but only in chinese...

Can anyone tell me how good is S100? Since it is a Sigma chipset, the picture and audio quality should be on par with other premium media player like Dune and Popcorn Hour. And can it play 1080p mkv files flawlessly? Please share your experience. Thanks.

in english...

Thank You!

To enjoy .srt subtitle during movie playback, you need to do the following steps first.

Create a movie folder to keep the mkv and the srt file. Rename the .srt file. Let say your movie is Alien.mkv, then your .srt filename should be Alien.srt

That's all. During movie playback, just press subtitle button to enable it.

Hope you can see your subs after this.

Price is unbeatable with great picture and audio quality.

It is a great investment.

What improvements are there?

bro,

it works on .ts file as well??

Hi FusionTechSupply

What happenes if I have different version of subtitle. Example I have both an Engliash and another Chinese subtitle. In my RealTek machine I resolve this by name one Alien.English.srt and Alien.Chinese.srt files and can choose accordingly> Don't seem to be able to do that with the S100

Also I cannot play the Avatar Extended rip... And firmware...

Please advice

Hi bro,

I will try it out on S100 and let you know about the .srt issue.

The latest FW is 2.02.005

First you need to share your computer folder where you keep all your media files.

Then connect your media player via LAN under the same network.

Then you can proceed to add your SMB server to share it to your R1-II.

This is networking, so try it out.

Hi bro!

Please upgrade according below method:
1.Download and decompress, copy “install.img” file into USB flash root directory;
2.Power off the player and press restore button of the unit then power on again;


but after i restart my machine no UPDATE come out even no "please wait for USB update"..


what i try:

1) i try plug in 4GB flash drive with install.img ---- no working wait until 30mins my screen still show no signal
2) i try restart and plug in harddisk, --- it just show the egreat front page and loading and keep loading.. nothing happen.

Now what i should do?

has anyone tried a 3tb hard drive with the R200 II ?
egreat sent me an email saying all 1185 chip units can work with 3 TB hard drive

Hi bro,

R200 latest firmware is 1.0.5.39.

Fw1.0.6.8 is the firmware for R200-II not R200.

Try download the correct firmware for R200 and try again.

Bro,

Where and how to set the SMB server??

just bought egreat r100 from ccs221 & so far so good; but most of my movies are 720p & 1080p rips only. not yet try bluray or bdrip yet.

Bro,

Learned from the egreat website that the R1-II can support the BDMV file (Navigation Menu)

I have dl-ed one movie with BDMV around 40G...but the R1-II show format not support.
