Unfortunately, I'm a little disappointed for the money. The surface looks like for me, accustomed to LG Smart from.
However, this is a little sluggish and optically not so appealing as the TV. Nevertheless, you will find everything you look so.
Outwardly, he seems naturally quite simple (black, piano black finish, plastic) connectors are few and far between (HDMI, optical output and LAN), but nowadays you need the barely when current (my AV Reveicer is 10 years old and can all very good) hardware has.
DTS comes anyway via HDMI through the TV to the AV receiver to :)
Next go back "in" device.
Shortly registered with Netflix and Amazon, play, everything works without problems. Play from the network as well. Here, however, with the usual weaknesses of DLNA. Nevertheless, properly and without jerking over WLAN. how it looks in the longer term, I can not say. Did not want a whole movie to see;)
Even for Blu-Ray playback. Could the Rapid detect any weaknesses.
Have courageously after the Hobbit - Desolation of Smaug (3D) resorted, inserted ...
Wait ...
Still...
Funny, nothing happens. Player does not respond.
Pull out the plug then helped by a good 5 minute wait, if not yet something comes or he reacts.
Then came the front no longer have, however, no further testing discs more.
Time from insertion to the menu I feel as normal. Betriebsgeräuscht nice and quiet.
Who hears what that should look no silent films or keep breathing :)
3D playback without problems, which is probably due to the TV.
The player anyway plays without hesitation what you give him.
As I said, who does not have a Smart TV, for that is certainly a good choice. If a network drive is available and can be dispensed with the lack of a USB port, all good.
However, I have decided for myself, and my old men that he was not in the "concept" fit and send him back.
