Thanks on your advises, i think i understood now.
USB3.0 nothing help in playing move, it just helpful in transferring files.

Seem like should be enough go for 600A, cause i just need play 20GB-30GB mkv file through USB external hd, and no worry on heat issue on 600A as well
Any one try before can 600A play movie on external USB DVD or BD room?

Anyone can recommend which shop selling 600A at Lowyat?

Could try looking here.

Bear in mind that if you are using an USB 3.0 ext HDD, the 600A which uses USB 2.0 may not be able to detect. I was told that for another brand, it does not work. S
o, you should check this out with the seller if you getting a USB 3.0 HDD.

yes, hd600b is hot than others if u plug hdd inside coz it dnt have built-in fan de, but if u use external hdd, outside sata cable or in air-cond place, it still working fine de (we got on demo from 11:00am until 9:30pm dnt have any issue de)

u can check here for BT download de: http://bbs.himedia-tech.cn/forum.php?mod=v...ht=%CF%C2%D4%D8
but in malaysia use any brand media player do BT download will much slow than use PC de (unless u go to china then can get same speed de)

Sure that the HD600A which is having USB 2.0 will not have issue with USB 3.0 ext HDD? Can confirm?
Cos my friend, who is using another brand could not.

i got try WD, Samsung, Seagate n Buffalo usb 3.0 HDD all no problem de...

Well..technically so long as your ext HDD USB3.0 has backward 2.0 compatibility it should work.. I have buffalo 3.0 500GB hooked to 600A, no issue.

I m using custom firmware for 600A from HDPFans forum.

May I know whatbis web 2.5? And how to use?

I see the BT Client is better than stock client.

Are those custom firmware in chinese only? I try searching for HDPFans forum and found everything in chinese only.

The forum is in Chinese but firmware is built on top of original firmware. So English is available.

ok i got another major big problem. i accidently set the device to sleep in 15minutes. torrent is stil going on.

and, im sure you guys know that the drive letter keep changing.

now, it seems that it was confused by the drive letter change from C to D and now the torrent stopped working.

everything went back to ZERO. except that my files are stil in .tr files..

49GB and was at 86%. HELP !!

What are the benefits of the custom firmware?

Lots of IMS where u can stream video online. Similar to pps.

But msia blocked pps for himedia.

Also have live tv streaming for certain china, hk, Taiwan channels.

Got my HiMedia HD900B player last week from Digital Mall, PJ (ccs221), video playback is exellent on almost all the format i tried, however there are 2 problems I encountered:-

1) After I switched off my player & switched it on again, it couldn't
detect my external harddisk (BUFFALO). Tried to switch off & on the player & my HDD many times but still couldnt detect. Then I tried swapping the USB ports on the player, sometimes it will detect my HDD and sometimes it will not....very frustrating! I tried my HDD with other media players & it works FINE...so meaning nothing is wrong with my HDD!

2) The player's audio playback is faulty...when i play mp3 files, watch
youtube videos & certain movies, the audio will disappear for a few
seconds and come back...this happens repeatedly throughout the
whole video/mp3 playback...I set the audio setting to RAW, LPCM, LPCM Multi Ch & Auto but still the same problem happens.

I took the player back to the dealer & complained. They gave me a replacement set & they upgraded the firmware to the latest version (1.0.0.26)...BUT i'm STILL having the same problems as above.
PLEASE HELP!!!

1: yes, nw hd900b will face this problem, if use 3.5 inch external hdd (nid external power one), only usb A (front use port) can detect, usb B (behind use port) can not.. (but 2.5 inch hdd no problem de)

2: when u replay the movie, nw sumtime will face audio n video not play sum time de (but i think this problem will only happen when u replay the movie)

anyway these bug himedia ady knw de, n nw we are all waiting for the officially firmware cm out (version 1.0.0.26 still just the testing firmware only)

pls understand hd900b just cm out few weeks only, cant be perfect de, i think no nid many time they will fix these bug de..

thx

Is 900B available in Malaysia already? If yes, how much? Thanks

now only have stock for hd900b wifi version, price rm650

also hd900a(wifi n no wifi version), hd900b (no wifi version) stock will cming this month de..price will be hd900a : rm399 n rm459(wifi version), hd900b (no wifi): rm550

Is it correct to say that if you do not view 3D, then no need for the HB900 series?

Seems like it, new realtek 1186 chipset supports 3d.

And also android is supported.

Will there be any chance 600 series can support android too?

yes can say like this, but still 1186 higher specs than 1185 chipset de, 750Mhz, 512M DDR3, HDMI 1.4 n Support Adobe Flash, when try the 1186 player operating speed is much faster than 1185 player de

for Android, this function i feel got many apps not compatible de, so just can say is a extra function only..

but as i say hd900a price rm399, so why still nid pay extra but get low specs (1185 chipset) player sumthing like ac ryan, xtreamer...himedia also is a very good brand..
