Well, I bought if for BD playback of backups to my Hard drive. It does play them, but it will not play the menus. It does know how to play the files as one movie (some BD have their movies broken into pieces, thus your player might not know how to playback the movie as a whole if you just try the biggest file). What it does is just play the movie when you select the folder (I have not tried ISOs) and you can select from their menu (Egreat's, not the movie's) what other sections of the 'disc' you want to play. Another thing is it play and can downmix the DTS-HDMA disc backups fine but does not know how to play Dolby Digital TrueHD disc backups. I thought that it could but the manual does not mention TrueHD.

When a TrueHD movie plays, it say unknown audio format. I do not have an receiver that can decode DTS-HDMA or TrueHD, so I can't test if it can pass it through.

In the menu, there is a HDMI passthrough option though. I'll test some more when I get a wireless dongle.

Maybe the best Realtek player in the market. Aluminum case (same as the Egreat 34A), fanless, has A LOT of outputs (HDMI, component, composite, LAN, 2USB, optical, coaxial, sata, esata) You can see videos on youtube. Some nice photos Firmware has the Realtek pluses (excellent subtitle features including PGS and the ability to use any subtitle font you want!, bluray.iso support with no original menus though, 24/96 audio not capped at 48 like the sigma based players.) and minuses (no trueHD and dtsHDMA bitstreaming, buggy network, horrible gui.). Also has DVD CSS support (it reads genuine DVDs if you connect a dvdrom). @GotHDTV Does it have proper 23,976fps (24p) out? Other Realtek based players have problems with that. I've had one of these for a few weeks now, my observations: Playback of both 720p and 1080p mkvs is really good.

Dvd iso playback with full menus has been flawless, also reads the ifo file if it's not an image file. Playback of AVCHD iso works perfectly also. Being able to reposition/resize subs on the fly is great. Some people have said that their's runs very hot, however, even when playing pack 1080p mkvs mine has remained very cool.

My only real bugbear is with occasional freezing followed by re-booting when browsing video files. This is with preview on or off. It still tries to get info about the file whether you have preview on or off, and it is at this point that it sometimes freezes. Waiting for about a minute the unit re-boots.

The remote still allows you to turn the unit off without waiting however. One other weird thing that happens to me is when copying over network.

Using samba it miss-reports the size of the file that you have copied, and then will not play the file. If I then connect the drive (western digital elements 1tb) directly to my pc it all appears to be fine, and then when re-connected to the egreat it works! Overall though, bugs I can deal with.

The lastest firmware (although 3 weeks old; released 11-18-09) says that it fixed the rebooting problem. That firmware is EG-R1_ Drivers License In American Samoa here. 1.0.2.3 and I put the firmware link in the first post. I know when I got mine, it had version EG-R1_1.0.1.1. Hope that helps.

Hope that helps Hi GotHDTV?, Thanks for your reply but unfortunately I've got the latest firmware and still have the same problem. It only ever happens when browsing though, never when actually playing back a file. I've tried eliminating either the network or the usb drive but still it persists. I don't see anyone else with the same trouble as me though! One way I found to get around it though was to press the home button rather than the stop button. This then avoids the file being read again. Originally Posted by markor hello any ideas, steps, review how to see EGR1 on my local network.

I'm assume your talking Wi-Fi because you say there is a password. Is your password WEP, WPA + TKIP, WPA2 + TKIP, etc.?

Also, like I said in the post before, if your SSID is hidden, you have to unhide it first. Got one for a month, I use it mostly for 24X7 BT/PT download and DVD ISO playing. All the 720 and 1080 vedio I have downloaded plays perfectly with R1. As the telnet is open, I can install any linux packages I want like ftp, samba and tranmission. BT download is very slow but PT is pretty good.

