It can't read the ISOs, but it will read the contents of the ISO just fine; just extract the ISO (WinRAR can do it) and it'll play the VOB files happily.

The lack of wireless is a bummer, but you can build/buy a wireless bridge for $30-40 USD.

Other than that, it meets all other the requirements you listed.]]>Jun 3rd 2009 12:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 4:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 6:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 8:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/
i've seen the WD HD TV, and definitely looks interesting, but without built in network its nearly useless. i've got TVs in the basement, main floor and in the bedroom. all media stays on a computer and gets streamed. what would i do with the WD? consistently make copies of my media so every tv can have its own copy?]]>Jun 3rd 2009 8:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 9:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 9:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 11:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 4th 2009 1:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Lo and Behold the Big Japanese CE producers have still not heard of the Free container MKV, and they properly never will until its too late for them, ]]>Jun 3rd 2009 4:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 4:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 5:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 5:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.egreathd.com/]]>Jun 12th 2009 12:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 5:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 7:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 8:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/
So for people who enjoy anime, the key question is how advanced the Asus devices' claimed SSA support is. If it's a complete implementation, this thing will blow the Popcorn Hour out of the water.]]>Jun 3rd 2009 12:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 3rd 2009 9:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 6th 2009 4:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/Jun 22nd 2009 6:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/03/asus-o-play-hdp-r1-media-player-wont-likely-see-your-o-face/
I got my Playon!HD http://www.playonhd.com a couple of weeks ago. For me there's no reason to wait for Asus since I want one with an internal hard disk. This Asus model did make me start my search again. I've now got a 1TB built-in and it plays perfectly for me - ISOs, MKVs, TS, M2TS etc. The Playon!HD is playing more files (some difficult MKV) than my friend's popcornhour. Also boots up faster, loads photos (much) faster. I think the current bunch of Sigma+NMT solution is just getting a bit old. Technology does age faster than dogs. I'm having a good time teasing my friend hehe. ]]>Jul 3rd 2009 10:16AM
