SKIPPA / Skippa as a networked media player?
May 25, 2015, 08:04:31 PM
Trying to decide if I would be happy with the Skippa as a networked media player to play files from the HDD of my PC on the TV the Skippa would be connected to as we do now with our old Beyonwiz.

The specs just released say "DLNA Streaming" and that is the only info, now AFAIK that means you have to run DLNA software on the PC and in the past I have found this way of accessing files on my PC through a media player to be clunky and restrictive.

So could someone please answer the following......

Will Skippa support multiple ways of connecting to my PC network as the Beyonwiz products do, including FTP?

Will Skippa be able to stream high res .MKV files from my PC as there is no mention of .MKV files in the specs? (It may fall under one of the stated file types???)

Do others think the list of supported file types looks like it will offer good support for files from all different sources?
