        I've been using an xtreamer for the last couple of years, the company it's self are a bit of a joke, and there forum does not allow any criticism of there products what so ever, posts are constantly being removed, or threads locked by mods,
        but, there products are surprisingly good, and there about to release there new media player called the "prodigy"

        Xtreamer Prodigy Announcement!

        it even has the option of a DVB-t tuner, prices are to start at ?119 for the basic model, for the price it looks a good player.

          tbh gimp, your 'super duper' telly that you hardly ever mention is probably capable of playing most formats and more than likely has a usb port.
          If i were you, id try playing a number of formats of films off your existing usb stick. if they work id get a portable hdd to store films on

          3: Your total contribution to this forum, bordering on trolling, seems to have been a collection of snipes, one liners & asterisked expletives

            want a box that plays most video files,mainly the formats used by torrent sites, or other download sites.

                Most players play everything. some don't play as you say is .MKV, iso, and img. And it is VERY important that you buy a player that does play these, as these are the better quality movie files.
                There are loads of media player out there ranging from cheap to expensive.
                As you probably know, I was looking too, and have settled for a dedicated PC for the Front room telly. At least with a PC, you know it is going to be future proof, should any new formats come out.

                    HDD Media Player are the products that can move the contents of the hard disk inside a TV or monitor to play out of the tool. They are the alternatives to DVD players, VCD, DVD, digital photo frames, mobile hard drives and other electronic products, as the tool for mobile hard disk services, it needs to use with drives.
