- DTS downmix: DTS soundtracks are now also converted to stereo, if no suitable amplifier is available.
- 23.976 fps: This model can play movies with 23.976 fps correctly and smoothly
- Format profile [email protected] and a Reframe rate> 5 function properly (max. 12Reframes tested).
- File Management: It is now possible to delete files directly from a integrietes menu, copy or move to.
What else would be desirable:
- Automatic frame rate detection. Unfortunately, this still does not work and must be changed manually, depending on the file.
Conclusion:
Technically there seems to be no difference to the WDTV Live. Who does not need a network interface and no YUV connection, can access safely, otherwise the live is the better alternative.
Visually there is no difference to its predecessor and therefore both devices are also difficult to distinguish from each other. Only on the basis of the additional designation WDBABG0000NBK this is discernible.
For the price currently offering this player mE the best price / performance ratio and plays so far from everything.
For music fans, just some information, which is not recommended, the player continues to be for managing a large music collection, there are certainly better options.
