I've bought a WD Live Media Player which I am similarly not 100% happy with. My requirements are: * must have power on/off via remote * must be small footprint * menu click sounds * quick response with no lag between button press and on-screen menu * able to play hi-def including 1080p via HDMI * remote that is easy to configure * at least one USB port * optical digital audio out nice but not essential I have also been looking for such a device which would fit nicely in the family lounge but wont cost a fortune and have just come across this device: http://cubox-i.com/table/ According to the manufacturer the CuBox-i4Pro is ideal and comes with the IR transmitter and receiver. It also includes Optical S/PDIFAudio Out If you plunge in and try one I would be interested to hear your feedback.
