I have never had this issue occur. Lucky me.

Ich werde vielleicht deine Anleitung übersetzen! (I will probably translate your instructions).

Hi Steffen - it would be great if you could post instructions (I see that dasjournal will translate!).
I could never see the point in having an NTFS filesystem on a linux box, except for that USB slave "feature" which allowed you to plug in a laptop and treat the internal HDD as a drive on Windows.
ACRyan were not helpful in supporting an ext3 or etx4 partition for our media files in place of the NTFS. I suspect there are many functions "hard-wired" in the code which expect the NTFS partition to be present. I too, have had several issues where files have become corrupted - typically DVD ISO files which change from being GBs in length to being zero bytes! As such I could not trust the filesystem to safely store my video and audio collection, so I have been waiting for firmware stability improvements.

At this point I have lost my faith in the firmware - whether it is due to Realtek SDK issues or poor programming standards. I have sourced an MSI AMD Fusion mini-ITX motherboard and mini case in the past couple of days and have loaded OpenElec XBMC firmware on it. With a USB DVB-T tuner I now have a working PVR with decent EPG information and flexible recording and most of all have a proper indexing capability for audio and video files with excellent support for FLAC image files, tagging information works properly. There are a couple of minor issues with Dolby true HD and DTS HD bitstream but there is an active support team in xbmc working on these - no Realtek SDK here! I can certainly re-use the 2TB HDD from the ACRyan and possibly the tuner (if it's PCI-e).

Another good thinking from fat tony.
It looks like this FW vent to vaporware area...
Nobody even bothers to read this (unpleasant) topic...

except users who were stoopid enough to buy one of these devices and now are hoping that history does not repeat itself and that somehow the new firmware is going to be perfectly stable and unicorns are going to come out of the player and dance and make us all happy ...

i mean im still on the 8.3.something firmware and quite happy with it, but each time my player reboots because it has reached the last song in the folder, a piece of my soul dies ...

Im not 100% sure, but i believe I had the same problems with my external usb hdd which is at all times connected to the playondvrhd and that one is ext3 ...

New firmware friday 30 December 2011 or June 2012?

Personally I'd like to see on the second date as last year

Still no new firmware ...how long must we wait......Sao Liao la

[Beta] Firmware_Playon!HD Mini2_PV73800_v9.5.5.r6629 ?????????
[Beta] Firmware_Playon!HD2_PV73700_v9.5.3.r6629 ????????

Why why why?????

Wake up wake up do something .

I hope acryan fix their bug as responsive as banning me and delete my post within 6 hours ( after i warn peoples not to install this firmware after i lost 6 of my iso file ) .

yet . I'd like to suggest the following to acyran

Make a poll regarding gui1 vs gui2
Make a poll from customer's complain ( sure helpful for acryan understand which bug need to pay more attention )

I recheck this post 3 times already to make sure if any reason offend to acryan or reason to ban me again for suggestion without spamming this time .
