Morning All,
im in the market for a new TV. I am considering a premium for a TV that can playback my MKV files.
I have tested a series 8 samsung with content on a local USB drive which was fine with all codecs (1080p, 6 channel dts, AVC high profile, subtitles (couldnt see subtitles but subtitles did not cause a stutter a la xbox).
However network playback testing is not possible in a store.
I am happy to pay a premium for a tv that performs mkv playback natively across network (SMB preferred, dlna otherwise) without additional boxes/cables.
otherwise i will probably buy a much cheaper tv with an extender (liking the look of those ceton echos as all my content is in media browser).
anyone got any experience in this area please?
thanks
