[C-300] Firmware 05-01-111128-23-POP-420 (05-01-111007-23-POP-420) (19.12.2011)

About that last point, I too would like it if it was possible to show movie info like the C200. And I guess the TFT could allow for even more info. But at least the movie name and playtime/total time would be great. And it should be easy enough to allow the user to configure in which color he/she prefers this info and how bright the color should be

a C300 firmware will come this week which will add to the Display a Progressbar with played time and total time also filename will display, later we plan to show also coverart,
this firmware will fix also the BD/DVD and Audio CD Retail Discs issue, also some other fixes for sure, but more when i have releasenotes.

after that there is china new year so again a holiday for one week, then we will work on A-300 and Popbox V8 Firmware Release.

Werner

I bought a Popcorn C-300 last week and I sold my C-200 (bought on September 2009 !)
So, I can really compare the two products and after one week of use, I have some questions:

1) I have a big problem with the remote control, it's works very bad (no problem with C-200).
- Is it possible to desactivate the IR control and keep only RF control ? (I think the problem is here)
If you remove the top and look from the back on the display then you should see a jumper sitting there which you can remove, when you removed it it IR will be disabled, but i would better check if the Cable to RF Antenna is mounted correct, also check batteries maybe

2) Files .TXT are not read, is it a bug ? (read fine on C-200)
not a bug, txt was able to read because of the built in browser, which is not present on C-300 anymore.

3) Ethernet transfert (PC to C-300) are always at 10 Mb/s (like C-200, I bought C-300 to have nearly 20 Mb/s )
- Do I have to modify the "TCP Windows Size" with "17,520" value to have best performance ? (like C-200 too)
You use AUTO on Network Setup? youz shopuld be able to get 16-18MB/sec with smb and 23-25MB/sec with ftp

4) TFT display is attractive... but TFT display is OFF during movie playing
- Is it possible to switch on it? (like C-200 too)
Next firmware will show on playback a progressbar on the display, but you can now also turn it on with the BT Button on the Remote, you can change brightness with this key also

Thanks you very for yours answers.

new FW sounds good, already enjoying my C-300 a lot, but improvements are always welcome, could even consider to buy a Blu Ray drive if this is fixed at the moment I only use the C-300 with an 3.5 and 2.5 internal HDD and with NAS.
But to be able to play a Bly Ray disc would be nice though :-)

Thx in advance for the good work!
