OK

Hope i have posted to the right part of forum, If not i apoligies
Ive been looking round for a media player that can play my collections of videos/dvd's and music i have stored,i have ripped to my wireless nas drive i have attached on my router (bufflonas drive 4tb DLNA certified linkstation) but im soo confused on what media player will work, i know the ps3 and xbox360 will work around the house but i just bought a new sony brava 50 plasma tv in a seperate room which i would like to find some sort of media player to connect up( no ps3 or xbox360 to it)

anyone got experience or ideas of anything that will work with my network attached drives to stream to my television my movies and music, im just confused on the stuff thats out there that will work

cheers,

I have the Asus O Play R1 and the WD TV media players. Both are good but I prefer the Asus as it has a full size remote control plus shuffle function for music files. I do find that not all video files will play (on either player) so you will get the occasional misfire. I plug the media player into the tv and my hard drives / usb drives into the media player. I don't link the media player to my pc / internet. For the money (say £80) they're nice gadgets.
