I have a total of 5 Network Multimedia Player (Medion Full HD Player from Aldi, WD TV Life, Netgear Neo TV 500 and the Emtec Movie Cube N200) tested until I landed at Fantec S3600. This is the first player who makes everything that the manufacturer promises and what you would expect so. From the outside it looks very high quality by its Metallgehäude and thus quite heavy. The remote control has already been criticized as bad and I have to agree. She is working properly, not only fits on the valence forth to the device. The S3600 has a Gbit LAN connection and apparently extremely fast chipset. Jerking or any waits - all knows not the player. The NAS and the shared files are detected immediately. The player plays unconverted 1: 1 from DVDs Ripps. Even files with very high bit rate streamed fast and seamless. The picture and sound quality are excellent. The range of functions not huge, but functional. What can a player has, he can. ISO, FLV, etc. etc. no problem. In addition, he has noticed a full-fledged Internet browser. Although I am only at the very beginning to get to know the equipment in every detail - what I've done so far everything went without a manual. It is as simple to operate. I would recommend the FANTEC S3600 fully.
- Today I tried to bring the player to the bucking. Have the network traffic caused as much as I could. Both drives of the NAS were busy with other things rather than just stream. The S3600 streamed smoothly even under these conditions. I must say that the connections are made PC to NAS and NAS Media Player in Gb.
