Media streamers

I have tried many and my personal favorite is xbmc on the pc, but for set top for the price I have to go with WD Live Plus, it can play almost all the formats even ISO, handles full 1080p wirelessly ( w/ good connection ).

use serviio with xmbc for local and subsonic for remote streaming - can't fault either at the moment!

WD Live for me too. Streams really well, no lags.

raspberrypi with xbian, works well most of the time, it quite stable now, but hopefully should improve now broadcom has released source code for the graphics chip.

Raspberry Pi with OpenElec/XBMC streaming over Ethernet this side. Added an IR controller so I can use my old Logitech Harmony and it works a treat

I Have a mede8er 800x3d it runs the same firmware as the 600. A very nice player and even plays MVC 3D ripped with make MKV.

Anything with a Realtek 1186 Chip will play almost anything except full BR Menus. It will play 3D BR ISO but without the menu. Some older players support full menu but they dont have full 3D, most of these will be based on the Sigma chip range.

The main chips used and their functionality can be found here:
