Dune HD Smart D1 or Popcorn Hour A-210? still undecided which one to choose..

Sifus,

Another question. Where can I find wireless dongle model supported by Dune HD Smart D1?

Thanks,
William

Another question before I make up my mind whether it's PopcornHour A-210 or HD Dune Smart D1.. Does Smart D1 support the mkv with chapters?

Edit: opps.. I just find out from the spoiler that it do support chapter in mkv..

Good info sharing.. at least I have a clue if I decided to get myself a Dune later on.. Still waiting to dispose off my Eaget M9..

Is this the same way to change the region code for Dune HD Smart D1? Or Smart D1 can't change the region code?
Thanks!

Thanks bro.. Will try that out.

My smart D1 with the patch can change the region.. Just that the 4x press on the mute button have to be a bit slow.

Just a bit curious as my Dune HD Smart D1 can't play the Kick Ass BD-ISO. It just hang while loading but the same BD-ISO can be play on my HD Media HD200a which's realtek R1055 chipset based player, albeit without the menu..

My HD Smart D1 can't play the Kick Ass BD-ISO too but HiMedia HD200A realtek R1055 based player can play without problem, albeit with the BD full menu..

Bro htkaki, mine have 4GB pen drive on the Dune Smart D1 but it cant play the Kick Ass BD-ISO

No particular error message as the Kick Ass BD-ISO just hang at menu loading.. I also experience some other m2ts or BDMV without sound also but the HiMedia realtek R1055 based player can pass through the HD audio to my AVR. My HD Dune Smart D1 running the latest firmware tho..

If your Dune D1 was connected to internet, it can auto check for the latest version firmware. Else, you can always download the latest version from http://dune-hd.com/firmware/hdsmart_d1/

Copy the latest firmware to USB drive root and upgrade from there..

WOW.. you really need step by step guide..

3. Sources -> USB Storage -> Downloaded firmware
4. Press ENTER
5. Select 'Upgrade' and press ENTER

If you're not interested with the BETA, then just choose the latest non BETA which's Version "110606_1315_update1" (the latest stable version)

Version "110923_1710" apparently also a stable version but it wasn't released for D1. If you want to know, the 1st 6 digit represent the firmwareware release date.

I think it's better for you to specify what camera that you use to take the video as different camera do have their audio codec(usually aac format) and usually computer won't have problem to playback the audio from your MOV video taken using camera as the codec was installed.

Your setup is important too as sifus can try to assist based on your setup. I mean if your Done D1 connected directly to TV or AVR. It could be your audio output setting or capability of your AVR or TV

As I mention above, the MOV file most of the time using aac audio codec. If D1 connect direct to TV and audio out was set as raw, I think it might be the TV won't be able to decode the aac format. I'm just guessing as I don't know your TV model. Can always try to change the audi setting on you D1 to decode to LPCM and see if it does help..

It's not necessary to have shorter name but both mkv and subtitle should have same name right?

There's posting somewhere along this thread mentioned how to apply patch to enable region change for Dune and how to change the region to match the BD-ISO file.. Can't recall where but you just have to read through..
