I suggest you keep the external HDD. Its actually more practical to just move and patch it to your PC for uploading any media files, CD/DVD rips. There's likely more mobility in this external HDD than internallly fixed. Thats why I bought an external and no intention to have any internally. My 2 sen on this. Anyone else may differ in view.

Congrat! Smile, I got your picture. Will post here later ya.

Added on December 10, 2010, 11:24 pmAs for the mbps, there is different between external and internal hdd. For heavy bitstream file, use internal better, more stabile as well.

please don't post .......

Please post

post those "leng lui" working at the booths better ......

Dear sifus, I always get scan disk pop up after playback while connected to PC. After scan, no problem detected. Is this normal? Afraid long run will kill my HDD.....

I disconnect HDD from PlayON after powering if off, should be the safest way but still get scan disk request. Any advice?

I also power off then only disconnect the external HDD. I don't think there is a safely remove hardware option in the menu like windows.

I suppose its plain common sense that its not anticipated most users would plug in plug out every other minute and to leave that connected most of the time. Its just sensible to shutdown in the normal manner and all will be a-ok.

guys, din check wat my fw was
the issue still presist, play from hdd, toy story 3, also no image, audio only, same goes for the american

anybody can send me a link to which fw i shud be using?

btw, how to disable to reformat hdd thing, its getting annoying

sad to say, others than internet radio, which i only use once, and rmvb playability, never tried yet, this is one really un-user frenly media player

How much is this acRyan?

POHD only, between 465-515... POHD DVR costs much more. You've to shop around for best price or special promo pricing. Low Yat Plaza??

Yep, internet offerings at this time is boring! Not worth the hype.
U can download and use the latest firmware from the official forum website and it should play most video files, UNLESS your file is somewhat not in order or corrupted. Video file integrity is subjective and another issue altogether.
I use the latest release firmware and never had any problem crop up with the set asking to reformat or format the HDD. I use external HDD with NTFS partition.
I play my DVD rips (uncompressed ISO image) quite faithfully although I may sense some volume inconsistency the sound quality.

it's a Realtek
plays bd.iso with BD-lite, HD-audio decoding & bitstream, bulit in HDD & BDROM (or 2 HDD), bt, internet radio, web TV, RSS, youtube, some chinese online video/news channel, rmvb, ape, flac and most format....

without the BD ROM would be even cheaper at less than 800

Unavoidable, because newer movies now use new compression features in the software to create the MKV file. So older POHD FW (and all other media players too) are affected by it.

Those particular movies, you have to either remux without compression, or use the latest POHD FW that can play the compressed headers.

FW upgrade
--------------
If your FW version is old, using older SDK (2.0 and below) then you have to upgrade to FW3582 first (SDK 3.0) as a starting point (it contain some Boot Loaders) before upgrding to other versions above it.
