Thanks to the Android interface, this is not only a media player but also Internet PC.
The TizzBird can also be used with commercially available radio mouse / keyboards and ... Does it work, the mouse pointer can be precisely controlled. Not like many other Android devices of this kind, where the mouse makes everything possible. The longer tapping as you are used to it from the touch screen is done here with holding down the left mouse button. There is no need to buy the TizzBird keyboard, a commercially available wireless keyboard with touchpad, mouse cursor or trackball just fine. Returns usually but genausovie as TizzBird keyboard.
In fact, he plays most everything from, should it nevertheless times give a format that he does not play, other Android media player like VLC or MX player can be used.
DVD / BluRay backups (ISO / folder) can play (as long as there is no copy protection). The language is the one has defined under Settings. The menus can be easily controlled using the supplied remote.
Angry Birds can be the way to play without any problems using the mouse.
The app store of Tizzbird can actually expand by SD (HC) card, not like many other Android devices with internal flash memory in which apps can be installed on the device or the internal flash memory, such as in the Pearl Tablet Touchlet X7G.
Any apps can be installed on external USB drives (not tried).
The Tizzbird has to operate 3 USB Anschlüssel for external devices and another to him as an external hard drive. One of the USB Anschlüssel on the side is required on the label for the keyboard / mouse, if these also to the other two ports I Will not tried.
The best part is that the TizzBird a 1Gbit network connection has, with which it is possible without problems High-resolution HDTV movies (1080p) from a Media Server (SAMBA) of play without the jerky ...
As a (starter) surface either Android or TizzBird interface can be selected. The former is particularly suitable when the TizzBird is used not only as a media player, so you can at the various (desktops) Pages Create shortcuts to the apps.
Disadvantages and negative:
Unfortunately, the TizzBird player (software) plays no subtitles included in video container from how it is for example possible with MP4, MKV and AVI. I'm not talking about in the video subtitles rimmed but own subtitle track !!! Subtitles in separate files, or from DVD / BluRay backups (ISO / folder) are on the other hand played.
Only four (4) to network shares added / used as a data source. An assignment only the server is not possible.
Digital Copy files may not play because of the copy by the way!
Notes:
To download firmware updates / install is needed a USB drive!
Whether streams can be played from a local DLNA / UPnP server or external server I have not tested.
The TizzBird has been suspended only once when loading the file list from the media server, this was, however, the fact that the Samba service the server had adopted.
My Apacer Al 460 or my Ferguson Ariva 110HD (Both FullHD Network Media Player) hang at this point much more often.
