Sorry I'm looking for one player that can play ISO on BD rip with all the features, subtitle, menu etc remain intact, can this HDX1000 do it?      Sorry for my silly question ...  New to NMT ...

If I still have my MKV collection I could already own a HD media player now.

BD still my main priority, now and future. I even never go to cinemas since last year, I could wait at least another 3 extra months for the BD. I could be only watching this summer's blockbusters in November!

But can never say 100% BD, more than half of my disc collection is DVD collected for almost 10 years now. Last month I even bought complete all seasons collection of Friends, The X-Files and Everybody Loves Raymond on DVD. So cheap, all three sets cost me less than RM900.

Well, same reason why I didn't sell my PS3, the more the merrier. Just like to have a HD media player to complete my setup. In the future I plan to have a dedicated CD player with it's own pre/power amp.

ISO DVD and ISO Blu ray are 2 different things... please confirm again if can play BD ISO, then I can consider buying one HDX my self..

BD ISO? That could be around 40GB for high profile titles. Could take me one whole week to download. ...

ops...sorry, no ISO BD.....afaik other NMT also cant right now

Yes, I'm thinking about ripping my BD collection into ISO format for backup purpose and play them on the HD player be it NMT or others if possible...

instead of ISO (which is the best way if you want the menu intact) you can always rip to BDMV+CERTIFICATE folder, and use the super huge M2TS file inside the STREAM folder.. so it will play just like a MKV.. main movie only..(no start menu etc)
why dun give it a try and rip one of your movies and experiment.. it's hard to explain the BD ISo or BDMV folder unless you tinker around..

I think the HDX should be able to play the M2TS file..

The TVIX has a beta firmware that enable BD ISO playback but they call it BD Lite because it only has limited features like switching audio & subtitiles. Also, can use for 100 times only. Egreat also have a new model that is suppose to playback BD ISO. You can check it out here http://www.egreatworld.com/en/ProductShow.asp?ID=163

eh?  egreat does not play bd iso ... it only plays D9 blu-ray dvd disk (like those pirate wanabe bd disc which are actually dvd dual layer)
that means basically even the hdx1000 can do it

y wan to play BD iso? It would be a massive file.. can stream or not?

Great! Finally got one unit stated BD ISO on the spec but just not sure how true it is...  Let's see anyone has it tested to prove it...

Will know by next week, am going to Shenzhen so might as well test it there. Pricing is here http://hdtank.com/

Yes,  1TB disk is estimate for 20+ BD.  Reason being i intend to burn them back to BD50 when the price is right....

even if BDR dual layer price drops to rm10 in 2-3years time (so to transfer 25BDs from one 1TB drive would still cost you RM250), and similarly we could probably get 3-4TB HDD at around RM300 by then.. so still cheaper to keep it on your HDD, not to mention as someone pointed out, time consuming to burn them back to DL BDRs.    cheers.

Yup it is most likely true by then.  But now I'm looking for one player that can at least play BD ISO without any problem on the sub, audio, an the feature playing so that I know it is the way to go.    I know it will eventually be there just the matter of time.  Just like it was hard to get a RM player 2 years back but now is everywhere

Was excited about this latest firmware... read from the forum there about some one who had updated it managed to play his previously "unplayable" MKV files. Then came across a frustrated user who had problem booting the unit up after upgrade. 

Now thinking twice...

bro mattw, by any chance you have BD ISO to try out on the player?  Is will fully playable with subtitle, audio and pop up menu?  I want to confirm before purchase....

Sorry, I don't have any BD ISO.

Just want to report my first HDX-1000 problem. It WON'T BOOT!!!
After faithfully serving me for a few months, The HDX has called it quit on me. One fine morning I found the red LED staring at me and it won't boot again.

I have escalated the case to Alex and see how HDX handle this case.

  Sorry to hear that.

Still under 1 year? Do you turn it on daily?

hows your hdx player now..? what seems to caused the problem.? izzit because of the firmware upgrade?

Update - new firmware with DTS downmix..

Hi, im have a problem that i need your verification or help.

I recently bought Maxtor External HDD 1.5TB....  & the problem is HDX could
not detect the hdd...

Why?? Anyone face this kind of problem before? Could it be insufficient power?

Any help are most welcome,
thanks.

moviejukebox on hdx1000

probably a beginners question... I have installed myihome together with the moviejukebox plugin (YAMJ) on my pc. It made an index of the moviefiles on my hdx1000 internal harddisk (actually it made the index from the same files on my pc's harddisk using the xml file with this content:
<libraries>
  <library>
    <path>M:\Movies\highres</path>
    <nmtpath>file:///opt/sybhttpd/localhost.drives/HARD_DISK/Movies/highres/</nmtpath>
    <exclude name="sample,tmp/,temp/"/>
    <description>Internal Disk</description>
    <prebuf></prebuf>
    <scrapeLibrary>true</scrapeLibrary>
  </library>
</libraries>

I now have in C:\Program Files\myiHome\plugin\moviejukebox\data on my pc some nice looking html files.
What I was hoping for, was to somehow use these on the hdx1000 itself, but I don't know how. Probably the answer is "copy them to the hdx1000". I could do that, but where on the hdx1000 disk do I put them, and how do I start the jukebox on the hdx1000 to see those files.

Do I need to install an extra program on the hdx1000 or a special firmware. I'm missing the idea here, as I cannot  find anything about this on the web.

just put htm file in the roof

Did you mean to say root directory?