I grabbed a lot of my kid's DVDs to ISO files by PC and copy them to R1's hard disk, it's really very convenient to play DVD isos with it. I used a WD 1T hard disk and plugged it directly to R1 with SATA cable, works perfectly. NTFS is not very stable for BT/PT and sometimes crashes. I formated the disk with EXT3 format, after that PT is more stable but still auto reboot every 1-2 days. Originally Posted by GotHDTV? Well, I bought if for BD playback of backups to my Hard drive.

I hit the file copy over samba bug also, but it's very strange after I copied more files the miss-reported size issue disappeared by itself.

R1 is really a bit slow when browse files, but it never reboot on my box. Maybe because I'm using EXT3 and I'm running the latest version? FYI, on Dec 26th a new version firmware is released which fixed a lot of bugs(maybe introduced more, lol).

It also officially support network stream video watching now.

I'm on 1.0.2.3 Release Date:2009-11-18. I don't see a newer version on their site, do you have a link? Nobody else appears to have my 'freezing during browsing' problem which makes it a tough one to solve.

I'm using an external usb hd, and it also happens over network. Perhaps my R1 is special! Playback is always faultless though. Might try a sata drive in the future.

I'm running the save version as yours, I'm waiting for the feedback of the guinea pigs(just kidding) who have installed the new firmware. The new verison can be downloaded at: I don't know whether it's a Chinese language only firmware or not.

I suggest you'd better confirm with EG support first before upgrading the firmware. Originally Posted by jerrywums I'm running the save version as yours, I'm waiting for the feedback of the guinea pigs(just kidding) who have installed the new firmware.

Thanks, I might give this a go. I'm relatively brave/stupid! Plus you can force the roll back to an older firmware with the reset trick that involves shorting a switch on the pcb. I've tried the new firmware, and although it doesn't solve my freezing problem, a few new features have been added.

Youtube, weather reports etc all present and currently working. I thought I was the only person with the freezing problem, but it turns out I'm not. I found this review on Amazon.com; 'I have this EG-R1 NMT for 3 days. It is the worst experience I ever had after purchasing a stuff. The item is a media player which connects to an external hard drive.

However, this item keeps freeze and reset while I am browsing the video file list. After working with the seller back and forth many times, the problem is still not resolved. I think this product is not either stable or mature enough to be a commercial product. I am sick and tired to do testing and debugging for the manufacturer. I am attaching the conversation between me and the seller for your reference.

Let's just hope I can get my money back. Me: The EG-R1 keeps freeze while I am parsing the movie list on HDD. I can not use it at all because of this issue.

What should I do? Seller: Thank you for your inquiry! The behavior is consistent with too many files in the root directory. We suggest organizing media files into several directories. ONMP USA Me: Thanks for your reply. However, the folder which I have problem is not the root directory and there are only 20 video files in that directory. Seller: There could be many non-media files (including corrupted, hidden and system ones) interfering with the media file search.

Me: I removed all srt subtitle files from the folder. Also I make sure there are no other files 6 avi files and 1 mkv files in this folder. All these files are playable on PC. But I still have the freeze problem EVERY time I parse the folder in EG-R1. Every time it freezes, several seconds later, it restart itself. To me, EG-R1 is totally unusable.

Seller: Please try EG-R1 with another USB media. The current USB media may need re-formatting. Me: FYI, it is not a USB HD.

It is a brand new 1.5 TB SATA drive I just purchased from Amazon. I connected it to EG-R1 with sATA interface. Seller: Was the (e)SATA disk formatted by EG-R1?

I have a similar setup with 1TB eSATA and 1TB USB HDD's formatted for NTFS. Me: Yes the 1.5 TB SATA HD was formatted by EG-R1. Seller: We plan to test EG-R2A and EG-R1 with 1.5TB or 2TB HDD this week. We suspect SATA HDD needs to be NTFS formatted and then with a player. Me: I do not think the bug is related to big SATA hard drive. I have noticed that if I press button very slow, for example, press scroll down at least 3 seconds after last time pressing scrolling down, it is probably OK. It is definitely a UI bug.

