If you can manage to get any 25-40GB pure BD rip and your NMT is capable of smooth playback, do give it a try.  Kapag at least 18mbps na ang average bitrate ng video, it's pretty darn high quality image already.  Of course depende pa rin sa quality ng original.   For instance, something like Gladiator's Remastered version really blew me away...and Se7en remastered too - parang cine talaga.

chief, you're referring to the rip version right?  will try this out on my med500x... hmmm... this means i have to buy the BD to compare...  ;D

ah eh...  ;D

asus maryosep!  at ikaw pa!

kung nangongolekta ka ng AVR brader, dapat subukan mong mangolekta ng BDs!   ;D

kahit minu-minuto mong pailawin yang AVRs mo ng true high def sound di ka magsasawa!   ;)

Yeah try to find the 45GB pure BD rip (BDMV Structure) of Gladiator.  That's about 18mbps average bitrate and it really has awesome image quality.    Pero maski yung 24GB na BD ISO with 13mbps is very high quality na rin despite the compression.  Make sure it's the Remastered edition - yung maitim na maitim yung mga itim na damit...hehehe

Speaking of BDs, check out amazon.co.uk. Lot of collector's item were priced at a steal. Can't resist of buying one but have to limit purchase not to exceed $50 to avoid vultures from customs. Pag available pa ito next week kuha pa ako ng ibang titles.  ;D ;D

    * Band Of Brothers (Blu-ray) £13.61 (see price drop in cart) + £3.08 shipping = £16.69 which converts to ~$27 USD shipped
    * The Ultimate Bourne Collection (Blu-ray) £14.46 (see price drop in cart) + £3.08 shipping = £17.54 which converts to ~$28.50 USD shipped
    * The Matrix Trilogy (Blu-ray) £14.46 (see price drop in cart) + £3.08 shipping = £17.54 which converts to ~$28.50 USD shipped

new Mede8er MED500x user here..

my basic setup consists of 42" TV, Samsung HTC350 HTIB and Mede8er...the HTIB and Mede8er are connected through optical cable....

i set the audio setting to SPDIF Passthrough...my problem is that i have a movie that outputs 5.1 when audio (selected through NMT remote control) is set to Italian Dolby Digital 6 Ch but no output when English DTS 6 Ch is selected...i have to select SPDIF Downmix for audio to work but only in stereo

ripping problem lang po ba 'to? will upgrading the firmware work? unsupported ng HTIB ko? sorry newbie here...thanks in advance

From my mailbox:

Hi all Mede8ers

I am proud to announce the Beta release of the new Y2M. I personally want to thank Peter Butler for his absolutely amazing work on the new Y2M. This is a world class application and it will really help take Mede8er to the next level. Now all Mede8er users will be able to make high quality cover art in one easy to use application. Also a big thanks to MarioB for the great skin.

Note

There are two version ie win32 and win64 so pls download the one that suits your operating system. Pls remember to install the latest version of Java if you don’t already have this on your PC. The Jukebox location window is the Jukebox that is going to be made so just make an empty folder on your PC or Mede8er and call it what you like and point to it. The rest is very straight forward and all you need to do is you set the path to YAMJ and set the path to folder of your Movie directory that you want to scan. Pls use the included YAMJ package as you will probably have some issues with older versions.

For those of you that have not used Yamj To Mede8er or YAMJ before we suggest you do some Googling or check the threads on this forum regarding the best naming protocol for your movies. In my experience Y2M will work very well if your movies are named with the name and the year for example "The.Day.After.Tomorrow.2004.mkv"    





Windows 32 bit version

Windows 64 bit version

Overview of known bugs on V4 Beta based on latest Beta Version: Current version V4BETA4

