This page outlines differences in functionality and features between Series 3 (XTx43, XDx33, HDx23, LS423) and Series 4 (XTx44, XDx34, HDx24, LS424) models.

...

Series 3 (XTx43/XDx33/HDx23/LS423) players support video-only .wmv (i.e. without .wma audio), while Series 4 (XTx44/XDx34/HDx24/LS424) players do not support the .wmv codec at all. 

Video Decoder

Series 4 (XTx44/XDx34/HDx24/LS424) players can only use one decoder when streaming videos.

While XDx33 players can play two HD portrait videos simultaneously, XDx34 players can play only one HD portrait video at a time.

Selecting a portrait mode in BrightAuthor will set all video zones in that presentation to portrait, while a custom BrightScript/HTML presentation can set video zones to portrait/landscape individually. This means that a BrightAuthor portrait presentation for XDx34 players is effectively a single-video presentation, while a custom BrightScript/HTML presentation for XDx34 players can have both a portrait and landscape HD video zone.
