Question: Can you play a simple store bought DVD movie on this media player?
Document: This product is basically a Sony Bluray player without the Bluray DVD drive built-in. It has tons of online media services built-in and has Hulu+ as "coming soon", which is really awesome when it really arrives. However, if you are looking for a media player replacement to play your downloaded MKV videos, this isn't really the best choice on the market. It lacks most of the small, yet specialized features that others have such as video fast skip, resume... etc.
I purchased the Sony media player for my second TV, and I had already installed a Roku 2 for my main TV. Comparing the two, the Sony was was not near as easy to set up and the activating codes were not well laid out for simple installation and activation. The Roku was much more easier. Also the layout main screen is not at all as clear as the Roku, and movie titles are hard to see.
OK. I was all excited to buy & install my Sony SMP N100 Media Player - I could stream netflix to my home theater!I was surprised to find that the printed literature that came with the player was SO CURSORY - almost no detail provided. Therefore, I figured that the set-up MUST be simple. I was right - the basic set-up was simple. It all worked as advertised.Until I streamed my first NetFlix video movie. About 18 minutes in, the screen picture froze.
You can play MP3 by using windows 7 PlayTo (but this isnt very convenient). However, it cannot access windows file shares over a network, in fact it cannot even find most computers. It does not seem to have the ability to store a username and password, so cannot log on to any network computer requiring authentication. It cannot play MKV, MP3 or JPG files even when they are presented via a dedicated media server (such as Twonky Server).
It works. Setup was easy. Browsing is awful. I am novice user of media players, so I was surprised by how much it is worse than PC in finding content even on predetermined sites. I bought Sony SMP N-100 to use it with a TV for treadmill. I was very disappointed by inability of the player to resume or even to rewind a movie streamed from the Web from sites like Hulu Plus and Netflix (but again: I cannot compare it to other media players).
I have an older 65in TV, but does have an HDMI port for 1080 picture quality but cant connect to netflix or internet type of of content and the Sony media will convert your TV to Smart TV not only that but you can plug in your external harddrive to play all your movies through the media on to your TV what a great feature. I have tones of DVD converted in to an external drive so this media is perfect for that.
I bought this player to stream netflix and to play media from USB. It has worked very well for that.It's small and very easy to set up to the wireless network so no complaints. I have not tried the other functions such as streaming from a media server, etc, so I can't comment on those functions. I would definitely purchase this again!
aiya!! !Well, since it failed on everything I wanted to do, I returned it and bought a Western Digital WDTV Live Plus. That Media Player could do just about everything I wanted it to do. It couldn't play 1 of the media files I threw at it, but DLNA Software with a transcoder took care of that. Also, no Wireless N was a drawback.Anyways, don't recommend the Sony Media Player at all!! !
While it looks nice and has some very attractive features, it just does not deliver what a Network Media Player should - the ability to play media from a network.I currently own two Patriot Box Offices and they work great, but the user interfaces are not up to par for the 21st century. So, I bought a WD TV Live Plus, which also was able to play media over the network, but had some other issues. In came the Sony SMP-N100.
What can I say?... I actually picked this up at a retail store because I had a lot of gift cards I needed to use. From the box, the player looks very very promising...but it is actually pretty sad. It seems to show a lot of features that would make it better than other media players, but it's a very deceptive box.
Answer: No, it is a simple "black box" that provides streaming from sources such as Netflix, Amazon on demand or Hulu plus. It does have USB connectivity as well but no player per se.
