Hi, since hitv 2.0 is rss based, is it possible to add eztv or piratebay rss to it? hehe. I tried already but cannot.

Can all users share which firmware you are using? Is it illegal to talk about DIY firmwares?

Thanks biggrin.gif

Hmm same case as me bro, 5mb unifi, quite laggy at times.

But sometimes it's the server you're connected to. Try few other servers biggrin.gif

I didn't set anything on my router though.

The streaming capability in M'sia really sux. PPS is blocked altogether.

I tried putting the player on DMZ also the speed does not really improve.

But then there are so many servers to choose from, so try a few more and some might be better. My buffer never increase over 35% so it's damn laggy.

One question though, i m using 600A and planning to plug in a HDD and share it through NFS and make the 600A into NAS.

Is it ok to leave the 600A on all the time so that i can share the HDD to my other network devices?

I am afraid prolonged usage might harm the unit. Thanks biggrin.gif

Should've gotten the 600B with internal HDD support. Ended up buying an external USB3.0 Sata HDD Case which costs around RM100 also. sad.gif

Hehe, i have USB 3.0 in my desktop, sort of a future proof investment.

I find it expensive at RM99. Should've bought the Dlink NAS enclosure. Also RM99. But didn't know of it's existence then. Sigh...

Or go ahead with 600B sad.gif

900 Series seems very good. But price steep a bit.

Can read review (in Chinese) here.

http://www.hdpfans.com/thread-30405-1-1.html

I'll sell off my 600A and get the 900B once the price comes down a bit. I will also need a 3DTV tongue.gif

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

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?

Firmware releases are for bug fixes and improvements.

If the unit has got not much bug left, normally no firmware will be released.

Unless it's a major revamp such as interface, functionality etc.

But looking at 900 series reviews, the firmware is actually built on top of 600 series firmware. So meaning the functionality should be the same.

Thus, a slowdown in 600 series firmware release is normal.

Couldn't agree more about streaming, i saw in hk the streaming is sooooo smooth and pps can be used.

Come back msia everything lags... buffering never get over 35%, and mostly stuck at less than 10%.

Sigh, if only streaming can be better.

Hmm, i have problem no.1, sometimes the player will hang. But i thought it's because like you, my hdd is connected to my pc over the network which is again through homeplug.

For no.2 i have no problem locating my hdd connected to my pc. i m using the latest firmware (Custom)

For no.3 i always try to find srt and ass subs. Also, most of the mkvs have internal sub, so mostly i find subs for avi files only.

How long did you press the back button? Right after you press on button it will say upgrading or something, then the screen will flick for a while and show the progress bar in green.

Only release the back button after the screen flick and showing the green progress bar.
