I wouldn't recommend this product. Poor interface and too expensive for what it does. There are much better products that do what you want. I know the Netgear streaming devices handle every kind of format. I had one for years and there wasn't a format it couldn't play. I now have a JB Apple tv2 with inFuse installed on it to read my NAS hard drives. Works flawlessly and plays all types of media. The only drawback to the ATV2 is it's only 720P.

Kenneth, did you ever find the answer to your first question "will this output two video signals simultaneously?" for I too have the same output need and would like to know the answer to your question as well. The old non network version of the WD Media player did not. I hope this new player will.

I went with the Brite-View CinemaTube instead and I am very happy with it. The only problem is you can't use the bittorrent feature with an HFS+ drive. But that's a non-issue for me. Otherwise it works great. And with the new firmware due out any day now you will be able to copy files from you mac to the HD connected to the CinemaTube. I haven't yet used the streaming but it's a cool feature th Asus doesn't have. I use it to play avi and mkv files mostly. Cool device and mac compatible. Hope this helps.

According to Samsung tech support only the MHL port and ARC hdmi port supports HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 and it has built in support for HEVC H.265 as well as a oneconnect port for future upgradeability which Samsung guarantees for 4 yrs. FYI other external 4K devices also need to support HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 to view 4k, if not you get downgraded to 1080p. Oneconnect box not included. As of now you need to make sure when shopping for 4k whether it is a tv, receiver, or any other UHD/4k device that all of the hdmi ports support hdmi 2.0 and hdcp 2.2 or if not at least the ARC port supports it and/or there is an upgrade path. It also needs to support 4k at 24/30/60hz (60 right now is primarily being used by online streaming companies like netflix and amazon) and has HEVC H.265 supoort. Also while most people will tell you that current 10.2 gbps High speed hdmi cables will be good for everything meaning no need to upgrade be aware that current HDMI 10.2gbps high speed cables do not support 4k at 60hz also refered to as 60fps. They max out at 4k@24hz with some managing 4k@30hz. The hdmi.org has raised the the speed to 18gbps for the new hdmi spec. So i recommend getting HDMI cables that is rated at least 18 gbps and supports 4k@60Hz. Don't over pay. Monoprice is just starting to get the 18gbps cables now and others will be too. Keep in mind you only will need new cables just for devices that use 4k@30hz/fps and above which there none right now except for a $299 streaming device that is coming out soon. As of now 4K Blu-ray specs have not been finalized yet so it will be a while before we devices. Cable/sat devices also will take a long while to make the change. So most of your 4k content niw will come from the built in tv apos like netflix and 4k proprietary media players or hard drives with 4k contentent like the samsung one. This tech is really 1 to 2 years at the earliest from fully taking off.

Thanks for the info.Personally, I'm not terribly interested in all of the bells and whistles (like internetTV and wifi capability), but if this can play a good range of video files with varying codecs, it's looking like a good buy. :)

This is just a hard drive with streaming service. So it can handle any resolution. I have been able to stream HD video from this drive with no problems

You can order an adapter easier. Check Amazon for a 800 to 400 They are so cheap and easier to carryI was looking into this myself except I have a few three port external HDs and I just use that set upEasy either way. The cables will recognize... I do it all the time in the above situation.

I have purchased several of these devices, but have not opened any. Dont know if its worth the risk. Purchased a Tripe Mate Elite by HooToo, which is a wireless router that lets you connect an external hard drive (&gt;1TB), do pass thrus, etc. Check this device in Amazon and read reviews. Cost was pretty minimal $40. Then you can have several HD's and used the one you want. Need to check the movie whether MP4, or what, has some limitations.

It has to be a compatible capture device. The key question is what is considered compatible? That I do not know as they refuse to release a compatibility list :( I have ran against the same issue with 1/2 my devices.

I have no experience with HD. I would ask your question on an HD forum. There, I bet you would get an answer. Good luck!

Yes it will play videos from USB. Not sure of the formats, but I think it plays the standards.

Yes it does run latest codecs and container formats but I have seen my (completely stock) freeze and had to be power cycled after and oddly encoded avi which I never found out what The actual video format was. Anyways I use it daily to play videos from all over and it runs great. Works exceptionally well with a plex server and Vimu or just the plex app. Vimu is better for local content in my opinion while plex app is great for ice films and 1 channel like xbmc which I don't believe runs on this box yet.

Huh! Figure! I never expected it to work in such a dated player, but indeed my dozen or so JPG's burned on to a CDRW (just to answer your question) did in fact display on this unit. That's the only format I tested as it's the only one you mentioned.

No I didn't. There are many format options for .avi and .mp4 videos. I used a video converter to try to find what was compatible; now I can't remember, as I lost interest soon after. I only display photo images now, and for that it's fine.You can have multiple 'albums' by placing each on a separate flash card. Using a typical USB multi-format reader with a card in each of 4 or more slots, plus the DP's own slots, you can select collections from quite a few sources.
