ASUS O!Play LIVE HD Media Player Review
Manufacturer: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Full Disclosure: The product sample used in this article has been provided by ASUS. If you're like me, over the years you've collected a huge digital library full of music, pictures, and movies onto your computer. Occasionally, I might watch a video from off my laptop or listen to a song while working at the desktop, but high-definition movies and music are really best enjoyed on a home theater system with larger screen and powerful speakers. The ASUS O!Play LIVE HD Media Player makes this transition easy, accepting every modern media format over local storage and network connections. Watching broadcast television and DVD/BD movies have been replaced with streaming Internet content and downloaded multimedia files, especially for college aged viewers who own a smartphone or tablet device. In this article Benchmark Reviews tests the ASUS O!Play LIVE HD Media Player, and we evaluate how well it performs our tasks. The ASUS O!Play LIVE media player is designed to deliver large-scale entertainment in a small package, and indeed it does. Perfect for the college dorm or start-up entertainment center, expect O!Play LIVE to play back practically every modern digital media file format without frame loss or stutter. If you're not big on downloading files for playback, ASUS O!Play LIVE can also receive streaming Internet TV shows directly from several sources. Join me as I test the ASUS O!Play LIVE using several high bit-rate video files and streaming multimedia content. Stores have stocked the ASUS O!Play LIVE HD Media Player for one year already, but the ASUS O!Play series has been around for over three years. O!Play LIVE replaces the O!Play AIR HDP-R3 media player, and adds improved multimedia compatibility with more streaming media/content distribution features.
