However, if you are in Singapore, it does not work for you. Reason is that it needs to know you are in China so that you can use it and can link the yearly subscription account with your media player. Not only do you need to buy it but also after buying it, in order to use the front end, you need to activate it. What ?!! It is just like Windows software. the Xunlei media player NEEDS TO BE ACTIVATED. in order to download any of the movies in the SHOP, your media player needs to be activated….Yes. now let’s talk about the activation of the media player. I saw a lot of channels and one day, will try to play it during a Premier League match to see if I can find free English Premier League games Online Streaming web sites for Chinese movies and TV shows and even Live TV shows. I highly recommend you upgrade to the new version…. Why the upgrade ? Apparently it allows for online streaming of Xunlei shop items and most importantly, the ONLINE TV section of the media player really got a LOT MORE new stuff as compared to the original version. under the hoods, the so called classier AC Ryan playon is a Chinese media player huh ? Of course lah…. 100% similar when you upgraded the firmware of the AC Ryan PlayOn. It looked exactly like the firmware upgrade screen of the AC Ryan PlayOn. When the firmware upgrade screen appears, AC Ryan PlayOn media player fans will go crazy. The firmware upgrade will start and takes about 5-10 mins. You need to download the firmware, unzip it, place the IMG file into a thumb drive, plug into the media player, shut down the media player, press a toothpick into the RESET hole at the back of the media player and hold for 5 seconds (YES, A TOOTHPICK), then press the button to start the media player and while starting holding the silly toothpick, wait for the firmware upgrade screen to appear before you let go. Instead, the instructions is in Chinese here. you cannot go to the menu and choose upgrade firmware… it will not recognize the upgrade file you downloaded…). The usual firmware upgrade steps in the media player will NOT work (i.e. The original firmware was something like 30th August 2011 but there is a newer 2nd September version on the Xunlei Media Player sales page. You will want to upgrade the firmware when you received it. Anyway, the whole point is the Xunlei Store that is in the media player that allows you to “purchase” and download the movies/TV serials/variety shows etc. In addition, the settings are quite a lot and I never felt lost in the interface even though it is in Simplified Chinese. It does have a pretty snappy interface and things just roll around quite well.

In one corner, it will never stop reminding you it is a XUNLEI media player

on the surface, it looks like a normal China made media player except there is an icon for the Xunlei Shop on the Media Player: So the unboxing photos of the Xunlei Media Player have been shared and so how does the interface looks like ?
