I finally got my hands on the O!Play just to be disappointed again. True, it does play back DVD Menus and idx/sub subtitles properly and even completely turns off my attached WD passport drive including LED, something WD seems to be incapable of doing with their WD TV. However, it’s design is a bit too clunky for taking it with you on a video night over at friends.
O!Play vs WDTV: can you say clunky?
Judging from the looks of the (pretty slow) GUI, it uses a similar chip to Antarius and Auvisio and although it’s possible to turn off the annoying video preview, because of the empty preview window
file names still cannot use the whole width of the screen.
That’s something the Xtreamer apparently is capable of, I really need to get me one of those. Next!
Thanks for the review it was very helpful.
