Re: Network Media Tank



I think on balance I would recommend it....its not perfect but if you
are after a cheap device to play up to 1080p material this is the one for
you :)

No, codec support is via the manufacturer, but in saying that it is pretty
good so far mkv, ISO, vob , H.264  to name a few.

Interesting
-
would
you
recommend
it?

Is
codec
support
hard
written
into
firmware
or
is
there
any
way
of
adding
additional
support
for
codec's
not
included?

Paul.
