Been ages since I checked this thread....

Currently I have my media served from a NAS (Synology DS408) to both my 6500A (living room + bedroom) via a gigabit wired network. I find this is the easiest solution to have all my media accesible from both boxes.

Yeah so many new players out there. I am still searching for my perfect box (TViX is great but no PVR function for our TV/Astro). In the meantime, I'm happy with my two 6500A, but if I find that "perfect box" with all the trimmings (PVR, all the right video/sound support, gigabit ethernet), I can be persuaded to switch.

anybody know how to install external ttf fonts type i.e. comic sans or times new roman in dvico 6600 player?

i want to ask, tvix 7000 can become PVR or not?

Taiko Boon, any idea where to get the Dune Prime 3.0?? and what is the latest price??

anybody can answer my question above?

u got PM

nabeh!!!!!!!
enemy detected!!!!!!!!!!!



traveller.. im currently on a 6500 and a dune base....

I own a Dvico 6600A.

Is there any usb wireless device that can plug on so that i stream youtube video from that device in wireless mode?

i m owner of 6600N. happy with it. can play iso files.
are there other players better than this?

the is a DVBT tuner for m7000
but cant use at malaysia as all broadcast is analog

Hei, guys. WTA. I m using 5100HD and the 1TB already fill up long time. Thinking of changing to 2TB F3 samsung HDD.

Have you guy try it before? The player can detect the 2TB HDD?

Added on June 28, 2010, 8:55 amCan I ask how you configure the NAS that can stream the file to the 6500A?

I have the DS409+ and 5100HD. Currently using PC to transfer the file to the player through g modem router. Thinking doing same connection as you.

I also did search on tvix dvico website and found out that only have d-link dwl-g122 and linksys wusb54gc wifi usb adapter compatible with tvix hd.

There two dongles only support up g mode.

Did anyone try use Belkin N150 wireless usb adapter on Tvix Dvico 6600a?
I already done a bit googling and this wifi dongle is using Ralink RT3070 chipset.

so dvico can detect belkin n150 wireless dongle?

Don't dig up and quote my Mar 13 post lah If I can remember correctly that time Dvico (can't remember 6600 or N1) using 1073DD only.

Nowadays probably different. Not up to date about Dvico products, but even AC Ryan POHD nowadays using 1073DD+ chip (1073DD C+ to be exact).

新的TViX 3600会带有USB 3.0接口

We already mentioned the upcoming Tvix 3600 in our interview with Dvico. The release of this product is currently delayed and not all of its tech specs are known, or even decided yet. However, we do know that it'll be built around a Realtek 1283 chip, probably the 'Plus' version that's compatible with HD audio. We also know that the manufacturer plans on integrating USB 3.0 and eSATA connections. The first test models should be released to journalists sometime this June.

Two other new Dvico media centres are scheduled for release before the end of the year. Although it's still too early to have any word on their spec, we do already know that one will use the new Realtek RTD1085 chip (not due before October) and the other will use the Sigma Designs SMP8656 (due in September).

N1+ is using 1073DD+ and M6600N is using 1283DD+ and M3600 is using 1283DD+ also.

Added on July 7, 2010, 5:54 pmYup. As from the latest updated firmware, it is support Ralink RT3070 chipset. But why you go for N150? Since you can get 300Mbps currently in the market now. Even A.C.Ryan and Xtreamer wifi also compatible. We have tested.

So that's the current lineup.

That means the old N1 was the one using the 1073DD.

This post has been edited by Ngto: Jul 7 2010, 08:56 PM

Only about 100pcs N1 old version were sold at Malaysia. The batch started on March 2010 all using new 1073DD+ liao. But as mpcclub mentioned, if customers do not have HD Audio HIFI, it is no different between 1073DD and 1073DD+.

Hi, I am looking for HD content. Prefer in BD-ISO format. Please PM me to discuss. many thanks
