Thank you.

Just heard that these are now in our shores. Can anyone confirm if the usual resellers have these already in stock?

Watts Hi Fi in Makati Cinema Square already have it.

Saw them also in some shops in Vmall for 8.5k per unit.

ok ba itong model na ito? 5,999 in yugadeals.com

mura yan, sa 6K, it lists 8500, grab, group buy yan, consolidated orders then one time order.
1185 chip yan.
-
Mura talaga! Just went to yugadeals now. Nakakatempt hehe
-
got one from yugadeals, my streamer is broken...
-
any reviews? sana available pa by november.
-
very tempting yung yugadeals
-
Ok sana yugadeals kaso first 20 lang yata kaya nila accomodate at that price. When I checked yesterday the count was already at 28. Baka di din ako mabigyan so decided to wait na lang.
;)

pano mo malalaman kapag okay yung sa yugadeals? nagdeposit nako at confirmed na nila, ibig ba sabihin nun okay na yun?
-
I just love the stability of the old MED500X ...... this X2 model should be even better, with 1185 (which I can attest, provides a very nice PQ) & USB3.0 slave.
However, one small item that I just wish that MEDE8ER incorporate soon is a sturdy mobile HDD rack.
-
already got the voucher from yugadeals, called the supplier at di pa daw available yung unit. will try to call them again next week.

By mobile did you mean 2.5" hdd or a hot-swappable tray? I don't suggest the hot-swappable as my player's sata connector wore down after a while. So I had to resort to usb.
-
^ Ouch, there should be SATA connectors available in some electronic shops .... or order some online, if it's worth it.
HDD mobile trays, similar to the one on the PCH C200, EGREAT R200, etc. I want this feature, more for my non-techie relatives (seniors) who'll appreciate the ease in replacing HDD's.
Also, even if docks/trays are hot-swappable, I would never recommend replacing components with power still on.
-

try to check status of your deposit if confirmed na. or better yet call ehome store in annapolis gh. sila yun supplier. got mine this afternoon.
-
oks chief, confirmed na yung deposit eh. tumawag ako nung umaga wala pa daw. kunin ko nalang bukas or next week nalang siguro.

+1 this is true unless NAS rated yung connectors mo. same is true with docks.
most techies i know simply like their disks outside of the unit to fend off heat from disks. so eSATA/USB docks are popular to that crowd.
Other prefer that the internal disk option (removable disks) is there to begin with so if/when they need to the option is there readily.
either way, the point is to get more disks into your players if/when you need to. i personally like dual and quad docks which i can power on only when i need access to more libraries.
Med500x2 owners, enjoy your players :)
-
I've tested several times sa ehome, mas mabagal ang reaction time when clicking to any features, wala na din yung option to quickly go to a particular time ng movie by pressi the numbers in the remote, you now have to press " go to" then the time. Even them finds the new med8er slower.
-
if that's the case, can be due to the X2 UI, coz 1185 chip itself is 20% faster and cooler (temp wise) over the 1073. YAMJ pa din ba siya?

Give it time. Firmware is relatively new. As for navigation, I think you should call them and ask if there's an easier way or consult the manual. I doubt the "go to" is the only way to navigate, given Mede8er's track record.

Bro, what do you mean by "Deal has ended and then you say Deal is on"? Maybe yugadeals.com will raise by a thousand the price after the first set of units sold at 6thou. sana maging 6.5thou man lang
-
Sayang! Wala na bang deal????
-
may nakapagtry na ba ng internal 3tb dito? specifically WD30EZRX model? 6.8k nalang sya eh, balak ko ilagay kay MED500X2.

all NMT 1185 supports 3TB, pero there are some who CANNOT SUPPORT SATA III. so be careful.
best way to test before buying is to get the 3TB get full to the brim, and plug to your NMT.

Is this better than Popcorn Hour A-300? What are the differences?

Is this better than Popcorn Hour A-300? What are the differences?
Realtek 1185 is MED500X2 while the popular predecessor -- MED500 is 1073
1185 is 20% faster(chip), 20% cooler(chip).
from what i gather medjo bagal pa yung new interface ni 500X2 over MED500 so its not the chip that's causing it. Firmware lang yan so expect the UI to improve and mature over time.
Sigma of A300 is likewise 20% faster (chip), but I dont think its any cooler as sigma 86xx are known workhorse.

Deal has ended means it is finished. Deal is on means it met the required minimum purchase for the deal to push through.

Thanks sir for the info. Sa tpc ko lang nakita yung 3TB eh, di ko lang sigurado kung pwede itest. For med500x2 users, may nakapagtry na ba ng 3TB?

Version 2 of the firmware is out! Upgrading went smoothly. UI seems more responsive though there are a few caveats.
-
To Med500X2 users, pano ba gamitin yung favourites? I have movies from different HDDs and is it possible to have a single view for all movies? Hindi yung seperate paren per drives.

I think you will end up with two separate favourite folders with your scenario. A new manual is out too. http://www.mede8er.com/images/USER_INSTRUCTIONS/Mede8er_med500x2_user_rev5.0.6_21Nov2011.pdf

Up close and personal...
its on latest firmware already. one quick question, can anybody help me, i can't get the unit to detect my etrayz, under upnp it will only recognized two folders the torrents and the iTunes folders, my contents are not saved there.
second, trying to make an nfs share between the two was unsuccessful, i can't get the path right i think or is there something i have to do with the etrayz settings as well?
-
Hi. I'll try to take a wing at it. Can you post or PM ip address of your etrayz and 500X2?
Have you checked if the NFS on the etrayz is enabled? Usually you have to turn on that service if you're on a NAS.
-
guys may 32% off sa med500x2 sa yugadeals. 7,490 na lang may kasama ng wifi and wireless keyboard. check niyo :) http://yugadeals.com/

Can someone help me out, I am trying to transfer files from the internal HDD to free up space and move some from my external hdd, thru my laptop but it seems the unit's driver cannot auto load to my laptop and recognize the connection. Is this because my laptop's usb port is only at 2.0 while that of mede8er is at 3.0 already? Anything I have done not right?

USB 3 should be downward compatible. From my experience with players, you should turn on the unit while the usb is plugged in. If you've already done that, you can probably try a USB 2.0 cable. Sometimes if a drive cannot be connected, you should try disk management from windows. If all else fails, call the shop where you bought the product for assistance.

500x2 can transfer/copy/move/delete file from its internal hdd to external hdd w/out using laptop or computer.simply go to the file you want to copy then press EDIT from the remote of 500x.just follow the instructions on the OSD.

Hello po.
Where can we buy the keyboard and wi-fi dongle for the Med500X2?
Also, is anybody here having problems with the HDD inside your Med500X2 when connected via USB3 on your laptop? My 500X2's HDD can not be detected and my computer will show "not responding". Although, the 500X2 can play the files on the HDD without problem. I just don't have any way to transfer files to the 500X2 anymore because of this problem.

Have you tried plugging it in and running a partition editor or partition management? Hopefully it's just a corrupted partition.

Guy better go back to FW Ver 2.0.4. Version 2.0.6 has a bug in it which causes files to be converted to folders. Check the Mede8er forum. The company actually recommends downgrading.

I think best thing to do is get a handful of your "best" animes and test it in a shop. Sort of an audition, but for players :)

+1 there are a few cases sa anime that just wont show all sub formats. Para di ka disappointed sa planned by mo, test mo thoroughly. ready mo folder mo of all samples and test mo sa VLC, if its shows in VLC, it should show sa player.

meron ba 600x3d and 800x3d users na cdrking wifi dongle ? ;D

Any wifi dongle with Realtek chipset 8191su should work. I'm using a generic dongle from Amazon worth $6. AFAIK, Cdr-King has a dongle with that chipset but it's hard to find.

+1 , better na hanap ka ng maikli or low profile, yung di nakalawit sa unit. kasi hassle yung mahabang old school wifi dongle, twice na ako nabasagan dahil sa maling pag usog(well katamaran din mag tanggal before a move :) )
