[C-200] Firmware 02-04-110308-21-POP-408 (02-04-101104-21-POP-408 Apps) (11.03.2011)

[mb2k]

Can someone elaborate on the following 3D information?

- 3D output to HDMI 3D TV for Stereoscopic 3D (side-by-side,
Top-and-bottom) file
- Files must be named with "<filename>.3DSBS.*", "<filename>.3DTAB.*"
accordingly
- Tested with MKV, AVI, TS (MPEG)

- MKV 3D support.
- Support .mk3d extension with StereoMode parameter (side-by-side,
top-and-bottom)

I used a Mits 3d adapter and prior to this update I've been able to play 3D SBS examples that have the *.mkv extension. I just had to change my adapters output from "Normal" to "L/R". What change does this update have for 3D files? I tried renaming one of my samples to *.3DSBS.mkv and saw no diffence in how the file was handled.

Thanks

I never complained before, because i think the popcorn is the best of the current media center, but i think this is time to do popcorn color space ycbcr. Why a player like this, c-200, who play everything and have so many functions, dont have the ycbcr ? The rgb colors are sickening. I realy dont use c-200 with my projector because of that. I try to use a colorimeter to fix the colors, but its impossible to make the colors quality close to the output of ycbcr. Its sad. I realy love my c-200, but i dont know if i will continous wait for ycbcr. So, Werner, this will come someday (ycbcr) ? Or i can give up to hope ? Sorry, but i am wainting for this a long long time.
I am sorry for my bad english.
Thanks.

This is great News Thanks. I will try it asap.

Do you recommend doing a complete re-scan to get all new features working? I only have movies.

Thanks for the update and for the great work

In regard to NMJ: None of the previous issues regarding large video collections have been solved with this issue. Can't believe I have waited 3 months for a fix to just scanning the files...now it looks like an additional month to wait.

After spending 100's of hours working with my collection to make it compatible with NMJ this is huge let down.

Are you using NFS or SAMBA on your NAS? I find that with SAMBA scanning works. And with NFS it does not. I have a Netgear NAS.

what kind of issue, i have only 1600 movies on a NAS (NFS Shares) but have no issue so the question is what issue you are talking about?

Hi Werner,

This is a problem I ran into about 3 months ago. I was updating my library around 1100 in total and the rescan got a white screen of death. I had to reboot the PCH and when it came back it wouldn't even load the NMJ.

I went through the process with a lot of help from people out here and deleted the nmj_database, etc...

I even created a new folder on the NAS and copied only the the very minimal over and regardless it only scans about 260 or so movies and then hangs on the update and just sits there. I have to reboot the PCH, etc... I have been stuck using it in the directory listing mode to watch movies.

I am using NFS. I will look into SAMBA but this was working fine for about 4-5 weeks until I tried an update. See my reply to Werner for more info. I know several other people are having a similar issue.

[xua]

I just ran an update on my movie collection (SAMBA NAS) it hung updating a BD image created with AnyDVD (Rip DVD to HD).

Had to cancel out. Further I had to reboot in order to get NMJ ui back up.

[werner]

hmm strange how do you access your nas? samba or nfs? your files are what mkv, bd, avi,....? does your filenames have maybe some special characters like |\?@$%^...... inside which for sure could fuck up the scanner.
Is your Netzwork on your C200 set to Automatic or 10/100? do you have any other Network issues maybe on playback...

Regards,
Werner

Currently accesing the synology through NFS.

Files are mkv, avi, mts, etc...pretty much the standard fare. All my latest rips are mkv.

I wrote an extensive parser/renamer to validate ALL of the file names and make sure they are 100% consistent with the NMJ naming standards and all the folder names match the video names, etc..

Network is set to 10/100.

Absolutely no issues on playback. Have a gigabit network with multiple managed switches, etc...

Thanks for your help.

[werner]

is this a persistent share setup on the C200 or do you access the share over the networkbrowser?

Please man. Say something about the ycbcr. Many users want to know about that. I never found a answer from Syabas about ycbcr, why ? Can you tell something ? There is a chance this come someday ?

[werner]

we switch currently to a new sigma sdk, there it should be fixed according to sigma, but we can't confirm already, but on current sdk it fucks up the hdmi signal it will output rainbow colors on your TV
