I have been using and advocating Media Players for nigh on ten years and every user on this forum that has taken this path has never looked back.
The covenience is OUTSTANDING
No more worries about burning
I too agree that media players are the only way to go. i thank you guys for pointing me in that direction. A coiple of years ago I purchased the Argosy HV335T and I am happy with that purchase. I have heard a lot of good things about the AIOS. Is it worth the money to change over from the Argosy?
Thanks
How do you get the movie from the computer to the Pivos AIOS ?
I don't use a pc.
I have a 2 TB hdd installed in my AIOS and a 4 bay mediasonic (JBOD) with an additional 4 x 2 TB hdds...
all connected via usb which is fine for playback..
The AIOS connects to my tv via HDMI

Ramrod,
I have a Magnavox Blu-Ray player. I know it isn't the best manufacturer, but I have had no issues with anything I have backed up to watch on my HD TV's. The Blu-Ray player cost like $89.00 at the Blu**Mart store and frankly the best $89.00 I ever spent. I hear all kinds of issues about various manufacturers, specifically Sony... and I love Sony. All my bigscreens are Sony, and my regular DVD players as well.....
Hi! What is the model # and manufacture date on your Magnavox? I just purchased a Magnavox on 8/27/12 model # MBP5210/F7 and it has the Cinavia detection in it. I immediately returned it.
Consider picking up a lightly used Sony. Models in the x80 and x90 series are cinavia enabled so avoid them, but earlier models are still safe.
Family members have BDP-S570's and like them (3D + streaming). I have a S350, S550 & (my favorite) BDP-S1000ES. None of these support 3D nor streaming (neither of which I care about) but are all cinavia free and excellent players.
Of course then there is the BDP-S5000ES, which is a superb player, but pricey even used . . .
@MAINEMAN, haven't been able to get new remote or responce!
Yeah, I'm not holding my breath.
I've had my AIOS for almost a year now and although the original remote's design is crappy, I'm pretty used to it and it does everything I want.
You know me, if it ain't broke, don't fix it
Besides, I hate paypal and that's the only payment that PIVOS accepts
I luv my AIOS and you don't have to mess with making anymore back up BD discs...save lots of moola
Couldn't agree more.
It's not perfect, but no device is.
And when you consider it's only $89 US (even without the rebate)...not too shabby.
@bergman,
Did yours come with the new remote or the old crappy one.
The remote is really my only complaint. PIVOS offered a $10 upgrade in June, but their stock was quickly depleted.
Maybe I'll give it another shot
Anybody experience "cheap" made in China players? I would assume they are not likely to be ever affected by Cinavia, and probably Region-free as a bonus?
