I think I'll head over to the wetek forum for this sort of post from now on. But Christian, you said that the wetek core doesn't have built in dlna. Maybe you misunderstood what I meant but it does have it in the media centre. It just needs to be activated and then dlna apps on a phone or tablet will play direct to the core media player. Which I was delighted with as it plays files as well as kodi. But. It can't play dts files. Are there any plans to update the core media player so it will handle dts? Thanks very much.

Yes I meant dts as part of an mkv movie. Which is great if it's coming back. Most of my viewing is via dlna and the core media player gives me the same smooth playback as kodi but has none of the bugs. E.g. The fast forward and rewind bug that makes the wetek version of kodi very messy.

That might work but if I use an external player would I not be reliant on the limitations of the external player. Eg the mx player and vlc player don't play via dlna.

An experienced Android Apps guru would need to answer that.....

I think that by using the external player it's like opening that very same file in that player so having all the decoding done by that app but I might be wrong as Kodi processes audio and video separate when doing it internally, I really don't know how it would handle it if using an external player

Has anyone of you ever returned a Wetek device? I read the terms (btw: terrible translation to German; come on...) and they state that TNT Express picks up the device at my cost. I don't want to pay 50 bucks to send the Core back to Slovenia if I don't like it...

Nothing, but this is the Wetek Core thread, so why not ask this question here?
