Buzz Player has the ability to play a huge range of formats including:
- Container formats: 3GP, AVI, ASF, FLV, MKV (Matroska), MOV (QuickTime), MP4, NUT, Ogg, OGM, RealMedia, Bink, WMV, XVID, DIVX.
- Video formats: Cinepak, DV, H.263, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, HuffYUV, Indeo, MJPEG, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 Part 2, RealVideo, Sorenson, Theora, WMV, Bink

Along with a huge range of other features, the main thing that set it apart from the rest for me is the ability to stream media from NAS (Network Attached Storage) devices. Previously we have posted about how to install XBMC for Apple TV 2G allowing you to do the same thing for the Apple TV. In my situation, I have a NAS drive storing all of my TV series and videos, combining this setup with Buzz Player, I can stream all of my media over WiFi without having to sync any content to my iPad.If you are looking for a media player with network abilities for your iPad or other iDevice, this application is for you.![]()
