Fantec TV-FHDS
Attractive looking Realtek 1073 based player from the established German brand, Fantec. Offers the usual Realtek impressive format support and performance in a small shiny box.

On the hardware side, the features are very standard except for the side mounted USB and SD card ports. Which could come in handy. As far as we know there is no DTS downmix support. Firmware updates have been reasonable so far but nothing special. At time of writing the firmware lagged the best Realteks by about a month.

The Fantec TV-FHDS is an attractive little Media Player that is perfectly capable but unexceptional.
