Introduction on TViX M-6500A
Let‟s start of this review with crushing
some dreams, the TViX M-6500A will not
be the “perfect” answer for all
consumers and not the “perfect” solution for all your media
needs. It offers the basics and negates the advanced. The
scene is still partially a “rush” to the market affair, with the
inevitable consequences of constant firmware updates being
necessary.
In a „perfect‟ world what should happen is a player coming so
close to your needs that you live happily ever after. DViCo is a
company with a history that done just that in the past. With
the new and improved TViX M-6500A model, expectations from
customers are high and the bar has been raised again as
everyone wants what the older player offered and much more.
What’s in the Box?
In the box there‟s more “value” already. Finally DViCo decided
to add a HDMI cable so you can experience HD out of the box
without shopping for extra cables.

The Tvix M6500a Player.
The unit itself has undergone some cosmetic changes.
The front is now completely made in refurbished aluminum.
The rest of the unit is the same as the 4100 series, developed
in dark and hard plastic.
The Front Fascia Panel.
The front panel houses a 3 X 1.5 inch screen supporting 3
colors, which is functional.
As with the 4100 Series the function buttons are combined in a
big metallic steel circle on the front and are unchanged. It has
a light blue /purple backlight behind them which switches off
once a movie is started. Buttons cover standard operations;
play, pause, directional select buttons, on/off, setup and
functions (triggers sleep mode).
The Rear Panel.
The rear harbors all the connections you need for HD and SD
(no SCART) and the usual options for sound are available as
well. The HDMI is version 1.3a, there is both Component and
S-Video and another SD source over composite for video.
Sound connectors are analogue stereo and digital Optical and
Coaxial.
External connectivity is catered for by the Ethernet RJ-45
(10/100). There is a USB2 slave along with 2 USB2 hosts
above the network port, incorporated for network and PV
connection or using external hard drives.
The little cover on the upper right, can be removed making
room for a DVB-T tuner (the T430) allowing the unit to become
a recorder for free to air sources.
