Bauhn (ALDI) 4K Ultra HD Issues - Help

Hey

I'm just wondering for anyone who owns one, currently bought the 60" I'm having massive issues with the USB/media player.

I got it playing some .AVI files, support told me to do a shipping reset and I managed to get most files playing.

A few hours later it's playing up again, it basically plays a file for 2-3 minutes and then freezes and says unsupported file.

Support told me to return it to a refund or exchange.

Like mentioned, I got it working after the reset on MP4, mkv etc
But now it's doing this again, and it even did it on an. AVI file

This must be a hardware issue? My files play on all other TVs, including one which uses the same media player with no issues

Another issue, if using a Telstar box for Netflix is that sometimes sound takes 1-3 minutes to come through, normal? The tv is very laggy.

Thank you

P.s. even the fast forward is ridiculously slow lol

    I think the following applies to your purchase; You get what you pay for

    • Haha

  • Return and refund. Run away.

    • They have many models which are super popular, and I can't find many issues on any forums

      I'm wondering if it's just this unit.

      • Exchange it and you'll get your answer. Then refund it it wasn't just that unit.

        • True

          I'll try some other external hard drives and play around with it

          It basically decides when to work, or not.

  • Up to you if you want to try another one. Yes could just be a faulty one. Could have similar issues later. Believe ALdi are reasonable for warranty. Personally I would just return it.

  • Sounds like a POS. Better off with a Soniq or maybe one off Kogan.

  • If the video display is fine - that’s the priority. Look at other plug in media players for your content needs, the bauhn doesn’t have great software and I’m not surprised its struggling to play media files.

    • What do you mean other plug in media players?
