Previous model does not this function so a lot of users complained. That is why this model make it as standard function. I think u just press stop button will do for the moment . I will ask HQ how to disable it.

Highlights of the latest official firmware:

 BD-Lite Menu support – Now supports BD Profile 1.0 menu present in your BD titles!

 Format HDD Prompt – Finds it annoying to be asked repeatedly to format your HDD even though you know this is required? You can now silent the player to prevent it from prompting again.
 Bugs Fixes – Various bugs and UI optimisation improved in this version!

If you have any questions or clarifications, please feel free to let me know.

The new firmware also resolved one major bug which the players will crash and auto reboot upon power up and then playing certain files. Glad to see it resolved now.

Wonderful!

Now I only hope that the future firmware release will have an option to enable/disable the continuous play thing in a folder.

Hai there,

Does ACRyan implement the DLNA in their player yet?
Like slideshow from iphone/android?

why all is for the POHD2?

so how is the POHD 1? No more support?

Seems like the update for POHD 1 is very slow already. Not unless there's a major fix they need to resolve, can't see any new firmware releasing soon. As for the POHD 2, the new firmwares did solve some major crash issue.

Bcoz HD2 is the first player using RT1185. We complained also the unstable of HD2. That is why AC Ryan full force to settle the major issues of HD2. Don't worry, they will come back to HD1. But HD1 seems more stable right now.

makes sense. i'm only using the main features of the pohd and mini, so far r4824 has been stable, good.
i'll rather they take a bit more time to do a completely tested and verified f gui2 before release.
just dun forget us!

no matter POHD1, 2 or 3

Acryan have to continous support each of them.

it is not a cheap player thou.

just upgrade my pohd2..menu scroll faster now..

Agreed but I believe that more attention has to be given to the Playon!HD 2 series as there were major problems to address/fix. Like what BoxBuilder mentioned, the HD 1 series seems to be stable when compared with the HD 2 series.

Found an issue after firmware update on pohd2. 1st on the set cannot detect the harddisk. Need off and on back only can detect hard disk. Anyone else had this problem?? So everytime need 2nd time on only can detect hard disk?

hi all.... my playon hd mini can't detect my external hard disk..... if I plug in my buffolo hard disk, it will hang after prompting 'DVD plugin'... if I plug in my WD hard disk, it will detect it for couple of secs then 'DVD eject'..... cannot access it.....

I can only play movies through pendrives......

The latest firmware for the POHD2? That's weird, sounds silly but maybe try to reflash the firmware another time? Before the firmware upadate, it works fine right?

Was it able to detect your external HDD before?

Just bought it. It will detect it then couple of minutes later hangs.

Guys,

Need advise here : AC RYAN HD 2 vs HiMEDIA HD600B.
Price for both about the same, but I think HiMEDIA has more features.

Pls help!

this is ac ryan thread!!
unlikely anyone here will have both to advise you properly.
if no existing thread on that player, you surely can start one.

Buffalo also got security to prevent PlayOn player to play the inside files. We hv reported this case to AC Ryan. For teh moment, pls avoid buffalo.

Anyone help me to solve the problem?

Try to connect it back to LAN and the speed it back to normal 2-3mb.

but why it has problem when using the wifi doggle?

Already update my wifi router firmware ( i'm using TP-Link 300 )

TQ
