Archos media player is very good

by Magnetic_dud

I found out that archos media player (freemium) is very good, much more user friendly than kodi or vlc for streaming videos from Lan

Agree... Been using it for a couple of months now and never ran into issues. Rock solid!

I have been using it since I discovered it on my Nexus Player a few years back. For me the app was a game changer. I gladly bought the full version. Prob my favorite TV app

I like it FAR better than kodi if you just want to play local content. I went back to using plex for myself though, but still keep Archos installed.

I liked it when I ran the demo. Does it bitstream audio? How do you load the codec packs?

I like it so much i paid for it. Also a small problem i did have was when i stream 4k over smb the video studders but when i streamed the same video over dlna it played smooth. I used same video same server and tested on different tv's and a mibox.

I've had so much trouble with Kodi and SMB shares and when it finally kinda worked Kodi couldn't identify half my files. Archos worked instantly and identified everything in record time.

What about vs a robust plex library?
