Got one today. Same channel line-up as the Mahiwagang Black Box here at the office except the ABS-CBN encrypted channels cannot be viewed. Used only the rca cable but quality is the same. Tried playing media files in my 1TB hdd and it did. Will try the hdmi connection at home. Btw maliit lang yung unit parang 2 kahang philip na pinagtabi.

Subukan ko pag-uwi pero mukha namang promising kung di mo mamiss yung ABS-CBN exclusive channels. Try ko din yung recording function nya.

Which file formats can it play? Kaya MP4 at MKV?

coastal · « **Reply #5 on:** Mar 06, 2015 at 02:18 PM »

Initially tried both and it played them without hitch. Will try if it can read hdds larger that 1TB and other files as well. It says on the specs that it can decode both Dolby and DTS but will check later.

meron bang RF in/out yung HDTV Plus?

coastal · « **Reply #7 on:** Mar 06, 2015 at 02:24 PM »

Negative. Antenna input lang.

meron pala sa waltermart muñoz, sana mas malinaw nga pag hdmi>TV

Tingnan ko pag-uwi kasi depende rin sa masasagap na signal sa QC. Pero siyempre malaking bonus na yung media player capability nito at yung recording function. Ang tanong lang anong magandang i-record na local broadcast he he he.

PBA lang siguro.

coastal · « **Reply #20 on:** Mar 06, 2015 at 03:27 PM »

Btw maiksi lang yung coax cable (parang 3m lang) na kasama nung unit kaya may free coupler for extension. Ginamit ko dito sa office yung sa mahiwagang blackbox for channel scanning.

Nice. Thanks! Talo na niya yung Cybertecbox, sabi dun sa YouTube infomercial ng Cybertecbox - MP4 only, if you play mkv, walang audio.

Looks like a good buy.

this would be good if mas malinaw sa hdmi...waiting for your feedback sir.

I've already tried the hdmi connection but for the media player only. Di kasi nakakabit pa yung antenna sa labas at gabi na he he he. So eto lang muna ang notes ko for the media player function:

Pros
1. Read the powered 2 and 3 TB hdds.
2. Read mp4 and mkv files with audio.
3. Read some flv files not all.

Cons
1. Recognized my 2 2TB portable hdds but will not read the files. Di siguro kaya i-power nung usb port.
2. If may default subtitle yung file it will display it but in a gray box (bad trip). There's no way to turn off the subtitles or change it to other subtitle files (mas lalong bad trip).
3. Seems to not support DTS contrary to what is indicated in the box (bad trip na naman!)

Understandable naman that this is not a full-fledged media player so okay pa rin unless you're expecting more then you'll probably be disappointed.
