any users here?

i just got myself a 4100 series witht hte latest fw, playing mkv files

as well as receiving HD signals

1.5k for the 4100 nia
1.7k for the 5100

both are identical except for the outlook, the rest are the same
but dvb tuner for 4100 cheaper

so far so good, only a few files got problem, no audio or stuck
tested a few 720p mkv files yesterday, all played fine with dolby digital except for one file gone in 60 seconds

DTS i think kenot yet, due to licensing fee
the rest im not sure as i only have optical, no hdmi output to try with

DD+? tat im not syre
tvix doesnt support rmvb

wat location? u got wat files?

lots of ppl buying flat panels are for showing nia, not a very high percentage of buyers tat fully utilise its resolution, i know many who until now are still using composite for dvd playing not even component least to say hdmi

blu rays and hd dvd are not tat hard to get, i get mine from amazon, which is hassle free and fast, and end of the day its even cheaper than those on sale in msia

lucky for jaybee ppl(me ) im able to receive HD signal from spore, although not much, but @ least i know my HD panel is not bought in vain
dunno is there any HD5 users in jaybee yet or not, am i the early adopters?

bro ashe, faster go hidef lar, dun wait, i think this war is gonna last a long time

not neccesary gamers, a lot of those family who has 42 inchers doesn play games

i dun think there is anyhting tat can really strect a 4:3 to 16:9 and keeping the right ratio

i can only say those 4:3 files played in full screen mode is acceptable to me

newer models only support SATA

i recorded a 2 hour HD5 movies, cost me 20gbs commercials included

the 4100 is made of plastic, but it doesnt look and feel tat plasticky

the 5100 wherelese is made from alloy

good for u, good price there
i got it for 1550 but i heard penang no need bulk also 1450 liao

hope u can get urs soon
i need some tvix kakis

vex, u can try looking at thei rdealer website for penang address

i think its under www.idealtools.com.my

drian, yeh, many would prefer to opt for a htpc, but for me, only 2 models of pc tat can suit the appearance and size, one is mac mini, and another is the acer slim series, but both of them lacking something, tats why i go for the tvix in the end

u can get wireless mouse and keyboard

and like mac mini, they even have a bundled remote control as well:P

well not everybody think tat way
in long run, i think a htpc will be better becos of newer codecs and it can play virtually all files

yea, individual needs
htpc can upscale one ar?????? wahhh

so the htpc gonna be like dem big in size? have to add this add tat?

i still prefer my TViX though

u dun need an LCD tv, u need a tv capable of displaying HD tats all

so in the end it cost more than my TViX? and its still bigger? need configurations? need to search for newer graphics tat support hdmi? need know how in pc assembly?

as i say b4, it all depends on ur needs

tvix suits me better

and heroes in HD + dolby surround + free to air is GOOD

ppl like me

quite thru there, but everything has it pros and cons, wat i can say is, tvix isnt perfect yet

yea, been to the web b4 i bought my unit
so far its working abt 70% for me, glitches are unavoidable

but i guess there aint tat much users here in msia or lowyat

yes, im using the 4100 model, aredi upgraded
still not perfect my fren, some audio issues, and certain files tat are jerking

every files tat has a problem, i would play back on my notebook and imac to ensure whehter its file issue or 4100 problem

how to share?
