Format support, fast Realtek chip, nice design

Fantec MM-FHDL
Nice looking Realtek 1073 player from established German brand, Fantec. Features a front LCD Display, which is one the features we most look for in a Media Player. It allows you to use it as a music player without turning on the TV.

Has the complete set of AV outputs and is only lacking eSATA on the connectivity side. Otherwise the hardware is the usual Realtek, giving solid format support and performance. Firmware support has not been that good since launch with only one significant release back in November 2009.

The Fantec MM-FHDL is an attractive looking player that is fundamentally sound but lacking so far in firmware updates. The front LCD screen is a rarity and makes it an option for many.
