What is the Difference between Xtreamer and other mediaplayers ?
The xtreamer was designed built and marketed with one goal in mind :
To be the best solid advanced media player with fast wireless connectivity at afordable price of less than 100 euro.
It was designed and manufactured by people who love their media and enjoy it to the maximum extent possible. We are very much the same geeks as most readers of this post. We simply had enough of buying machines that are too expensive. Why a DVD is sold in your local supermarket for less than 50$ and a descent media player with basic functionalities cost sometime 4 times more.
You can try yourself and if you are not convinced you are more than welcome to return the product for a full unquestionable refund.
The RD team and the designers took the best of all what you may already heard or see in media players market and incorporated it into a very small yet very simple unit that can play your files in a stable environment without too complicated (many times much unnecessary) feature list that no one really use.
Whether you are looking for your first or additional media player for your home or office Xtreamer is promising to deliver what you are looking for :
playing your media files in full HD at 1080 resolution over wireless network featuring the most latest codecs and formats such as FLAC AVCHD FLV & MKV.
Here is several comparison charts we made for you to get the full picture :
Xtreamer vs WDTV
We know Western Digital is a big company with numerous points of sale worldwide. We do believe however that media players is not their core business. As such you can not expect to have a real community around it nor your customer support and end-user exprience can never be personal. Using the WDTV necessitates additional expense of buying HDD. (depends on the capacity it can range from 100-200 additional USD). Xtreamer can work and operate out of the box.
The WDTV is not a HDD enclosure (otherwise how would WD sell their external HDD) . The Xtreamer is doing anything that the WDTV is doing only better. It has the advanatges of playing files from internal HDD (optional), it has full LAN and WIFI (802.11n) connectivity and therefore it is supporting advanced technologies such UPnP . The Xtreamer MKV 1080P support is by far superior to the WDTV. Moreover, The Xtreamer has the advantage of the busy forum and community behind it. It was made by people who like movies and porn very much the same as most media players are. With this goal and target price the unit was designed and is manufactured.
Xtreamer vs PopcornHour (Network Media Tank)
Popcorn hour became in the last few months as a very popular media player as it was based on sigma designs advanced chipset 8635 that was the first in the market to deliver MKV true 1080P functionality. We know It has an impressive list of features and community tweeks. We do believe however that PCH in most cases is too difficult media player to be handled by non technical person. Its design is very basic and it is far from been regarded as a portable device or a device you can proudly present in your living room. Its Wireless connectivity requires you to pay additional money only to get a very unstable USB wirless dongle that has a very limited signal strength and stability. If you are tired of upgrading your machine every other day with the "latest" formware buzz made by some guy at their spare time and seek a solid solution that will play everything that the popcornhour do and that your wife or father will be able to enjoy install and smoothly operate in the long run the Xtreamer is your right solution .
The Xtreamer plays the FLV (Flash Video) format its H.264 latest codecs that popcornhour cannot play. The Xtreamer is subtstantially cheaper, simple to use and does the job without sending you to endless reading course in forums and tutorials.
Xtreamer vs Tvix Tvix was for long time regarded as a very solid machine. It was always pricy and lacked community support and even it was based on sigma designs advanced chipset 8635 that was the first in the market to deliver MKV true 1080P functionality today there should be no reason to pay 4 time more for the same experience. We know It has an impressive list of features and style. We do believe however that in most cases is too difficult media player to be handled by non technical person. Its design is very basic and it is far from been regarded as a portable device or a device you can proudly present in your living room. Its Wireless connectivity requires you to pay additional money only to get a very unstable USB wirless dongle that has a very limited signal strength and stability. The Xtreamer is doing anything that any TVIX media player is doing only better and cheaper. It has the advanatges of playing files from internal HDD (optional), it has full LAN and WIFI (802.11n) connectivity and therefore it is supporting advanced technologies such UPnP . The Xtreamer MKV 1080P support is by far superior to the Tvix. Moreover, The Xtreamer has the advantage of the busy forum and community behind it. It was made by people who like movies and porn very much the same as most media players are. With this goal and target price the unit was designed and is manufactured.
If you are tired of paying so much for your machine and dare to afford yourself more than 1 unit so as to allow your family and best freind to enjoy your web content harvest the Xtreamer should be considered seriously . Take a look at the GUI and its impressive specs sheet of the Xtreamer to be able to ask any TVIX dealer why should I pay so much . We hope you will also find the Xtreamer as the right solution for you .
