00:00:08.040 --> 00:00:15.400
today I have a media Network media player box to unbox and this is from a

00:00:13.759 --> 00:00:19.840
new brand that most of you probably aren't familiar with but based on what I

00:00:17.880 --> 00:00:24.320
know about the company and the people involved I am I have very high

00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:28.359
expectations for this particular product so let's have a look at what we've got

00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:33.600
on the front here in terms of features so it's HD ready full 1080p okay

00:00:30.759 --> 00:00:39.239
supports hard drives up to 3 terab we have optional uh optional ability to add

00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:45.640
Wireless N okay we've got gigabit LAN USB 3 that's a cool feature supports

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:47.960
Blu-ray disc isos very nice 5.1 and 7.1

00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:52.760
are both supported it supports UPnP as well as DNA we have support for

00:00:50.320 --> 00:01:00.320
subtitles including SRT SMI and SSA we can download files from HTTP SMB

00:00:57.120 --> 00:01:02.519
or FTP it says allinone here what I

00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:08.520
think they mean is in terms of file format so you got TS MKV mov M Peg all

00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:14.159
of that on there it has a browser it supports web TV it supports bit torrent

00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:16.240
and supports RSS so this is the AOS from

00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:21.040
pivos let's go around to the back it supports USB wired or wireless keyboard

00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:24.960
and mouse here's a bunch of the services that can be used with this little unit

00:01:23.479 --> 00:01:30.840

Bluetooth in this context bit torrent

00:02:20.160 --> 00:02:25.800
files all right let's open up the box

00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:30.480
and have a look at this guy like I said I mean the boxes for these Network media

00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:34.640
players can say whatever they want but at the end of the day it's going to come

00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:38.840
down to the software and like I said from what I know about the team behind

00:02:36.200 --> 00:02:43.760
this one I have very high expectations for this

00:02:40.480 --> 00:02:46.840
box all right so let's pull out the unit

00:02:43.760 --> 00:02:49.319
itself and put it aside for now and then

00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:55.440
I'm going to go ahead and have a look in here at what we've got in terms of

00:02:52.200 --> 00:02:57.920
accessories so first thing we find is a

00:02:55.440 --> 00:03:01.239
very large remote so unlike some of the barebones remote you see with these

00:02:59.440 --> 00:03:05.959
Network media players this guy's got all of the numbers we could want uh you can

00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:10.319
well it's got like record button and all this stuff here going on okay so I'm not

00:03:08.480 --> 00:03:13.440
going to go too much in detail about which buttons are on there but you can

00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:17.280
feel free to sort of here want to get in close and then just do like a pans shot

00:03:15.239 --> 00:03:21.480
of everything that's on the controller okay runs off ablea batteries pardon me

00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:26.080
AAA batteries and it comes with a couple AAA batteries for you to use next we

00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:30.200
have a power brick pretty standard looking power brick nothing out of the

00:03:27.519 --> 00:03:33.560
ordinary here and a power cable for the power brick plugs into the brick and

00:03:32.239 --> 00:03:40.760
Powers the Box finally we have a USB 3

00:03:37.879 --> 00:03:47.879
cable and that oh okay that's handy so the usb3 cable presumably plugs into the

00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:49.799
AOS unit itself and allows you to yeah

00:03:47.879 --> 00:03:53.120
to uh plug into your PC and transfer files to the internal hard drive that

00:03:51.239 --> 00:03:57.439
you install very nice very nice feature so you'll be able to transfer things

00:03:54.959 --> 00:04:02.040
much faster than competing players we've also got a composite cable which I would

00:04:00.480 --> 00:04:06.840
definitely not recommend you use we've got a couple hard drive screws but yeah

00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:11.120
you should definitely use um HDMI with a unit like this it is HD ready after all

00:04:09.519 --> 00:04:15.760
here's your user guide including how to install a hard drive connect things to

00:04:13.040 --> 00:04:18.959
it stream via UPnP all that good stuff so hopefully you can see everything

