For AC-Ryan: Get back to the drawingboard! For me (and many other customers): waiting again... (or, like me, going back to a previous fw without YouTube option) Hello, You are probably just confused with the different 'naming' from previous version of the SDK 1,2,3 to the current SDK 4. RAW and Passthrough is the same thing, this basically means that you 'pass' the original signal and if you have a audio/video receiver that supports the passing audio then this will be outputted to your system. However, when it comes to your particular question, the AAC audio output -> this is a known issues in the new SDK that this firmware is based on, and has been reported as a known bug/issue for Realtek to be solved. Since this is part of the closed SDK that we base our firmware from, and this has not been fixed with this version. This audio format (AAC) will only work in 'Setup>Audio>HDMI output: LPCM Multichannel' mode. If you only have 2 channel AAC files, then it might work with passthrough/raw, but never with more channels or with SPDIF cables. Br, Hello to you too, I reinstalled v7.0.6 r2901. In this version I have the following options: 1. HDMI LPCM 2. HDMI LPCM Multi channel 3. HDMI RAW 4. SPDIF LPCM 5. SPDIF RAW In older versions I'm positive there was the (not working) "passtrough" option. In the v7.0.6 r2901 version SPDIF RAW works fine with AAC. (I can't use HDMI because of the never solved issue of the "Green Screen"...) Now why would AAC not work in your latest "super the luxe" version if it only passes though the signal? Nearly all YouTube clips have AAC... Just like how ik want my steak; RAW!!! One more advise: Don't tell your customers they're probably confused. It's not very polite and even when they're confused it might be caused by ACRyan, yourselfs...

.srt subs are only found when a few movies are in one folder; this firmware does not find corresponding subs when I put a lot of files in one folder. Also NAS is still not working, so I'm back at v3966...

 Re: [Official] Firmware_PV73100_v7.4.x.r5440
Is acces to network with hidden SSID finally working ?? -----> NO it's not !!!
And i still can't believe you can call it an official FW when you see the things that are NOT solved on the first one and a half pages in this topic. (and my guess is the problems will only grow)
But as always it is all Realtek's fault, and at ACryan all is well

Hello again, I did not mean to offend you in any way, just wanted to explain that they are both the same, but just to be clear -> RAW and Passthrough do the same thing. The difference is only in the naming between the older and now the newer firmware versions. The 'HDMI output: LPCM Multichannel AAC' issue is a bug/issue that we can reproduce, and have reported. You are not able to get more than 2channels with passthrough or raw setting, so if you want to have AAC 5.1 outputted, you must have HDMI: LPCM Multichannel. Regarding 2c AAC files, I just tested with both HDMI + SPDIF-Optical and I could get 2c outputted with all settings. Send me a private message with the files that you have issues with and I will take a look. Download/Install 'Media info' from here -> http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en/Download Open the file you have issues with media info and then go to -> File>Export>Text> Select advanced and save .txt file and send this to me with PM / private message here on the forum, then I can see details and perhaps help you with your issue. If you have SPDIF and want to have audio in YouTube, you have to use 'Setup>Audio>SPDIF LPCM' setting or you will not get audio, this is known with this SDK version. Br,

If you have 15 or less, then it should find the .srt with file name. Thanks

 Re: [Official] Firmware_PV73100_v7.4.x.r5440
Hi Mikael,
Like 3966 and 4585 this firmware has problems playing mkv's audio drops while playing. Looks like this happens when heavy movement on screen (eg. fast cars, dog fight planes) + audio starts seconds after pressing play. after forwarding , pressing pause and play again
This mkv('s) is playing without problem on 4824 sdk3 release.(and version before that one)
Didn's expect the hidden SSID problem to be solved. (also not in changelog) But do you know if this wil be solved in the future. I'm aware of your answere in the post above this one.
thanks
Pascal

 Re: [Official] Firmware_PV73100_v7.4.x.r5440
Hi,
The previous beta (4585) had a very specific network problem . When I turn the player on it appears in the finder of my iMac in the same network, and everything works fine. I can copy files at a good speed. During or after copying a file from the iMac to the player, the player disappears from the finder. Only thing to fix it is to restart the player.
3966 does not have this bug.
Does it sound familiar, and do you know if it is fixed again in the new official firmware?
Thanks

 Re: [Official] Firmware_PV73100_v7.4.x.r5440
Preliminary test:
- Overall performance is better a bit. Tested on a movie that usually bogs down at certain points even though I've already put it in the internal HDD. And with the new firmware, it moved flawlessly (even when I turned the reduce digital noise feature on).
- Love the new sub menu in the main preference. Now all my subs are yellow without having to set it up every video file.
- Set up the FTP and there was a weird error that pops out when I entered the username and password.
- The problem with the previous beta is still there. Tried transferring from the Playon to my PC via FTP, after 10-15 seconds, the transfer halts and dead. The playon still works, but can not access via FTP again till playon is restarted. Tried restarting my Router and PC and same problem.
My Playon uses the 1073DD C+ board.
