TViX HD M-6500 Change log
================================================================================


Changes from 1.4.14

1) Player
- When a user sets OSD language in SET UP menu, the pop-up menu for
default subtitle encoding selection is displayed automatically.
# Users need to change encoding type according to the subtitle that
they want.
Let¡¯s say a user set to English for the OSD language and set
Hebrew for the subtitle encoding. When this user tries to load
French subtitle, it will not shown correctly since it is saved
with different encoding. In this case, this user need to change
encoding to Latin-I by pressing Subtitle key and select the
encoding button on the popup and select Latin.
- AAC audio track on TP/TS files is now audible.
- Fixed : a subtitle track is not shown on a specific TS stream
- Fixed : a system turn off while trying to change subtitle sync by
pressing CH Up or CH Down key.
- Fixed : keep showing unsupported font message after boot.
- Fixed : an apostrophe is not shown correctly on French OSD.

2) DTV
- Fixed a scanning issue.
- Fixed : Info OSD is disappear too quickly.
- Fixed : System is unstable if a user press audio key while
recording.
- Fixed : Channel name is shown strangely on VFD.
- Now, the power button will turn off the system.

Kown issue for UTF8 supports,
Does not supports Arabic correctly, and we don't have plan to support
this for now.

* Known issues for Video related
- When HD Audio pass-through is on with HD audio stream, S/PDIF does not
work
- When HD Audio pass-through is off with HD audio stream, playback may
not be smooth
- When DTS audio setting is digital, HDMI audio is ON and HD audio
pass-through is set to ON, then audio is not heard on the SPDIF output
(For the same setting, if HDMI audio is set to OFF, then audio is
HEARD on the SPDIF output.)
- Some WMV may not play correctly
- Digital output for AAC/WMA is disabled
- Does not support PCM audio track on MP4 now
- Some MKV with AAC may not sound

* Known issues for TS/TP Video related
- The type of PGS language is not showed.
- Some TS/TP may not sound.
- It is a new TS/TP player written by us not using SDK code. It has
better features but the player has not been tested a lot.
- It may have some files which do not work better than old TS/TP player.

* Known issues for audio and pictures related
- For MP3 files with low sampling frequency, the TVIX might crash while
playing or trick play like FF or RW.

* Known issue for Network
- BD ISO playback through Network.
# It stutters most of the times. It is because mounting ISO as a
drive overhead is too much for 6500 CPU. So, it looks like
hardware limitation. We are trying to optimize it but it may not
result to success.
# We recommend to use IFO structure.
# If you play files without refreshing the file list after delete
files through FTP or SAMBA server, the system will reboot.
# 1G option may or may not work better than 10/100M mode depends on
the network environment

* Known issues for PVR
- After channel changed, you may not here audio in short time. This is
the bug from the chip manufacturer. To solve this, you can press DTV
key or Audio key on the remote.

* Known issues for UPnP
- Audio Playlist, Icon view and Thumbnail view are not supported
- Some internet radio may not be supported

*** If you play files with HD audio tracks like Dolby TrueHD,
Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD MA or LPCM, you'd better turn on HD Audio
pass through on the setup even though you don¡¯t have a receiver that
supports decoding of these formats. Otherwise, you will hear strange
noise with some repetitive popping noise. Currently, we don¡¯t support
core decoding, if you don¡¯t have a HD audio decoder receiver, you need
to select other then these HD audio tracks audio track for now.

Firmware 1.4.25

Changes from 1.4.22

1) Player
- When used with some TVs, screen flickers and becomes black after a few seconds. This happens very irregualry, so it is hard to debug.
We think it's SDK(Software Develpment Kit) bug from Sigmadesigns. So,
we did some work around. When this happen, please press "VIDEO" button once and it will become nomal.(It is hard to check whether it solves the problem because we only have one monitor (out of 100 TVs and monitors ) that can reproduce the problem but it happens once in days.

The SDK that the firmware 1.2.52 based upon does not have this problem
but we cannot go back to this SDK because it has other bugs including
not outputing HD audio output through optical or coax.

- Fixed: The audio file tag info is broken. Does not show APE and CUE
tags.
- Fixed: The Prev and Next key does not work as paging while music play.
- Fixed: The audio album jacket is not shown on the info page when
an audio file is selected from icon mode
- Improved: Now, shows the audio jacket files on the folder of currently
playing file in the Audio info page.

2) ETC
- Fixed: Cannot copy large size files over SAMBA.
- Fixed: System reboot when user try to remount local HDD after copy
files through FTP.
