Best 4K media player is the HiMedia H8.

Why is that? Care to share your personal experience?
I have both the NVidia Shield TV and HiMedia H8, for me the NVidia is better... Maybe you could give us some insights...

Agree!!!

Please give some detailed review on the H8, it will be a great help for those who are planning to buy media players especially me, im choosing between VTEN, H8 and Shield

This I want to read.

I personally find the Q10 better than the Q8.
My personal take is that the Q10 has had more time for software development resulting to better PQ and SQ than the Q8. This is also a observation of most in the Futeko forum.

Please elaborate your finding that Q8 is the best at this time.

My Med8er1000x3D died yesterday.

We returned from Christmas vacation...and i turned on my AVR and my line conditioner to power up my TV and HT system.

After 10 seconds, i saw white smoke coming out of my Med8er...it was as if it was vaping.

Immediately unplugged it...and i am assuming it is dead and barbecued.

Recommend a replacement please...although, i do like the NVidia. Can get it a little bit cheaper in Amazon.

For me the next best thing is the Popcorn Hour VTEN @ 9,500 and HiMedia H8 @ 7,500... Both available locally.

HiMedia H8 has mixed reviews...so, i'm not considering that.

Have to research on the VTen...

I have the HiMedia H8 and after updating to the latest firmware, everything is smooth and playback is okay...
If you are in the US you could check also the HiMedia Q10

nbc · « **Reply #38 on:** Dec 28, 2015 at 06:40 PM »

I will be going to the US this January... and i have Amazon Prime so it is easy to buy online. Will check out the Q10 as well. Thanks.

Hi, isnt the H8 a higher model as compared to the Q10?

The H8 is newer model but in terms of specs and PQ the Q10 is better.

A little OT, im currently playing my 4k files using my tv's built in player. And my tv is connected to my receiver via ARC. Is this ok or am I missing a lot and will there be an improvement if I get a dedicated 4k player? Thanks guys.

Is there like a YAMJ program the Android media players that can retrieve and use posters for the movies?

I've decided that I would get the Nvidia Shield Pro... plus the remote... plus the stand.

From what I've read, it just has so much potential.

Torn between q8 and h8. Now thinking of the shield

All I want is something that can play all types of files and I mean all. Plus it has to have network capabilities so I can use Netflix. I use my smart 4k TV usb to play files and so far it does play mkvs but it choses the 4k it wants to play. It doesn't have Netflix though so I use my ps3 to stream. I want an all in one device. A good ui will be great. It's OK even it doesn't have option for internal hard disk.

Must: plays all files (4k 30 and 60 fps) mkvs iso. and all. Internet capable so I can install Netflix. Good user interface. Can accept external hard drive up to 2 tb

What is the best option for me

i'm also eyeing the nvidia shield for the simple reason of support from nvidia, google, and community developers.

MX 3 can do 4K allegedly. Wifi 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz, bluetooth, OTG, SD card slot, Optical out, LAN, HDMI, AV out and only costs 2.8k in Lazada. Can install from Google Play. Basically a smartphone without phone signal.

Got the vten instead of the shield. No need for game streaming. A little disappointed with the remote though no big deal.

No fireworks coming from a med1000x3d. Im just after the 4k and the stability of pch. I can see some improvements in pq compared sa mede8er.

Video scraping is ok and got my videowall up and running after a day. I have to manually rename my 3d files so it will play automatically.

Still checking how to scrap titles for my music collection as it scrapped album fanart wrong. Renaming would solve though.

I was about to get the H8 but it was demoed in a 32 in 720p tv. H8 is smooth though probably because of its oct core procie.
