本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛最近家里装Home Theater，买了个1080P的投影和106寸的屏幕，本来想加个蓝光机和media player，可是receiver是个老型号的，没有HDMI的接口，为了怕麻烦，就想找个Bluray+Media player一体的机器，我的要求有这么几条：
1. 稳定,稳定！Media player这东东还比较新，市面上很多都不稳定，死机是常有的事，以前买过一个，现在基本就是个废物，稳定性太差。
2. 支持BD ISO。
3. 支持24p。
4. 用的是Sigma芯片 （Realtek的画质没有Sigma的好，因为我用大屏幕投影这方面要求高点）。
5. 支持BT下载。
6. 带内置硬盘。
因为主要是看高清，对看网上资源的功能没啥要求，这边上网的带宽反正也不够，上网看高清就不指望了。
找了半天，就看上了这DUNE Max.优点是得奖无数，稳定性超好，界面简单，比较老婆friendly，缺点是没有外接eSTAT接口。

开机测试结果： 很满意，我所有的媒体文件都可以播放，没有死机和不认codec发生，放蓝光碟开机速度快，支持24fps，同轴输出5.1到receive音效很不错， so far so good..
比较懒，以下的就cut paste吧。
Introduction
The new top-of-the-range model. Universal all-in-one solution to play video up to Full HD (1080p), combines in one case: universal HD media player and the up-to-date Blu-ray player.
Dune HD Max features the powerful modern Sigma Designs SMP8642 video processor, and a built-in silent optical drive that allows the Dune HD Max to play anything from CDDA to DVD and Blu-ray disks. The player also has a 3.5" SATA HDD rack with hot-swap support, an SD card slot, and 3 high-speed USB 2.0 ports to connect external storage and extension modules.
One of the main features that distinguishes this media player from its competitors is its special compartment for extension boards. The compartment is located behind a panel at the rear of the media player. Up to 2 boards can be installed simultaneously.
The new device justifiably promises to be as successful as its predecessors in the 3.0 series, which won all possible industry awards, and came out top in all the comparative tests conducted by different high-profile technology publications around the world. The Dune HD Max supports practically all audio and standard and high-definition video formats. It is compatible with all types of "high-definition" sound formats (Dolby TrueHD, DTS HD Master Audio etc.), and plays DVD and Blu-ray discs and images with ease. Special notice should be taken of the extremely fast networking speed, the IPTV and Internet Radio functions, as well as the built-in torrent client and Internet browser, not to mention the constant product development with firmware upgrade possibility.
