its heat problems, loud fan and only room for a 2.5" drive? At least the Playon is reliable on both hardware and firmware with its regular updates! Have got it for over a year now and it's still the best one out there beating all the rest in tests!
The user interface is very ulgy, why not make some interface like PS3 or xtreamer, or PopBox? yeat a great device I own one and say it is worth to buy!
what is the F@#$%!&G PRICE????????????? your website is so ridicules it doesn't list the price, good luck selling it like that you can't even find it anywhere
@AvalonWolf it's still doing good and I still use it daily, I love it
it doesn't get hot imo, at first I was worried about the noise it would produce but after having it a while, I must the fan makes very little noise and you won't really hear it in the background if you are watching a movie.
I suggest putting a HDD in it, you will get a little more noise but really a little and its worth it, so I suggest getting a HDD by samsung or western digital from the green series, they are low in noise
