Yes it will play movies from a external hdd and wifi i do not know. With XBMC you have alot of tv shows and movies. Great box to have...

Yes, since it doesn't access the files directly. You'll need an iPhone, iPod, Mac, etc using AirPlay to stream to it.

Sorry I am not able to answer your question. I use the HD Media Center almost exclusively for audio FLAC files and the SD card from my camera. I can tell it plays AVCHD.

This is just the divice; it does not come with the software; that has to be downloaded for your specific operating system. There is more than one choice for the software, (more that one brand name). It is tricky to work correctly on a MAC for Blu-ray, but DVDs work much better. Almost all software available will play DVD an CD on this drive. Apple does not have a business interest supporting external drives like blu-ray, since most of its software, applications, entertainment, are available through iTunes. very respectfully, Curtthom@cox.net, Frankfurt, Germany

I connect my Ipad and play any file from iPad. I think you need a player because hard drive will not play any file for you.

Wondering if hi res audio (24 bit / 96kHz) can be streamed wirelessly via the Airport Extreme and the WD Live? Does the WD Live come with a Mac (OS X 10.4.11 'Tiger') compatible client? Can I use the WD Live to stream 24/96 audio files stored on my iMac (or networked or local USB HD) without loss of quality? Seems like all these SHOULD work, but nice to get confirmation. I want to use the optical digital output to go into a high end audio DAC. Thanks!

If you have VLC player on your iMac it won't matter. I use my MacBook Pro and just slide the SD card in and voila.

I owned this device for 1 whole day when I found out that I couldn't save playlists on it, but I'm pretty sure there is no Wi-Fi capability. It is more like a portable hard drive that will play videos and music. It connects to a computer for downloading of files. I've owned other Cowon devices and am very impressed with the audio quality, but the smaller ones will store playlists.

I use my external USB drive to download and watch movies. Works great and I have a Macbook Pro.

It is able to read play most any video, image or music file directly from a windows shared directly, including those NTFS drives. Is also DLNA compatible. Love mine.

Hello Martin. The short answer is I don't know. However I don't believe this unit has A hard drive, so there's no down loading involved if this is true. It just plays back the information whether it comes from an ipod, mp3, or a memory stick. It also is equipped with Bluetooth which means you can play music from an Iphone or Android wirelessly. I hope this was helpful.

I have an external USB hard drive connected and it works fine. You can even play back files from the USB drive. I have a 1 TB external drive.

We bought the player for viewing movies from all regions/codes. Although I have Apple products & WiFi in my home, I have never tried using the player with them..........Sorry I could mot help you. The DVD player is great for viewing movies from other countries, which are non-USA format

My Asus is hooked up to my iMac and I have no problems playing movies using just USB power from the bigger of the two USB cords on the pigtail that comes with the unit.I have not tried it with a laptop.
