Thread: .3686 Media Playback

Started 2 months ago by ki99
Hello all, Upgraded to the FW a few days ago but my movie player seems all over the place. First it was still playing the TV channel audio whilst in movie player mode, then after a reboot it would not play any sound on Xvid's, I then tried a .mkv file that started ok but could not turn the subtitles off and it froze for about 30 seconds 3 times through the film Anyone else having ...

I think there is still work to be done in the Movie section. When playing back MOV file movies, I cannot control the Sub-titles, the Box hangs whilst it is playing.

I can't get smooth playback when using 720P mkvs with DTS no matter what I do. I know it isn't a bandwidth issue as I have a PC that plays nice with the same files on the same wired connection. It definately didn't stutter as much with one of the older firmwares. Think I am going to have to clean format it and see if that helps.

I don't know why I can't reproduce any of these problems. If I could, I might be able to suggest a solution. Unfortunately (not for me) I have no problem playing any video files whether they be AVI, TS, MOV, or even MKV format.

Well I'm fresh out of ideas and the issues with MKV playback have me ready to open the window and chuck the box. Think a quick format might be a cheaper last resort

This is very strange. I have no problems with any MP3 files played from my external USB HDDs. I'm not sure this is due to the firmware, more likely just isolated incidents.
