HMP5000 HD Media player

Very usefull for my networking movie and media, need more apps in online media

We have had this device for many years now. I have nothing bad to say other then I can't buy a second one! I used it for YouTube but when it stopped being supported I just bought a chromecast (was not a problem when it became unsupported) to be honest it was difficult with YouTube so was not really used for that. I can't find anything that is just a simple media player like this one today...

Yes true. "Has been good" but now is only ordinary player.

I love my media play because I can set up network on it and watch stuff from my PC, plus all the other options of connections. Great device would recommend it.

GOOD FOR MOVIES WITH HIGH GB AND DTS SOUND. MY DOWNLOAD MOVIES COMES WITH DTS DOLBY DIGITAL. SOUND PRODUCED WAS SO AWESOME. PICTURE MUCH DETAIL WITH ADJUSTMENT. BUT YOUTUBE NOT SUPPORTED ANYMORE.

cant play youtube.. any updates on software due to unable to play youtube?

I brought this in 2013 and still it is working ok. it plays almost everything

Good product but no updates. You tube is not supported for this unit any more

I have found it very easy to use, I am yet to find a file it couldn't play. I have tested it only briefly with a high definition movie over the network which played well except for a few brief glitches at the very beginning. It has crashed on me about twice for reasons I am unsure of but returned to work after powering it off and back on, and then hasn't repeated the issues. It will not read EXFat hard drive format. I was unable to format my drive in FAT16 or FAT32 and a friends Mac will only read FAT not NTFS formatted disks which is a little annoying, hopefully they will add support for this in the next software update. (It reads FAT16, FAT32, NTFS) All up it is nice and small and looks ok, works well and is easy to use. I would recommend it to a friend.

I have just purchased this product and have found it easy to use remote is simple small and easy to navigate and having westlink on my tv makes it the more easier that you don't have to use source on remote. I'll comment later on the WiFi part of it as l have not tried it. Picture quality is very clear too.
