1 00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:09,120 It's been a long day, but I'm doing an unboxing anyway. Today, we are unboxing 2 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:11,120 the ASUS O Play, and this is the world's 3 00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:17,119 first network media player that can play back RMVB. Now, uh being the sort of 4 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:20,880 person I am with the color skin that I have, I don't really understand the 5 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:24,880 value of that. But my understanding is according to what people tell me, that 6 00:00:23,039 --> 00:00:29,439 is the best format where you can download Asian soap operas. So, that's 7 00:00:27,119 --> 00:00:35,120 really important to a lot of people. So, let's take this plastic cover off. Now, 8 00:00:32,719 --> 00:00:40,000 this is very similar in terms of the overall functionality to something like 9 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:44,320 the Popcorn Hour or the Western Digital WD TV. Now, let's have a look at what 10 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:49,440 we've got for connectivity. We've got right and left analog audio. We've got 11 00:00:46,480 --> 00:00:53,280 just a composite video. We have digital audio. Then, we've got an HDMI cable. 12 00:00:52,079 --> 00:00:57,840 That's the one that most people are going to be using because this is for HD 13 00:00:55,360 --> 00:01:02,000 content, folks. Then we've got LAN power. And then on the left side of the 14 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:05,360 unit, we've got a USB connection. We've actually got an ESATA connection. That's 15 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:09,760 pretty awesome because that means that you can just throw your media files onto 16 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:13,840 an external hard drive and then you can play them back over ESATA. So there's 17 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:17,360 the top of the unit and then the bottom of it. Now, let's see what else we've 18 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:21,439 got in here in terms of accessories. So it comes in like a nice black packaging. 19 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:26,640 Oh, this is great. It comes with all kinds of stuff. So, here we've got a 20 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:29,439 composite video cable and audio cable. 21 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:34,320 Then we've got a power. This is an AC power cord. So, that'll plug into the 22 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:38,880 back of I'm going to find a Yeah, there we go. So, there's an AC to DC power 23 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:43,680 adapter. So, your whole power setup is going to plug into here, plug into the 24 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:48,560 wall, and then plug into the back of the unit like this. And then we've got a 25 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:52,799 fairly robust looking remote. Actually, I would have expected to see something 26 00:01:50,079 --> 00:01:55,600 along the lines of the WDTV, but we've actually got a fair amount of 27 00:01:54,399 --> 00:02:02,000 functionality here. So, there's your menu navigation. Here's where you're going to uh play, pause, stop, all that 28 00:02:00,399 --> 00:02:05,520 kind of easy stuff. You got volume control, and there's a bunch of other 29 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:09,599 stuff on here. Frankly, I haven't done a lot of research on this thing, so we're 30 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:15,200 just mostly doing an unboxing here. Here's your quick start guide. It actually only comes with a quick start 31 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:18,640 guide. There's no full manual, but it does show you all of the different 32 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:21,599 connectors, all the functionality for the remote here. So, oh, a lot of that 33 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:25,200 other stuff was you can change the subtitle and the language, which is 34 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:29,360 great for the target audience because a lot of those are going to be subtitled. 35 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:34,319 And that was pretty much it. It shows you where to plug it into and then it 36 00:02:31,599 --> 00:02:39,920 goes on to another language. So, that is the ASUS O Play. Here is your users's 37 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:42,879 manual disc. So, I was mistaken. It does come with a user's manual. And then 38 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:49,840 you've got some batteries for the remote. Thanks for checking out my video blog on the ASUS O Play.
