I was looking at getting a streaming box for my parents for xmas, so they can have their netflix/prime video etc. in the bedroom. But their DVD player in there has just expired, so now I'm looking at a box to do it all.
So I'm looking for a BD/DVD player, with USB and Wifi, that has support for the major streaming apps (at least netflix, prime video & iPlayer) and can play MKV files from USB. It also only needs to do 1080p, as it's only going into their old plasma screen, so don't need anything exotic like 4K/HDR etc. but DTS playback, inside the MKV's would be a bonus, and save me re-encoding a whole bunch of files
Tried some heavy googling, but my google-fu must be getting out of date, as I just can't seem to find a player that fits the bill.
So, have you guys got any suggestions?
