Hi all,
I've been quite frustrated with the media player built into my TV, so I'm looking for something awesome instead, and I'd love some suggestions from you.
Requirements:
- Plays MP4, MKV, AVI up to full-resolution
- Good at upscaling/processing videos
- 5.1 DTS/Dolby processing or pass-through
- Ability to manually adjust audio sync delay DURING playback
- Remembers last position played of each file, even if USB is removed, then re-inserted
- Can skip back/forward a few seconds with a press of a remote button
- Slick, fast to navigate, fast to boot, responsive remote
- No fan, or no noise from the fan
XBMC seems to tick many of the codec/UI boxes above.
I'm not too bothered about network streaming or internet services. It's a nice extra if they are available.
Yes, I know I'm asking for lot, but I want something that will not frustrate me every day. I'm prepared to spend £200.
Any suggestions?
Thank you!
