Menu response sometimes sluggish, especially with high CPU or disk load, Fan is not temperature controlled, Gigabit LAN delivers only 100 mbit performance, BitTorrent client can be accessed only through browser and not through player menu (ver 3966), Unkn
I've been an owner of the original AC Ryan PlayOn!HD for a while, so it was relatively easy for me to spot the differences/upgrades coming with the new PlayOn!HD2. First of all, what matters most not only to me, but also to many users out there, is the...

Having already reviewed the smaller A.C.Ryan PlayON!HD Mini 2 FullHD Media Player i really thought that the PlayON!HD 2 would not have anything better to bring on the table and i am glad to say i was wrong. True the interior 3.5" drive space wa...
Full retail package HDMI v1.3 cable included, Can playback almost anything from mpeg 1, 2, 4 ASP & AVC formats, Can playback almost all audio formats (mp3, AAC, Flac, Ogg, WMA, RA), Supports 1080p and DTS soundtracks, Includes 1TB 3.5" HDD (with support for up to 2TB), Includes 2x USB2.0 and USB3.0, Supports both Wifi and wired lan connection, Stable playback for all video/audio formats, Supports
Local LAN copying speeds are slow, USB/SD Card copying speeds are rather low, Internet services are slow and you can't really use the USB mouse (no cursor), Device a little noisy when you play lowvolume movies, Wifi module costs extra bucks to buy and may cause wireless connectivity issues
So, the new PlayOn!HD 2 definitely would have my preference over the 'older' first revision. Then again not everybody uses or needs 1080P media players, and if you have a TV at HD Ready (720P) level, you might as well save some money. Be sure to upgrade t...

With so many features, it's hard not to like the AC Ryan Playon HD2, but we can't help think that it could be so much better. A few interface tweaks, some added functionality and a little more speed could make it one of the best media streamers on the...
Today I'm going to talk about AC Ryan's PlayOn!HD2 media player. Just recently and this follows suit. One of the negative impressions I had with the KWorld player, however, was the UI. AC Ryan has not made the same mistake, believe me. AC Ryan's Pl...
Gigabit Ethernet and USB 3.0, Space for internal hard drive, Decent Web features
Interface a little slow, Could use better functionality, Remote control could be better
The A.C. Ryan Playon!HD2 has a long list of features and capabilities. It's not just a regular media streamer; it can also handle BitTorrent downloads, share files across a network even let you use Twitter and Facebook through your TV. But it could use be...
Wide range of format support, including BD-ISO In-built gigabit Ethernet torrent support Supports USB 3.0
There is, quite literally, no manual available at all Crash-prone Noisy fan Remote control and menu design still needs a lot of work
The Playon!HD2 is an unusual mix of excellent format support with terrible documentation, serious stability issues and whacky GUI control choices. It's inexpensive, but unless firmware updates can address the control and stability issues, it's a poor c...
Abstract: Another day, another media player shows up in VR-Zone's office, where it sits on my desk awaiting its judgement in the form of a review. And this time, it is A.C. Ryan's Playon!HD2 which will be in the hot seat. How well will it fare when put to the test?...
