Make sure the media player you are buyng can play all kinds of MKV files. The Clamul i bought could not. I already consulted their technical. He told me that he will come back to me very soon.

Clamul 1080p media player gave me a lot of problem. First it cannot play dts audio, with only picture but no sound. Then i was advice to get an amplifier for dts audio. Hene i bought an amplifier. Now it can't play 40% of the mkv files. But I had tested these files with Dvico, and they work. So i took these sample files to the clamul's distributor and ask them o verify, but there are still no news from them. And also i bought them about a week ago with a counter at WinChance, LYP for RM450, today they are throwing price at All IT for RM 399. Hence, i went back to WinChance to check why the price is so much cheaper with ALL IT. But the pomoter rudely told me off "if like that ar, then you buy from ALL IT lar" knowing that i already bought from him. This is like without after sales support.

If i know i was facing so much problem, they sell to me RM 300 also i would not want.

Thanks for the info.
Btw does anyone know where to get cheap fiber optic audio cable. The one i found in the electrical store are all selling high end ones. Anyway how much will the cheap ones be ?

You can try cabletron at low yat 3rd floor. Please bear in mind cheap ones might not be able to work with clamul. It depends on the light from the optic cable. I had tried a few and i already gave up, hence i bought a QED optic cable for RM210.

My problem is i am getting more and more mkv files that cannot be read by clamul. Maybe i would want to sell my clamul + the optic cable for RM 430, if i could not get any answer from the clamul supplier by this week.

What an expensive lesson!

I got a fiber optic cable. Tried it and still no sound. Apparently the Coaxial & optical Output gives the same result. 
Consulted the manual and realised that it does not say anywhere that it supports DTS. However it supports AC-3. There is no point flaming the Clamul MovieBox as the manual did not say anything about DTS support. 

My best solution is to just convert audio part of the MKV file from DTS to AC-3 sound. Tried on one MKV file with DTS audio file it is works.

Clamul does not support dts. It only allow the pass through. You need an AVR to produce the dts audio. In fact i m playing my shows with 5.1 dts audio using the AVR. Without the AVR, there will be no sound for dts audio files.

You need a good optic cable from your clamul to the AVR.

Jimmy, sorry to let you know i already sold it to a middle east guy a week ago. My advice if you want to play mkv files, you can go for WDTV. The PQ is is like Dvico. Butthe SQ is a bit off.

Can this media player play BD iso file & bistream lossless audio?

it cannot even play 40% of the mkv files, what else can you expect it to do. for SQ and BD iso, maybe you can go for Dvico.

As for this clamal, i even go to the distributor's office and gave them two mkv files, one can be played and on cannot. and ask them to come with the solution,but till today, after one month stll no news. Call them, and they slam on your phone.

Somemore, the whole office is three person working. the lady boss is pregnant still working. If you want to kn0w more information, on this poorly support distributor you contact Clarion Multimedia Sdn Bhd, E306, Metropolitan SQ, East Wing,Jalan PJU 8/1, Bandar Damansara Perdana. 03-7710 0316.

I think they are also selling imitation garmin gps sets from china.

For your information, the problem with clamul cannot be solve by the distributor. If you follow my complain, you will understand. Now ALL IT at Low yat, already paste the box and cover the 1080P logo. cover up the Full HD logo.

please friends, do not compare this product with WDTV - that's an insult to WD.

WDTV's PQ is excellent, covers almost 90% of mkv files, Audio using optical output 5.1 surround is terrific.  And.  Do not have to worry that the customer service is going to slam your phone and tell you that they will not give support to your problem.

Ya... but i bought my WDTV for RM375 ... while my Clamul is RM450. Told you to check this forum first before you buy. Ya the PQ for WDTV is almost similiar to Divico's. Just the SQ is not as good as Dvico's.
