anyone in penang saw this baby sold at places other than pc depot, which is at RM 419

that's becoz avenger is only selling 3xx include postage. ehm... wondering if he avenger do COD.
I am not a guy with pay and ship method nowaday. i prefer walk in pay and walk home with my new gadgets

I was wondering, if the source is in "DTS-Master or Dolby TrueHD" for eg, like in BD discs, will it be able to somehow down-sample/process/convert to regular 5.1 AC3 or DTS thru TOSLINK to older AVR that only does AC3 and DTS but not those new gen HD audio.

I am asking this as I do not have an AVR that decode DTS-Master or Dolby TrueHD, only does AC3 and DTS:ES to 6.1. And I considering to buy a ps3 for BD movies. Do not mind no DTS-Master or Dolby TrueHD, but I should at least get AC3/DTS right?


Or all BD movies has regular AC3/DTS alongside with DTS-Master or Dolby TrueHD?



and yeah, my WD TV coming later today...

thx ExarKun for the confirmation, now its SAFE for me to go PS3

my WDTV was hand delivered by avenger to my house at Pg from SP! What a service! Guess what, the 1st chaplang HDMI cable (RM 39) was defective and my pana LCD refused to display anything after the WDTV booting. After 1hour troubleshooting,we gave up and went to buy another chaplang cable (RM 45) to try, happy story!

Now i need to decide which firmware to flash

the WDTV is now connected to 32" Pana 720p LCD via HDMI, then TOSLINK to my old Yamaha RXV459.

ehm, guess what, I found a few weird MKV that just wont play on my WDTV.

one of them is, Ghost in the shell 2.0 720P, with 6.1FLACs.
old firmware , the audio shown unknown stream, expected.

after flashed to the 04 beta f/w, became totally unplayable. weird.

another MKV is my an old 1080p Top Gear special episode with AC3 stereo.
playable with major skips plus no sound at all.

Basically I re-watched Olympic 08 opening 720p just now, basically just giving all sort of WOW factor to me, now my HDTV does look like a HDTV.

Now I need to find more HD files.

ok now this is even weirder
will try that asap. Thx for sharing.

by right, it should be able to play muxxed FLACs track in MKV right?

the non-playable MKV still remained not playable with this method tried few times a day.


been using it since day 1 I got my unit, so far so good.

downloading and testing v06
hope the FLAC in MKV is now playable

just curious, with so many feedback from us, can the TS updated them to the 1st page, this make things easier for new comers

v06 so far so good for 1 day usage since flash.

one thing i hate is we cant control the audio 's dynamic range, certain movie is having way big range, and voice/center was low on volume while the effect is huge. not good for late night movie session ahha

ExarKun, u using the DVDmod? How was it anyway?

Does it somemore play normal authored DVD in easy way? or need to browse for VOB?

ehm, I duno wherther the dynamic range compressor affect DTS too. But I am havingthis for both Ac3 and DTS tracks.

now i need a feature request for my WDTV.

the ability to turn off sound transfer over HDMI as I am using HDMI for Video only while TOSLINK for all sound transfered to AVR.

The annoying part now is, its its decode-able format, I will have to mute my TV in order just to enjoy only the sound from the AVR instead of the TV.

is there anyway to display subtitles if its inside the same folder but under difference file name.


For eg:

ABC.avi
ABC[EN].srt

I noticed it wont work :/

How bout if I have a few subtitles in difference language and required an ability to select from it. ehm :/

doesn't work on v07 either.

ouch. dint know [] does not work. :/

let me test later thx for sharing.

just curious, what does the library do anyway compare to off?

OK then I need to turn off Library view.
Dont think I need them Coz i usually navigate via folder.

ok thx for the feedback.

At this price, I double agreed on the features & performances offered also.
Just buy it if you need a HD capable media player with limited budget.

for passing thru the HD audios, u need HDMI v1.3 and above, the WDTV is using HDMI v1.2.
