Popcorn Hour C-200 media player has optional Blu-ray drive
The new C-200 model of the Popcorn Hour digital media player has an upgraded processor, optional Blu-ray drive and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for fast file access and transfer.
Like the A-110 model it replaces, the C-200 can stream and play all kinds of video and digital media from your PC, storage device, network or the internet directly to your TV.
The device will create a central library of all your favourite movie and video files, and can act as a file server to send files over a local area network and the internet.
An optional Blu-ray drive turns it into a fully-featured Blu-ray player too.
The Popcorn Hour C-200 is available now online for £309 from www.advancedmp3players.co.uk. It's distributed in the UK by Digital Audio Distribution.
Comments
With a Blu-ray drive fitted, its not quite a fully-featured Blu-ray player. It cant internally decode the HD formats DTS HD MA, Dolby Trued HD, as popcornhour do not have a license to allow them to do so.
It can only pass through the HD codecs.
The Dune BD Prime 3 has been licensed to allow HD internal decoding, to output via multichannel PCM over HDMI, or as 7.1 analogue out.
Advancedmp3players are now selling the popcorn for £279, and the Dune for £369.
