If you are looking for a leaner media player solution -- and if something like the Egreat R200-II is a bit above where you are aiming -- the same manufacturer produces a stripped down, smaller device that delivers much the same in terms of capability. The Egreat R6A-II is a compact media player that will take care of most of your media player needs quite nicely.
Unlike its bigger brother, the R6A-II does not offer the opportunity to install a hard drive; everything you do via this device will have to be either via a wired LAN network, or via its two USB ports and eSATA port.
In other words, it’s great for external hard drives and media saved on a network. Because it only offers RCA outputs, as opposed to component outputs, those that want to take advantage of its full HD performance will have to make use of HMDI, which isn’t a real problem.
It allows for optical audio output as well, or the user can make use of its Dolby stereo functions. The R6A-II is a good option if you’re not using a wireless network, and want a media player to be a component of your home entertainment, rather than a central hub. It comes as a good price, but lacks many of the extra features that make the R200-II great.Egreat R6A-II Media Player
