I thought I had read some time ago that Sony was going to One box plays everything, and its diminutive size makes it visually unintrusive, especially when compared to a laptop.Īt the flop-house end of the hi-fi market. IMHO this Sony is excellent value for money. This box also has apps for a host of external services, including Netflix, YouTube, and even the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. Besides, hard disk storage is cheap these days. You could use a metadata editor to stick numbers in, e.g.īut who has the time or the patience to do this? Especially as I read that DLNA is on the way out. So what you're only too likely to hear is:

I do have a DLNA server as part of my JRiver Media Center app, and while this is good for playing MP4 videos, it's fairly useless for classical music audio files because its playing order doesn't use track numbering, but the title metadata the record company gave it, and in alphabetical order. The box can network with other boxes via Wifi but only through a DLNA server. If your home network uses cables, there's an LAN cable input socket for that also. The USB input is coping perfectly well with a 2Tb external hard drive with over 1.1 Mb of data in MP4 and AAC codecs. It has an audio coaxial output at the back, now linked to my faithful Denon stereo receiver. It wasn't until I got the thing home that I discovered that this box not only plays physical discs and video files, but also AAC, MPEG and even FLAC audio.

Needing a spare-room BluRay player I bought the Sony BDP-S3500 at a local discount joint for AUD$106 (normally AUD$128).
