Those that speak Turkish will definitely find them of more interest, however, and you do have the ability to add your own IP channels to the list to make the functionality more useful. Hmm, we suspect the natively supported channels aren’t going to be of too much interest to a big proportion of UK readers as none of them are in English, in addition to the fact the quality is generally dire. The few test recordings we setup worked OK but the lack of programme details makes it a pain to use. In fairness, most will integrate the tuners into KODI with a PVR addon but, still, the Wetek App should be much better.
We have notified Wetek about this and we await their advice on a solution.

Sadly, the Wetek PVR software isn’t, with programme listings and data taking an eternity to load for the HD channels.

Furthermore, the deinterlacing performance was really bad with blatant jaggies everywhere and, to top it off, there were frequent dropped frames on the channels where the sound was OK.Ĭredit to Wetek, however, who quickly supplied us with a developmental software update which solved all of that OK, deinterlacing performance isn’t as good as a standalone box or that in a TV but it was certainly acceptable. The worst offender was the sound where any channel with HE-AAC audio would just produce a static/white noise since all HD channels on Freeview use that codec, it was a deal-breaking issue.
Things didn’t go quite so smoothly following that, however, as the subsequent audio and video performance from the channels was, quite frankly, very poor. The review sample came ready fitted with the DVB-T2 tuner module -.you can also get a version with satellite tuners - and it quickly picked up all the available Freeview services on the initial scan. The TV functionality of the Wetek Play is split into two divisions, with Wetek Theater covering the more traditional broadcast side of things. The LAN Port is a ‘regular’ 10/100 Mbit number and the Wi-Fi(B/G/N) adapter operates on the 2.4Ghz band, only. There’s also only 4GB of built in NAND Flash storage so you’ll definitely need to expand if you’re looking to take advantage of the PVR capabilities but you have options via Micro SD and USB inputs. Still, we wouldn’t buy this product as anything but a vehicle for KODI/OpenELEC in any case and you’d expect it to run those just fine. There’s a rather long in the tooth AMLogic AML8726-MX (1.5Ghz Dual Core) processor together with a Mali MP400 (Dual Core) GPU, backed up with 1GB of RAM so it’s not going to knock any spots off others we’ve tested in any benchmarking scores. The Wetek Play definitely doesn’t boast one of the more impressive spec sheets we’ve seen but as long as it performs, we won’t worry too much about that.
You can pick the Wetek Play up in the UK for around £99.00 (July 2015) so it finds itself amongst some pretty formidable competition. Also in the bundle comes membership to Wetek’s WeCloud Antenna service, providing access to various IPTV services and since the company is a sponsor of both the KODI and OpenELEC foundations, the performance with the World’s favourite open source media software promises to impress. The near unique feature it holds up its sleeve comes in the shape of digital TV tuners with choices of DVB-S/S2, for satellite reception, or a DVB-C/T/T2 version for those with an aerial atop their roof or receiving services via cable.

The Wetek Play is an Android media hub with a twist.
