Topic: Xtreamer Media Player and Streamer

[raptor]

Which HDD high def media player ba ang confirmed na capable of DTS-HD/MA, TrueHD passthough?

Sir, this feature has long been working on TVIX M6500 ... i've tested TrueHD earlier this year, and DTS-HD when I was reviewing the Xtreamer - I think it was the Sony demo blu-ray rip that has the DTS-HD audio ... confirmed on actual use, not just on paper

Thanks Raptor.  Tignan natin feedback ng some members owning various media players after they actually test some of the files I got.

raptor sure that Xtreamer plays DolbyTrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio?  I am still not successful with these features with the Xtreamer. It just downmixes the audio to standard Dolby Digital and DTS.  I still use my egreat m34a for these HD audio streams.

Sir, OT BUT i'm referring to the TVIX on my post above referring to Clondalkin's question ... for Xtreamer, it's only downmixing that I tested working

Does it perform upscaling to 1080p?

[Paulusreef]

Guys

Pwede bang pahiga yung xstreamer? yung wifi antenna naiikot ba?

tnx!

[DYC]

Yes naiikot yun wifi.

[Bitstream]

Does it perform upscaling to 1080p?

Yes it does.

[f_three]

can i use this on LCD monitor only?

[ditoy_eagle]

Of course yes, best if LCD monitor has hdmi. but sound will be small for LCD monitors so route your sound to better speakers or to your AV receiver if you have a system

Hi kabibili ko lang ng xtreamer last week, and i was wondering kung talagang mahirap i lagay ung 2.5" sata hdd sa loob?...  pare parehas lang ba  ung input ng mga 2.5 sata disk ....kaso parang ayaw pumasok.  kakatakot namang pilitin baka masira lang.  Tulong lang po.  para at least magamit ko ung HDD nung sirang laptop ng mom ko.  hitachi 250 gig 5400 rpm... galing sa Hp dv2735tx na laptop.  thanks in advance.

[Alfie]

Your HDD should be SATA not IDE..(it's just because you posted it's your Mom's old Laptop Hitachi 250g 5400rpm)

and yes....Mahirap, kailangan exacto....pero pag pumasok...ayos na ayos.

[MaCMeL]

@tapyok,

It would be better if you could check the model number of the Hitachi HDD to make sure that it is a normal 2.5 SATA. You could post it out here and I'll try to help you find moe info about your HDD

That's right.  The connectors at the rear end should look like this:



@tapyok: Assuming it is SATA, did you peek inside to see if you were inserting the HDD in the correct orientation?

[jetro]

assuming its a SATA disk (use lgfan's posted pic as guide) and the orientation is correct, medyo may effort nga to connect the disk. with each try, ibahin mo ng konti angle, imagine that you are aligning the pins with each try.... konti konti... when you find the right alignment, you should be able to push it in with little effort.

[tapyok]

Thanks sa reply.... sata ung sakin, kaso hindi sya pwede, ung input nung hdd ng mom ko eh ung parang nasa loob xtreamer mismo kaya i'll buy 1 tb wd elements tom. thanks ulit!!!!

[Paulusreef]

May lumalabas na sa inoy na white lining sa right side pag nasa menu? sa firmware kaya yun? nagupdate ako nung latest eh.

[2RM]

First time ko maga-update  ng firmware. Do I have to install all the previous version or yung latest lang? Thanks.

Master Thread Starter!  Merry Christmas po.

From what I know, you may install the latest one directly.  I went from 2.1.1 to 2.1.3, skipping 2.1.2 altogether.

[zevenpac]

I am getting 5.1 on all except DTS.  I just installed the latest FW.  Still the same.  Any suggestions?

Patulong din po regarding 5.1 audio. I connected the Xtreamer to my AVR (Denon 887) via HDMI cable. HDMI audio and 5.1 DTS are turned ON. Some of my files are detected by the AVR as 5.1 (DD,DTS) while some are not (note: i checked these files as having 5.1 channels in VLC media player). Input is set to AUTO on the AVR. Kapag 2 CH lang nade-detect, lumalabas sa avr is DIRECT. I tried using PCM, but still the same. My firmware version is 2.1.3.

Is there a setting on the avr that I missed? Should I use an optical cable instead for the audio? Weird lang kse OK naman yung output ng ibang files ko.

Some files that are detected as 2-CH only are The.Dark.Knight.2008.720p.BluRay.DTS.x264-ESiR and King Kong 2005 Extended Cut 720p BluRay-3Li.

Maraming Salamat po at Maligayang Pasko!!!

What happens if you set your DENON to DTS 5.1 (instead of AUTO)?

[zevenpac]

Thanks for the reply. No sound at all if I set to DTS. 

[Bitstream]

Thanks for the reply. No sound at all if I set to DTS. 

Pls try/consider the ff:

1. Turn off HDMI audio on the Xtreamer, then try using an optical cable for the digital surround audio. Set your AVR to Auto.  Try it on DTS 5.1 also.  If it works, try replacing your HDMI cable then try again (turn on HDMI audio on the Xtreamer first)

2.  If the audio streams of the same files are consistently unable to be recognized by the AVR, please consider that there may be a problem with the encode

3.  If you have some files that are consistently able to send DTS 5.1 to the AVR, it reinforces the suspicion about  No. 2

4. Check out forum.xtreamer.net for assistance/suggestions from the worldwide community

I used an optical cable and some of my DTS files worked.    Other files, however, are still not recognized by the AVR as 5.1. 

I will try to downgrade my firmware and test.

Guys,

Yung latest firmware ng Xtreamer ba na-disable na yung YouTube?  Wag na sana tanggalin.
