Using this version I get an "IO Error" message on the screen while watching content. What does this error message mean? Is it related to this new firmware. I never had this in the past.

There's still a little bug with the focus.

Current:
01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08
09 10 11 12 13 14 15 [16]

Now press the right arrow.
The result:
17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24
[25] 26 27

Should be:
[17] 18 19 20 21 22 23 24
25 26 27

Another problem with navigate back.

Last page with one row:
[17] 18 19 20 21

The result after pressing left arrow:
01 02 03 04 05 06 07 [08]
09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16

Should be:
01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08
09 10 11 12 13 14 15 [16]

What version of the Media Player do you have? 600? 800 or 1000?

Big Bug.

When you use flash iptv channel the mede8er hangs,freezes, sometimes reset... And change many options in the configuration; time and hour, language preferences on the videos... a disaster..


And please.. we need to see the track name of the subtitles/audios no only the language.

Flash iptv links do not work and have never worked. This is not a bug. There is no specification that the mede8er will support flash iptv links.

One thing is flash iptv not working and another very different to cause a complete destabilization of the system with a device misconfiguration. Think before you write buddy.

And when you say: "There is no specification that the mede8er will support flash iptv links." Pherhaps u are a weird communist consumer without ambition to improve... But We are trying to get a better device; no need scabs.

Another bug:

When you play a mkv with 2 tracks, 1.AC3  2. DTS, Mede8er always plays the dts even though the mkv file has been created with ac3 track as track preferred. When only are 2 ac3 tracks, choose fine the preferred track.


Im pretty sure that Mede8erforum is working to give the best solutions to us, the customers, and Im very satisfied to have this opportunity to convey questions and problems to a team that is always working to improve.

thnks!

p.s.: And please.. we still need to see the track name of the subtitles/audios no only the language.

IPTV is working. Flash IPTV links are not working.
I just mention it is NOT in the original specifcation of the device. Why would you create a bug report for a function what does not excist in the device? This is not a bug report but a feature request.

In the specs sheet IPTV is metioned like this:
V3 Firmware is equipped with the latest IP Streaming App functionality, IP streaming will allow you to stream content from the internet or share your video's and home video's via cloud services with family and friends who also own X3D's.

If you did some more exploring you would have find the original firmware specs when IPTV was introducted.
In the original release ( http://www.mede8erforum.com/index.php/topic,12019.msg78594.html august 22, 2013) Mede8er allready mentioned flash IPTV links are NOT supported.:

IPTV Functionality within the Mede8er does open some new opportunities and we are currently doing some real exciting streaming tests from Maasbommel's NAS in his study. I wont steal his thunder as I am sure he can explain this a lot better than me and some posts to follow.

You can edit or add your own channels easily by opening the .iptv file in notepad++ and just changing the Name and the Link.

We do not support flash type links and the links that work best are
1. http/ HLS type ie they end with .m3u8
2. http UDP type
3. rtmp

I Repeat: One thing is flash iptv not working and another very different to cause a complete destabilization of the system with a device misconfiguration.   READ and Think before you write buddy.

Anyway...  I'm not here to talk out with you, unless you are the owner of the company as you think... 
This part of the forum is to give information to be valued by the company, not you. Im going to talk to the fantastic med8er team, I have no desire to continue talking to you. Is absolutely useless. But say the last word buddy if make you feel better

bug:

When you play a mkv with 2 tracks, 1.AC3  2. DTS, Mede8er always plays the dts even though the mkv file has been created with ac3 track as track preferred. When only are 2 ac3 tracks, choose fine the preferred track.



thnks!!!

Zed85 is making the general point that bug exists only when the player dosnt work as designed. A bug dosnt exist just because you expect something different. In general media player chips are just bd player chips, and they avoid issues using front end blocking based on mime and codec profiles. There is no control once the media is sent to the codec chip.....if it chokes on the media the player crashes or hangs.  Users have to learn what plays and what doesn't.

Also if the GUI has its own controls for selecting audio tracks its not a bug if its designed to ignore other ways of selecting audio tracks that a particuler user might prefer. All users are free to say they do prefer something different, but even if desirable it may not be possible due to realtek limitations in both hardware and software.

All users are free to say they do prefer something different, but even if desirable it may not be possible due to realtek limitations in both hardware and software.

Well.. In many many bd players, multimedia players.... if you trying maybe to check it or maybe by mistake play a file and that player dont work with that file for many reasons, the player show a error message. Thats happen with all, ALL players, That its normal.  The anomalous its that the player no only crash, but also lost all the configuration. If for you that its a normal behavior in a electronic equipment..., you should ask why does not happen with any other brand.

You say: "Also if the GUI has its own controls for selecting audio tracks its not a bug if its designed to ignore other ways of selecting audio tracks"

If you think that, maybe you should talk with the technical team to erase the option "Match audio with OSD" Because DONT WORK. And too talk with your partner "Mede8er1" who said about that  "Match audio with OSD":

 " If you set OSD Language to French (example) we try to default to the French audio track. Our engineers have implemented this new functionality"

That was in 2012, time enough to fix it, and if Didnt.. I do not need your permission to call it "Bug".
A bug dosnt exist just because you want that dosnt exist buddy.
Global Moder8or have to learn what says and what doesn´t.

Something isn't a bug just because you want the player to do something different. I don't need your permission to point that out.

I pointed out that the technology used prevents play errors by limiting what can played before they get to the point of play. A rip player can't control what is played, largely because the filters controlling it can be circumvented because some users want to see if anything can play, even if it crashes when it can't be played.

Tools keep getting added which allow more access to  media that that might not conform to expected encoding.  You get flexibility at the risk of unreliability....if the user trys unreliable sources.

If you want reliability try a disk p!ayer that can only play retail optical disk. Controlling media quality at the front end is the best way to avoid issues, even if it drastically reduces what you can play.


The person I responded to wanted mkv preferences to control  what track is used. He never mentioned forcing anything by language. If that was your problem you should say so.


You where the one who used inflammatory language in objecting to zed85 trying to be helpful by explaining  the issues.  The success of the forum is based on people being willing to do that.  It dosnt  help to encourage that if those posting find some reason to take offence. Whose going to answer your posts if you don't want a response from  mods or fellow members?
