LCD TV that plays ISO's?
I would love to buy a new LCD tv that has a media player build in that plays ISO files which I have on my popcorn boxes. Would be nice not to have so many boxes, cables etc on all my TV's. Any leads?

You want to get advice on getting rid of your Popcorns and ask here
Seriously though it's very tied down in terms of containers that will play. An ISO can be in a variety of forms and contains many files, its far easier to add a player that plays AVI or MKV then a playlist file such as ISO or even video_ts or BDMV. AVCHD may come as home cameras use that format and i can see that being a selling point.

Chris, I said in my post I want to use my Popcorn boxes, which are connected to various TV's, to be my NAS if I buy another TV. Yep, I have run across the ISO's can be in various flavors and not all devices seem to play many of them, other than my popcorn box.
Since I now have lots of AVCHD 60 fps stuff, sure looking forward to someone updating their sw to make these into full menus driven projects, rather than having to down res them to the BR standard.
