8player lite App Reviews

Does not work reliably with WD TV Live

Title says it all. Video playback OK, but no audio.

Does exactly what it claims. Recognized my NAS immediately and was able to start playing videos instantly. The interface is fast and very responsive. Keep up the good work.

Its by far the best dLNA/UPnP player I have used, and I have tried many. It is not fancy or pretty. But who cares. It recognizes my Buffalo NAS hard drive instantly and plays files smoothly. Please dont change anything, is my plea to the developers. Keep it up.

Tried to play a file and it says lite version only plays limited number of files. Never even played one.

Need to purchase before it plays anything... move on.

When streaming from TV, theres no audio from the HDHomeRun tuner. The app helpfully directs you to VLC for the video playback, but its annoying.

Doesnt explain How to use it!? Useless

This is the best DLNA/UPnP Media Streaming app. It was VERY easy to setup, finding all the media servers on my home network. The interface is elegant and easy to uses, specially for LARGE media libraries. It read and played from my 90,000+ song Media Monkey music library without any problem. GREAT APP!

This lite version only allows you to play 5 songs to tease you. Decent interface but no real menu.

Just tried the Nov2014 version of this app. Its flawless. Will be buying the unlocked version for sure. I use this to play my MP3 collection in my win7 media player PC onto my iPad. The best feature is it will play your media player playlists (or you can create new playlists inside the app). You can also download your music into the app for offline playback. Awesome. It plays your pictures and videos well also but the music features here are wonderful and alone worth the buy.

Doesnt play anything till you pay.

Trying to play video from my iPad to my TV through a Sony Blueray player with DLNA capability. The app sees the Blueray player as a DLNA renderer on the network, but wont output through it. Doesnt work with PS3 either. I found a different app that does work but the playback functions are very limited. I guess Ill just go back to that one.

Dont even try.

It works well if you use it right. I use it to play mp4 movies on an iPad that are streaming from my Zyxel media streamer. I only gave it 4 out of 5 because it baits and switches. The lite version is advertised as free, but then the app stops you during the movie to make you pay for the app. Not cool.

I have been using this app to stream my 13K songs from my computer to my receiver and it works perfectly. I have been using this app for over 2 years. Sees my WMP and organizes the library just like I have it on my computer.

This wont play any of my MXV or MP4 files. You are presented with a dialog to buy their $5.99 no add player. Im not a fan - this was a waste of my time.

This app has Google ads-I deleted the app because of that.
