My setup :-

BD/Media Player (Video) - Component - AVR - Component (My AVR can output HD video through component) - Projector (The projector capable of 1080i signal through component but without HDMI connector)

BD/Media Player (Audio) - HDMI - AVR (to get uncompress audio)

Currently my Dune Prime BD 1.0 can do that

Is the Pop corn Hour capable of that?

Also, any BD-ROM will work with Pop Corn? can play original BD without problem?
If after adding a BD-ROM, can I still fit in internal HDD?

The C-200 price are cheaper than the Dune Max and I have an extra BD-ROM lying around, and the Dune Prime 1.0 loading is very very slow, so am looking for alternative now......

Why don't you used Digital Output/SPDIF to your AVR for audio ?
BTW, what is to purpose to get uncompress audio?

Uncompress audio = DTS-Master / Dolby TrueHD at 2-5Mbs
if using digital out/SPDIF only can get the core of the DTS/DD at max 1536kbps
see the losses in quality if I am not getting the uncompress audio? sweat.gif

Updated mine with latest firmware capable of handling 3D. But no chance to test it so far.
Firmware (3D) release notes

Meaning, if i do the following, i can watch in 3D?
- Rename files
- Change HDMI cable to ver 1.4
- get 3D TV

??? hmm.gif

I have yet to try it. So, i dare not confirm, plus, I prefer 2D hahaha

Mine is A-200 with GPU fan. (A-210 is with fanless aluminium casing)

For the latest price, you can ask TS. smile.gif

Correct me if I'm wrong.

based on "Tested with MKV, AVI, TS (MPEG)" from the update I assumed it's 1080p (720p+720p SBS/TAB). I'd tested half SBS on Sony NX710 TV using normal 1185 chipset player, then activate the 3D function on TV and set SBS on TV. I'm able to view real 3D.

if popcorn player can play full 3D 2160p (1080p+1080p SBS/TAB) and decode it like 3D bluray player, please let me know cause I'll be interested^^

edit: if popcorn really can play full 3D, will like to know if the port is HDMI v1.4 too, else it won't be fast enough.

Thanks for your enquiries. I already submit your question to my principal. Now waiting for the answer.
From the information I have while waiting for the answer, I heard that it may need fast/Good HDMI Cable to play full 3D. Anyhow let me clarify with them again.

Thank you.

Yes, the C-200/A-210 HDMI port only 1.3a. Anyhow I'm still waiting for the answer from my principal.