00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:25.080
that's in there all right and next we have a quick guide get acquainted what's

00:04:22.400 --> 00:04:30.840
in the box how to connect it to various things including your router your NZ all

00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:34.160
that good stuff tips tips and more more

00:04:30.840 --> 00:04:37.080
tips and let's have a look at the unit

00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:42.680
itself so the front of it is a very sort of clean slick professional

00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:47.000
look there we go it's glossy on the front and then it's got kind of a

00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:52.240
brushed aluminum brushed Metal finish on the sides here it's got a little readout

00:04:49.280 --> 00:04:57.400
for time little re readout indicating that it's playing back there's a USB

00:04:54.080 --> 00:04:59.880
connection there's your IR receiver for

00:04:57.400 --> 00:05:05.240
the remote on the top you can see we got a brushed Metal finish there as well

00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:07.240
very professional look for uh AV

00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:10.880
Equipment look at that look how easy it is to install a hard drive oh that's

00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:14.400
cool so all you do is you throw the drive in with these two pegs in the

00:05:12.759 --> 00:05:19.759
right spots and then you put one screw here and one screw

00:05:17.440 --> 00:05:23.360
here and Slide the oops you got to be right side up to do that and Slide the

00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:30.440
whole thing back into the unit look at that very easy

00:05:27.880 --> 00:05:35.840
cool I think I did it wrong yep after all that I did it wrong

00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:39.720
again there we go that's how it goes back in nice and flush this time okay so

00:05:38.280 --> 00:05:45.360
moving along to the other side not a whole lot going on there we got rubberized feet on the bottom once again

00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:50.560
very nice brushed finish overall to the unit there's a USB 2.0 Port didn't see

00:05:48.280 --> 00:05:54.440
that before so that you can just have this at the front of your media center

00:05:52.120 --> 00:05:58.080
you can go ahead and plug a USB stick in there or whatever the case may be and

00:05:55.759 --> 00:06:02.759
you can easily play off a USB stick now in terms of output options You' actually

00:06:00.039 --> 00:06:06.639
got a very wide variety on this unit because of it's slightly larger size

00:06:04.880 --> 00:06:11.000
than some competing solutions that gives you a little bit more room on the back

00:06:08.919 --> 00:06:17.759
for different options so you've actually got component composite coax and optical

00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:22.599
digital audio out Lan here this is gigabit Lan mind you two more USB 2.0

00:06:20.919 --> 00:06:28.520
ports so that was the one on the front and two on the back HDMI out USB 3 for

00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:33.639
transferring files to the internal hard drive that you can opt install finally

00:06:31.039 --> 00:06:37.919
power in and an onoff switch it does have a fan and hopefully I'll have a

00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:43.639
chance to let you guys know if it gets loud but I wouldn't really expect it to

00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:45.639
there's not uh not too much in here that

00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:50.680
you'd need to have like a tornado style fan going on in order to get the full

00:06:48.599 --> 00:06:54.000
functionality out of the machine so actually give me one moment guys so I

00:06:52.400 --> 00:06:58.919
missed one other handy feature there's actually an SDHC reader on the other

00:06:56.479 --> 00:07:02.479
side of the unit opposite the USB 2.0 Port so if you take a video on your

00:07:00.479 --> 00:07:05.240
camera for example and you want to show it to everyone you go ahead you take

00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:09.840
your video you pop it out you throw it in there and now you can play it back so

00:07:07.639 --> 00:07:14.199
with the included HTML 5 browser you can access all the best content on the

00:07:11.440 --> 00:07:18.280
internet with your network share capabilities you can actually access all

00:07:16.440 --> 00:07:22.759
the content that's on here from elsewhere including your other computers

00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:25.960
at home with the file with the network browsing on the unit itself you can

00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:29.560
access files that are Elsewhere on your network and finally you can access files

00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:34.520
that are stored on the internal hard drive so it's a very fully featured

00:07:32.080 --> 00:07:38.039
Network media player and I hope to have some time to check it out in the near

00:07:36.039 --> 00:07:42.160
