Unless satisfied 1

I have the player for a few weeks in use and am satisfied so far. The unit is comfortably small, the casing is made of metal, making a good impression, as well as the remote control, but I actually do not use because I use a wireless mouse. This (any Tevion Mouse) has been recognized by plugging the USB receiver once. An operating noise does not exist, because no fan is installed - which at the same time is the only "defect": the unit is in operation really quite hot. After the player has hung up occasionally after prolonged operation (the case was so hot that I could hardly hinfassen), I have a small frame with a quiet 120mm fans tinkered, which cools the unit from the bottom, since there was no hanger and the player stays cool even after prolonged operation. The fan runs while very slowly and is therefore not to be heard. The service is typical Android, the Hi-media interface is simple and unspectacular, the operating speed is fast. I jokingly times XBMC installed to see whether the operation compared to my Raspberry Pi runs faster - no comparison, smooth and judder-scrolling, no hangers, the mouse pointer moves smoothly. Installing apps from the Play gates functioning properly, also browsing the network works fine - although I generally do not find as comfortable browsing on Android browser as PC. To fast times while watching movies for an actor to google it is enough, but for surfing I sit down he prefers to the PC. I use the device primarily for playing movies from a USB hard drive connected to the router. The plate is found on the ES File Explorer, and so far all the movies included. HD content have been smoothly and without interference reproduced image (I use the MX-Player). A trial basis to the LAN hanged Raspberry-NAS has also been found. For 3D and 4K I can not say anything because my television both can not play. Netflix is ​​running smoothly and as smoothly, and I have not connected the player via WiFi but wired to the router and I hang on a line 50.000. Caution: Max cathedrals does not work as I realized disappointed, but this is not due to Hi-media or to Android, but only to max cathedrals, whose Android app does not allow output via HDMI. The problem seems to be on the net already known for some time. I have not been used other VoD services.

Bottom line, the player works well, and I would buy it again. While tinkering One point deduction for heat generation, a rack of fans is not the problem, but that would have to solve Himedia priori better.
