In relation to my other thread, where I had asked for x264 movies (BRRips) or .mkv, here's the reason I am looking forward to.
We can always watch movies on the PC, no problem. But if you want to layback and watch on your bigger television screen, or LCD screen, with a 5.1 output, how to do it. One option was to connect PC with cables to TV and amplifier. But that was too clumsy.
I found this other option recently (many of you may be knowing it).
WD TV HD Media Player ( WDAVN00 )
This media player is relatively cheap (presently some 129$ or so). I have asked some relative to procure it during the 4th July sale (US), when it might be a little cheap.
The advantage is it supports x264 and .mkv, which is a big advantage. No other hardware player supports that. All standalone DVD players nowadays support xvid, Divx etc, but not yet .mkv
Once I use it, will give my review how it is. Though will be a month before I set my hands on it.
Does anyone here use it? Please let us know your opinions
