Micca MPLAY-HD Net 1080p Full-HD Digital Media Player and Network Streamer With UPnP Client and Internet Radio
I got this product mostly because it offered internet radio. It works great! I just plugged it into my Cisco wireless router and the internet radio came right up. Lots of variety. The audio quality of each station may vary, from so-so to very good.
I have used the USB input and briefly tried the upnp server feature. They both work, but sometimes the Micca needs to be restarted to see them properly. Also, while I was able to play or view jpg, avi, mpg, and mp3, I was not able to see mkv video that was on the upnp computer. With both usb and upnp, you use the Micca to control the browsing.
One final note - plan to use HDMI to connect to your receiver. I first tried the component cables and the audio quality was muddy. Using HDMI sends digital to your system, and I found the audio to be excellent when converted by my Marantz receiver.
