Old chipset, slow interface

Popcorn Hour A-110
The A-100 was one of the first popular HD Network Media Players. Also known as the generic name for Syabas chipset machines, 'Networked Media Tank' (NMT). A lot of people will still swear by this machine for it's compatibility. The Popcorn Hour A-110 plays a vast quantity of formats and is well supported online. This, along with some of the other Sigma 8635 players, is one of the few Media Players to passthrough all HD Audio formats. No fan so silent in operation. The user interface is slow but highly customisable.

The A-110 has now been superceeded by the technically superior but similarly priced A-200.

The A-110 is probably the best supported Media Player in terms of applications, interfaces, skins, and pretty much anything else. It is also still one of the few to support HD-Audio bitsreaming.
