VOB is supported, i tried it a few times already but cant sellect chapter which is a pain . Whats the format for BluRay?

I have the same problem with the Transformer MKV, will try your method and see

For any playback skipping, you can perform a 10 minutes chapter skip by first performing FF (>>) or RR (<<) then pressing >| or |< respectively to make the skips.
In my opinion, playback in VOB (NTSC) or MKV 720p are very stable with both Dolby Digital and DTS supported flawlessly. I am in the midst of zapping my existing Hi quality DVD collections into HDD and storing it for future home video server project. Now my mark is about 300 titles... aiming for 1000 titles within this coming June 09.

As for 1080p "green pixelation" problem, we can quickly get rid of it by simply pause/resume or FF (>>) then resume normal playback. The "green pixelation" will disappear instantly. Good luck@!

hi, anybody using SATA Docking station here? I saw ventec 1 got 2 slot that allow to plug in 2 SATA HDD in same time, can the WDTV detect both drive as well ?

I've just bought a L8 from China on Monday. It is about the size of Dreambox 500, overall the quality seems to looks better then any other RMVB player in the market. The original package does not come with a HDMI cable The remote control is one of those cheapo type, but still far better then RMVB rc I have seen so far. If you don't read Chinese then it could be a little problem as the rc is in Chinese characters pritted on it.

As for picture and sound quality, overall it is quite good. In case you have not notice, this player can play 720P, 1080i and 1080P files. BUT the player only output 720P resolution to the tv! During the quick test, I've came across 1 of the mpeg file is not supported by the L8. And some of the mkv and avi files with 5.1 audio track does not have any sound. Same problem as my HDX900 prior to latest firmware update.

Considering L8 as a high end RMVB player, then you should be happy with the player.

how much u buy ur L8 ?

Also would like to know the L8 price in China...

Lowest possible price is about RMB750. Whereas L6 and L7 are slightly cheaper.

Where to get L8? Direct import from China? Got online store? Many thanks.

rmb 750 = rm 375.

same price with WDTV .... not bad leh.

Someone is selling in Lelong. See post # 990 for link.

must be no DTS decoding as well

Can Copy the .VOB file and play using WD TV? I want to try it for myself. Hopefully it works. Thanks for the sharing.

Lelong selling RM459 (Firm) for L8 wor. ...

Good tip! Thanx!

im also having the same problem...

Hi bro, do you intend to covert the BlueRay to ISO format or just copy the BD video file over? By chance you know any player can play ISO format with all the menu/feature remain intact?

what's the name of the file?

hi, is there a way like album art in a Video Folder? Thanks

got a few..which can play BD ISO format.. one is HTPC, the other TVIX with limited menu support using beta firmware.. and another high end BDplayer with HDD media player built in... model..forgot name liao..

ok this 1 I agree

on my old 20" Sony trinitron CRT, pioneer dv-383 is sufficient to play hdtv series at nice sharp quality.

after changed to 32" plasma TV, even divx series that I used to play is now not so attractive anymore coz not so sharp edi WD TV seems able to decode the video a bit sharper than my pioneer dv-383 divx player.

p/s : ready stock for WD TV here. Anyone wanna order? and is there anyone in Sungai Petani got TiVO and Dvico? want to do direct comparison in my house with WD TV and we can share the experience here