1] No PCM audio on on SPDIF /Co-Ax Digital 2] On older hardware LCD led on front only changes from Red to Blue after about 5sec after switching Mede8er on from Standby (Fixed with BETA4) 3] creation of the movie, image and music folder after updating firmware or entering movie wall. This should be disabled 4] 5 sec delay before an audio file starts to play (Music Player) 5] If you use Vol Up/Down during Music Play the Player does not come back 6] .divx and bdiso not playing from movie wall 7] when in media library and press menu when focussed on a folder, then select delete. Confirm window has some layer behind that should not be there Fixed in Beta4.
8] Zoom image press info 2x and when in second info screen with picture details on the screen, return button is not working. You have to press again info button and then you are able to use Return button.
9] Dolby True HD does not always work on 1080p 60HZ when source is on USB drive or network. Need to change setting to 50hz. ------------ Awaiting audio patch file from Realtek.
10] BDMV files do not play as folder over NFS 11] when network is instable (simulate by unplugging cable) when in VideoWall browsing movie icons, mede8er hang and finally will bomb. This is not happening when doing the same in NFS network share on Video Wall 12] desired: feature to be able to put HDMI sound and SPDIF sound to off. Now both are on always. A user should be able to choose. All on or only one on.
13] WiFi field strength bar out of alignment 14] Zoom picture from thumbnail view - screensaver does not work 15] resume not working on mkv when 24fps is set to ON 16] italic tag (<i>) inside SRT/SMI/SSA not working. e.g. Giving <i>I amar prestar aen.</i> In stead of Italic without the codes around.
17] browsing about.jpg in zoomed mode with a file structure with 10 or more VIDEO_TS structure folders: Mede8er looses track and starts wrong movie or gives error when you try to start a movie.
18) Fixed Screen Size Calibration issue -- if it was set at max mede8er would show image artefacts and bom with "slow" zoom nav up/down (Fixed with BETA4) 19] When adding an usb device in standby mode or hot-plug while running, USB device not seen over samba link from PC. Need to toggle NAS from ON to OFF to ON to get it visable over samba connection. When doing cold boot (starting from power off mode) with usb device attached, it is immediately visable over samba link.
20] Not able to change genre icons on page 2 and up on moviewall.(Bug introduced in BETA4) 21] Subtitles gone after FF (fixed with BETA2 27 sep 2010) 22] Skip on series in MovieWall not working. Index goes up but keeps playing first movie in series that is started. (fixed in BETA3) 23] Hebrew Subtitles issue (Fixed in BETA3] 24] subtitles play by default on video_ts folders and mkv, even though subtitles are off in settings 25] Some movies when started from video wall only have sound for a few seconds. Pausing and re-starting makes no difference but skipping forward 1 chapter and back again gives sound ok. These are full dvd rip to iso - nothing removed from original. All work ok from media library. [logged by Shamus] 26] On mede8er start up my tv gives "unsupported audio format" message - happens no matter what audio setting I use. Connected to tv by hdmi [logged by Shamus] TV is a TV Sony Bravia KLV40V550A connected HDMI 27] TV series drop down in video wall gives wrong order - eg series 1, series 2,... series10, series 11 show as series 1, series10, series 11, series 2,.... [logged by Shamus]
Note: not really a bug.  You need to use naming convention 01, 02,03 etc.
28] PPPoE bug reported many times before i.e. using PPPoE causes lan ip address to change when mede8er starts and lose lan connection. [logged by Shamus] 29] When watching a MKV file with Subtitles, disable them via the remote and they stay away until pause and unpause the movie then the subtitles come back. Might be related to bug [24] (logged by Ricardo) 30] IN VIDEO WALL: while playing video, pressing INFO button will display movie info (filename, duration, codec etc), but I noticed that USB logo is displayed (top left corner) even media is on internal HDD ... This issue is not there when playing from normal File View.(logged by MarioB) 31] when playing mp3s screen saver flickers badly in some cases. The logo is ok it is the track name and artist details that flicker. (logged by Shamus) 32] *.MP2 file format does not display (logged by Insomniac) 33] After changing volume - need to press INFO twice to get audio player back (logged by Insomniac

With special thanks to Hansen and Frank and all the other developers in the team. Also a huge thanks to Insomniac, Maasbommel, Andy and Getsko for all the late nights and very valuable input and relentless testing.

Was successful updating to beta 4. Took the risk, warranty pa naman so i can check the bugs that i encountered in f.w. 3.04. Posted the same issues in the mede8er forum. Hopefully ma resolve yung mga issues.

BTW the videowall looks great.

Aw schucks!  I got one of the early models of the Mede8er MED500x and I guess I wouldn't have any chance to pass through the HD audio.  Anyway,  congrats to those who bought theirs with the blue sticker.

It was a great Xmas 2009 present for the both of us though.

Just some feedback on the beta 4 firmware.
My unit is with the old realtek chipset.

Videowall
The Good: Nice Gui. Like having a new nmt. Easy for the kids to navigate and a very high Wife Acceptance Factor.
Easy to add shortcut to Folders on to the videowall. Displayed icons(folder.jpg) is 12 per screen (2x6). Pressing OK on an icon will show about.jpg. Pressing ok again will play the movie.
No problem displaying movies on the videowall from my 2 external hard drives via usb. Don't know about network though, i don't use one.

The Bad: Moving to the next screen takes about a half second or more to display. Hope this will be faster on the final firmware release. Faster to search for a particular movie the old way (especially if the movie is deep down on the list) as more movie titles are displayed.

Happy with the mede8er before with the old firmware. Happier now with the new one.

Yup I agree. Sad to say...this is the only downside for the early adapters.
