The usual solid Realtek performance
No DTS downmix

MediaNow MNP-101
Australian Realtek 1073 player. Essentially the same as the Astone and other Realtek 1073 players, so good performance and format support. The one standout feature is the front mounted USB ports. In some setups this will make a big positive difference to usuability. The MediaNow is receiving regular firmware updates from Realtek as with several other players. DTS downmix is not supported.
