Just found occasionally that Chronos has a new 2.5" MP2200 which is capable to play mkv files. It seems to be suitable for 2.5" internal HDD. Strange is that Google seems totally not to be aware of this unit. http://www.chronos.com.tw/Product/D/MP2200/MP2200.htm I thinks that mkv capable hdd Media players are still very rare. Any more known facts about this device or are there some other popular mkv products? From Chronos site: MPEG-1 MPG/MPEG/DAT up to 1080p MPEG-2 MPG/MPEG/VOB/ISO/IFO/TS/ TP/M2TS up to 1080p MPEG-4 MP4/AVI/MOV support up to 1080p DivX/XviD 3/4/5/6 AVI/MKV support up to 1080p H.264, AVC TS/AVI/MKV/MOV/M2TS support up to 1080p WMV9 WMV support up to 1080p Real Video 8/9/10 RM/RMVB support up to 720p FLV FLV support up to 1080p
Hi have you looked at the tivx range of HDD media players. Thay can be a little price but thay are extreamly good at what thay do iv had the m-4100sh for about a year. It will run just about anything i can chuck at it have a look there is quite a range. http://www.tvix.co.kr/ENG/products/HDM6500.aspx thay can be purchased from the site below http://www.pixmania.co.uk the players can take up to a 2TB 3.5HDD and will run all the fallowing formats with ease MKV, AVI, VOB ASF, WMV MPEG1/2/4 Elementary (M1V, M2V, M4V) MPEG1/2 PS: M2P, MPG MPEG2 Transport Stream: TS, TP, TRP, M2T, M2TS, MTS ISO, IFO AVC HD MOV(H.264), MP4, MOD, TOD, and all the fallowing codecs XVID SD/HD MPEG 1 MPEG-2 (MP@HL) MPEG-4.2 (ASP@L5, 720p, 1-point GMC) WMV9 (MP@HL), H.264 (BP@L3, MP@4.0, HP@4.0) VC-1 (MP@HL, AP@L3) plus the fact that it runs with the maximum resolution of 1920-1080p with HDMI 1.3 makes it a good peace of kit to use. Put it this way iv never had any problems with mine and im running H.264 files of about 11GB at times with no loss in picture quality or audio but have a look and see what you think! Reznor196
