TVIX-HD S1 Slim with Screwless Hard Drive Bay and eSATA

Reliable, solid very custom-able streamer.

Perform as it should, can also stream content strait from PC, via Net-share software supplied with the product.

Good web site and lot's of support for this product. Something that is very important, and lack with other streamers.

TVIX-HD S1 Slim with Screwless Hard Drive Bay and eSATA

I just purchased this media player and am very happy with it. This is my first media player so I'm far from being an expert on this type of products. What I can tell about this unit is the following:

Good:

Handles media files flawlessly (avi, mov, jpg, etc)

Has a simple, effective user interface

Remote is good and with plenty of functions

Firmware updates are easy to perform

Available internet channels, web remote don't use either of this but did test the internet channel functionality

1080p output

The negatives so far (these are minor in my point of view, but may be of consideration to others):

I haven't yet been able to set up the wireless functionality, works fine with a wired network connection, appears to be a common issue as per other users I will contact the manufacturer for support.

Cover art for some media files is only usable on the last folder icon, not on "upper" levels of file folder structure when a tree structure is used for sorting out media content on the storage device (internal HDD [not included] or external HDD)

Have read comments on forums stating that eSATA connection is slow haven't tested it yet...

Cannot use for Netflix (hence my disappointment with the wireless connection issue)

I am planning to use this to take content with me when I travel plus obviously to store and play media at home. This unit has so many other features that I have yet to explore and try but it is serving its main purpose excellently (media player), while working ok for other uses as advertised (wireless access)

I have tried a few different media players, and this is the best, and easiest one I have had. very simple set up, basicly plug and play. I preloaded my hard drive with my media, plugged it into the player and bingo, there everythiing was. nothing else needed. I LOVE this, going to be getting a second one for my livingroom, this one is in my bedroom.
