Thanks for the tip Hatchy, looks interesting and may (unlike xbmc) support my hardware - the info on android market is clearly written and encouraging. Shame it requires a separate media centre PC (non android) as I would really like to run a NAS with the android media player as the main (only) server. Perhaps I am being unrealistic though. Bear in mind I have limited experience with modern media environments. My first media player only had one adjustment and that was a manual adjustment to the escapement to maintain 78 rpm as the main spring tension changed ;D Moving to vinyl from shellac was straightforward enough, but I started to lose my way with beta/vhs/laserdisc wars and sort of gave up media players for a while. I'm no technophobe, but do have a bit of catch up to do. Oh yes - that first media player still works fine (my brother has it) and it is probably much more valuable than the current crop. ^-^