I am sick and tired to do testing and debugging for EGREAT. I demand a refund!'

Well he's more upset than I am! I'm just pleased that the playback is rock solid! Originally Posted by jerrywums I have a suggestion about the browse file issue. I also feel the file browse is too slow even the previewed is turned off. I end up creating a folder for each video file with the same folder name. Then it's very fast to browse the folders. Thanks for the suggestion jerrywums.

That's what I do as well, as you say it speeds up browsing considerably. Doesn't stop mine freezing and rebooting every now and then though. By the way, the firmware you pointed me to seems pretty solid. Watched a film tonight with no issues. It's not in chinese only either if you want to try it.

I updated the first post to reflect the firmware. Where did you find it? I was hoping that you could just FTP browse, but it looks like I could not. It also looks like it got 10MB lighter as all other firmwares are around 38MB while this one is 28MB.

I recently purchased a Sony BDP-S560 blu ray player. I knew nothing about DLNA until reading the manual for the player.

DLNA sounds like a great concept and everything in the manual and online makes it sound like the easiest thing in the world to set up. I even found video about a bravia TV that has the same menu style as the S560. This video shows DLNA being setup in a matter of seconds. I have tried Tveristy, Twonky and myiHome DLNA server software with no luck. I have tried with the player setup up with a WiFi connection as well as hard wired with an ethernet cable. I have set up my antivirus software to allow all connections throught the ports the various software used.

I have forwarded the ports on my linksys router. The S560 can see the computer as evidenced when I get into the 'Connection Server Settings' screen. I see the MAC address of my desktop computer running the server software. However, when I run 'Network Diagnostics' I keep getting a 'failed' indication. Also under the photo, video and music tabs all I see is the MAC address of my computer and not an indication that the player is connected to the server software.

I cannot access any media on the computer. I would appreciate any help anyone has. DLNA sounds like a great idea and I would love to able to take advantage of this capability of the S560 but DLNA certainly isn't as easy to set up as everything indicates. Thank you, Brian.

Poggy, I bought mine on Amazon.com. It was $25 cheaper than anywhere else. Plus I have Amazon Prime so I got free shipping and no tax. 007Shark, I will try that software later today.

My computer is hard wired and I have tried the player both ways. I was hoping hard wiring it would solve the problem but it didn't. UPDATE: I have now gotten the player to connect to Twonky server but when I click on the Twonky server under the photos section of the player I get a yellow triangle and a message that says 'No Photo.' Even though I have plenty of photos that Twonky Media Server sees. I also have a 560.

I use Windows Media player 11, finally got connected, wireless. Questions, did you get the wireless part working (look on Sony's website in FAQ on how to set it up) Sony's site is lacking in info on more advanced issues. Then look on Windows site on how to set up the media player part. This should help you.

Now my questions. All I can send to the player is pictures, no mp3s or MOV or anything else. Reading the fine print in the players user manual it sayes that it does not do mp3s.

Kind of dumb not too. Got the connection there, why not take advange of it.

Under the Sony menu, it sayes music and Video. Why doesn't it work? Anybody got any ansers? I recently purchased a Sony BDP-S560 blu ray player. I knew nothing about DLNA until reading the manual for the player.

'Network Connection Diagnostics' states 'Correct connection to the network can be confirmed', but no server appears under 'Connection Server settings'. I have tried Twonky and have just installed Tversity (after uninstalling Twonky) but can't get either to work. Have clicked on 'update server list' but nothing appears. My desktop PC is hardwired to my router (Linksys WRT54GC ver 2.0). I have ensured that my firewall (Comodo Pro) is set up to allow the media server to accept incoming connections.

But S560 still doesn't see the Tversity server! I just don't know what i am doing wrong. I am new to this DLNA thing and it is seriously doing my head in!! I have been at this all day!! Can anybody help or suggest in simple terms what i try next.
