Sony Wireless Media Player (SMP-N200) Review

[ThickMadame80]

The questions I have are: 1) Can this play internet radio beside Pandora type formats? i.e a radio station in another city or country? 2) Watching Youtube vids are you able to search via this device on Youtube if you are at the homepage or within your account?

Surprised you chose this over watermelon.

[myself36]

how do you connect it to you PC?

@myself36

y the hell would you connect this to a PC?

this is meant to stream to a tv and play data from an ext hdd on your tv

lol :)

[myself36]

@AmsterdamPlayah as in how do i stream my media content to it? but nvm i found out how. i just downloaded "ps3 media server" works like a charm, since it has the same coding as the ps3. also works on the new xbox 360 slim. just saying.

@myself36 its wireless so WIFI

Ok so based on several reviews, comments and ultimately this video, I decided to buy one myself. I got to say that im very pleased and satisfied.

Ive tried  almost every file extension, and it plays without any problems.

There is one flaw though: when you share a video folder on a Win7 computer on your network, the SMP only displays the avi files and no MKV's. Does any1 else also have this problem?

Thx Thunder-E for this recommendation btw :)

@AmsterdamPlayah Get PS3 Media Server (freeware, google it) It transcodes everything and is a wonderful media server program.

can you connect this to a wireless keyboard via wifi?

[booredatwork]

@MrMugenwii nope but there is an Android app you can use

[maekar]

so if i had a bunch of movies and content on my pc which is connected to my wifi network am i able to stream that content through this via wifi or do i have to use the usb connection

[AmsterdamPlayah]

[GurBurProductions]

[allamiro01]

Can I browse to a website and view tvs that on those websites other than hulu and youtube ??

Does this support flash videos on the web other than whats on the box ??

[GurBurProductions]

@allamiro01 yes

[booredatwork]

@antonyponvijai since you have both, which do you use to stream content on your home network and why?

[jackiemack2010]

[Terd2402]

I think I still love my Apple Tv better. Lol.

[marteaga15]

@Terd2402 Yeah and what a resounding success Apple Tv has been lol

[Terd2402]

@marteaga15 if it works for me i don't care how many other people use it or hate it. My apple TV and iPad 2 love it. Only apple products i own.

[acuratlnigga]

LOL component cables if you still use those. And Sony havev been cheap pathetic bastards since day one no HDMI cable with ps3. Microsoft gave HDMI with elite Xbox

[joesingle]

Excellent Video Review!

[don198769]

Does my ps3 do any of this stuff. I don't really use it anymore for anything. Might have to start playing around with it again.
