Sony SMP-N200 Streaming Media Player with Wi-Fi

Friday, July 13, 2012

This media player is simple and to the point. It immediately recognized my DLNA servers on my computer and on my synology disk station with no problem. Played mkv avi m4v and everything else I could throw at it. The interface is clunky, and not as elegant as AppleTV's, but this is overall a much simpler and versatile device since it uses standard DLNA protocols which apple tv does not. AppleTV requires you to convert your media files to itunes format, and load media into itunes before AppleTV even sees it. With a standard DLNA player like this one, just fire up the server software on your computer, and everything on your computer is on your TV. simple and straight forward, with no media conversion…
This pretty small device does amazing job.My first introduction to the SONY network media players from thr model SMP-N100. Now I've got the new one SMP-N200 and it gives you the same functions and more compact size of the box with nice compact remote.It works fast and streaming all kind of media to my family room TV. With the connection with HDMI gives an excellent picture quality and very nice sound for the home theatre system. I have pretty big library of videos, hoem videos in HD format, thousands of pictures and big audio library - all formats play without any problem.We watch YouTube videos all the time, use different other options, so far there were no problems.I have to say that I'm not…
