Parents have just bough a 40" toshiba 1080p LCD. We don't have any HD inputs, other than V+ HD channels. I have all my blurays etc ripped on my PC upstairs so I was thinking of getting a patriot box office media play for the TV downstairs.

Few questions. How good are they? The 5.1 system downstairs is budget and frankly not very good (parents never bloody listen to me). How would I connect the audio to the receiver part to get 5.1? It has optical in, but that's taken up by the V+ box. Is HDMI only 2ch stereo?

Cheers!
 
Cheers.

I got this unit for my dads xmas present and it's great. Only problem so far is that randomly half way through some MKV files, it skips to the next film as if it reached the end of the film. The files are not corrupt and play fine on my PC. Any ideas?
