Xtreamer Media Player & Streamer

We got our hands on another networked media player — the Xtreamer Media Player and Streamer, a small and portable media player.

Unlike the other popular media players out there, the Xtreamer uses the smaller 2.5″ portable HDD which makes for the smaller form factor. You need to buy and install the HDD separately.

There’s not a lot of ports at the back but I think it’s just enough — an HDMI, 2 USB, Composite, USB Host (for WiFi 802.11 N), Ethernet 10/100, and Analog/Digital Audio. The unit can play audio, photo and videos up to 1080p.

The Xtreamer supports the following video file formats: MPEG HD, XVid, DivX, MKV, MP4 and H.264; as well as audio formats: MP3, WMA, AAC, OGG, WAV, FLAC and DTS decoding (including down-mixing).

The unit alone costs about Php6,000+ (Php6.2k in Sulit) but that does not include the HDMI cable, the antenna for WiFi and the internal HDD. The antenna for the WiFi is also important if you want to stream content thru the player without using the wired LAN port.

The device is a perfect fit to those who want to bring their HD content anywhere they go. Just hook it up to your hotel’s HDTV and you have your own selection of movies and TV series, all for free. The player is positioned against the portable WDTV of Western Digital although the latter does not have an internal storage.
