Big problem here. I am upgrade to ver 2233 which was post by summer4128 and now i cant upgrade to ver2388 anymore. It say the firmware only support for Play on HD. Anyone facing this problem also?

Once I have downloaded will upgrade and let you know.

Update
--------
Upgraded. Process went without errors.

But after it restarted , when I checked the firmware info, it's still the same 2233. That means nothing was upgraded.

2nd update
-------------
Silly me. I mistakenly updated with the same firmware 2233. Upgraded with 2388 for sure this time. It appears to have updated successfully. Ver shows 2388.

Huh?? Send for warranty loo

wah upgrades feel like timebombs..

Does the Firmware 2388 solve all the issues mentioned?

Doesn't appear to be any different from 2233. But at least screen saver working properly now

yeah one day you may lose the feature you liked after upgrading..

2) Add DTS-HD Master Audio pass-through support (Playon!HD decodes internally to PCM)

WTF does that mean? Bitstream? Or internally decoded and sent via LPCM ala PS3 fat?

And still...no Dolby TrueHD.

wei at least PS3 fat decodes internally and sends LPCM via HDMI for lossless audio

this one after decode internally to PCM means? stereo PCM? 5.1 PCM, ? PCM via optical? PCM via HDMI 1.3 uncompressed?

Can downmix Dolby TrueHD?

Still negotiating for license

Give 'kopi lui' to kau tim la

Spirit of "Malaysia Boleh" ?!

If that happens, from this become this

They want 'Coffee Bean kopi lui'.

I don't think it is a licensing issue, since Xtreamer can already do it.

After being bombarded by complaints about fw 2388 here's a reply posted at the forums by Eugene of AC Ryan POHD :-

---------------------------------------
Guys, I have taken note of the matters being raised over here (referring to POHD forum) and I will provide some answers when I'm back to my desk on Monday. However, please bear with me at the moment cos I'm currently involved in an exhibition over in Singapore so I may not be replying much next week.

Some answers I would be able to provide now.

Subtitles
The previous firmware has been improved time and again on the subtitles colour, spacing, positoning, etc but all these had been "reset" with the new SDK. We need more time to adjust and fine-tune all these back to what we used to love. At the present moment in this firmware release, we have managed to improve on the colour depth of SRT subtitles.

HDMI handshake issues with certain LCD TV brands, especially Sony
This is an issue that doesn't seem to be resolved time and again even with the support from Realtek on this. Every firmware release we did seems to solve some but bring back some other's problem again. While Playon!HD isn't the only model affected, we have also seen some users seeking support from Sony which are given a firmware for their TV model to resolve the problem. Of course, we'll try to sort this out on our side if possible.

HD audio
The current upset has already been noted and we will sort this out with Realtek.

SPDIF RAW
Audio not playing (using optical) unless preview is started will be taken as a bug fix.

BT/SAMBA unable to install
Depending on your previous firmware version, you may need to reinstall the extension package again. Should the system auto installation fails, please download the package from our Playon!HD website (support tab) and try installing them off the root directory of your flash drive.

Other matters
Firmware unable to update with the error on screen, please contact me directly for a solution via eugene@acryan.com

Last of all, please have a nice weekend and do keep the bugs report coming for us to improve on them. For us to better sort out the bugs, please have them posted in our Technical Issues & Support section.
