Yikes, typo... RM560

How do I page up / down in the browser menu? Or is there way to jump to certain alphabet.

Currently quite tedious to scroll up and down to look for the movie

Edit: Found the answer before someone asked me to RTFM

Anybody encounter this problem with Playon! HD Firmware Ver. v7.06.r2388?

After pressing standby button, the lights will turned red. But after few seconds later, it will auto turned back on (lights blue).

Then if i were to press standby button again, then only it will permanently goes into standby (lights red).

I'm connecting POHD to a plasma via hdmi

Which setting should i use for the audio?
HDMI LPCM / HDMI Muti Channel / HDMI RAW / SPDIF LPCM / SPDIF RAW.

I've made a request for a feature add on here:-

If you guys think is good, then go post comments so that the developers may take it more seriously

Edit: I'm aware there is YAMJ that they are working on, and I have tried YAMJ... the problem is YAMJ sorts based on IMDB movie name which makes it like rojak in terms of sequel/prequel movies.

How to install/prepare YAMJ?

Note: Currently Playon!HD firmware has not released YAMJ support yet, but you can start preparing and organizing your YAMJ info on your computer first and later on upload into Playon!HD.



01) Download: http://rapidshare.com/files/330536798/YAMJ_MediaInfo.zip

Zip includes:
moviejukebox 1.7 r1258
MediaInfo CLI 0.7.26
YAMJ GUI Config v0.93

02) Extract YAMJ_MediaInfo.zip into C:\ It will extract the files into C:\YAMJ\

03) Run C:\YAMJ\YAMJ GUI Config (ACR) v0.93.exe



04) Click on Step 1, and select the directory where you store your videos
*I think YAMJ will only work with internal hard drive plugged into Playon!HD
*Connect Playon!HD via usb cable to your computer and select the video directory in the Playon!HD internal hard drive

05) Click on Step 2, and save the prompted files into C:\YAMJ\

06) Optional step:-

06a) Edit C:\YAMJ\categories.xml if you want enable/disable Categories

06b) Edit C:\YAMJ\genres.xml if you want to add/remove/edit Genres

06c) In order for YAMJ to lookup the movies correctly you can:-
06ci) Name your movie files Movie Name (Year), Example: Spider-Man (2002)
or
06cii) Create a nfo file and place the movie's imdb page in it, Example:-
Spider-Man (2002).mkv
Spider-Man (2002).nfo (paste the imdb link http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0145487/ into the file)

06d) If you want to select your own movie poster, you can manually google for the image and store it together with the movie file, Example:-
Spider-Man (2002).mkv
Spider-Man (2002).jpg

07) Run C:\YAMJ\ACR_YAMJ.cmd and wait for it to complete
*You need internet connection
*This may take a while depending on how many movies you have

08) Once done, it will create index.htm (outside your movies folder) and Jukebox folder (in your movies folder)

09) View the index.htm and you are ready to go

10) Whenever you have a new movie, re-run C:\YAMJ\ACR_YAMJ.cmd

Just to share another info (not sure whether happens to me)... I bought a 3 meters long USB cable that connects Playon!HD to computer.

Can connect and Can transfer files... BUT VERY SLOW... so ended up using back the original cable which is noticeable much faster

Note:
Copy install.img to the root directory of a USB flash drive and connect it to the USB host port of the player.
Enter the Setup menu, System, System Update, System Upgrade and Enter to confirm.
Please wait for the flashing to complete until the Playon! HD restarts by itself.
Do not power off the unit during the flashing process!

The HDMI connection may reset after updating the firmware and may go out of sync with your display.
Press the TV SYS button on the remote a few times to sync with a compatible display mode if this happen.
Once the display is back, we recommend setting to HDMI Auto in the video setup menu unless a manual mode is preferred.

Attention:
Please note that version v7.0.6 r2901 is based on the latest SDK version 3.
Should you need to roll back to an earlier version, you may be required to reformat the internal HDD through the Playon!HD system.

Yup, as what I've told Chris a few days back that there have been some unexpected code changes in SDK3.0 which we have merged to our current platform that causes our YAMJ module to fail in some areas. I'll try to release a trial YAMJ firmware by this week but certain features like the subtitles or zoom function may not be available yet until we sort out these bugs with Realtek. :evil:
