Sumvision Cyclone Micro Media Player

Photo

This is a very clever little bit of kit. I've got it to play film, photos & mp3's.

About the size of a pack of cards, it's a USB 2.0 or Memory card reading 1080p up-scaling HDMI media player.

So with an SD/MS/MMC/SDHC card or thumbdrive loaded with films.. or even an external hard drive plugged in, I can play my content on any TV via either a HDMI or composite port.

And for the bargain price of £17 (shop around) It even has a remote control.

Is it any good..?

Not sure yet, I've only just opened the box.

Very low price - Please report back on quality.

No wonder Google have taken Android into this market. yes devices will need more internal components to run GoogleTV but there is a market for an open source operating system for boxes like this and Google have swooped!

Hi @Ilicco I will check it out but i feel it may be the same file system and same issue. Perhaps the firmware is up-datable.
