Title: Why do you need an AC Ryan if you have a Smart TV and NAS?
Post by: lampayatot on Sep 06, 2015 at 09:55 PM: Guys,

Sorry, newbie sa latest technology?

Why do you need an AC Ryan if you have a Smart TV and/or NAS?

Makakapag play din naman ng movies ung smart tv db? or kahit yata mga HD TVs can?

Honest question lang po..

TIA sa magpapaliwanag..

Cheers!

Mali pala location ng question ko.. sorry MODs... di ko na mailipat eh...

The function of the tv and the built in player are located in the same circuit board. It happened to me so im not taking chances on my other tvs anymore. Lahat may sarili media player na.

so if ever, mas ok i-prioritize ung NAS compared to media player? kasi NAS like qnap has the same capability naman di ba?

If I were you why don't you go the HTPC route. Medyo mahal kasi yung mga branded na NAS and its meant for storage so hardware specs was not designed for playback purposes and limited ang HDD mo while a decent ATX pc motherboard can accommodate up to 8 HDDs. Just a suggestion.

Yes sir I think it's possible na via HDMI.

Post by: CoolTOYZPH on Sep 11, 2015 at 12:20 AM: How does that work Sir?
Source Drive -> USB -> Smart TV -> HDMI -> AVR = 5.1/7.1?

Yes sir. I'll be honest i haven't had any actual experience pero yan yun mga usual setup ngayon. One HDMI does the job for communication for the TV and receiver. Let's wait for others to chime in if they can confirm it. Though minsan there are also handshake issues.

AFAIK, ARC sir ang tawag. Audio Return Channel. Hindi ko lang sure kung kaya ang HD audio.

yes Sir,kala ko dati sira yung AV or TV ko coz ayaw gumana ng ARC, but when i changed HDMI cable gumana na, then I found out yung unang HDMI na gamit ko is v1.3 i think tapos yung pinalit ko v1.4 ata na binili ko sa data blitz
