You never told him what you meant by 'dog' just that it was the fault of your latest gadget. You know what they say 'a poor workman.....................'

I have no clue myself. I probably meant contact dhl.

Hope we'll get full BR-Navigation for the A210, too, with the next firmware.

Good job!

If the A-200 has full BR navigation, why wouldn't the A-210. Do you have it turned on in the setup.

My unit is in Cincinnati, OH. About 200 miles from me. That was quick, Shipped from Hong Kong yesterday and in the mid east of the USA today.

A210 has only "Simple BD" - That feature only plays the main movie - you can't select options out of the full BD-menu. But with the A300 you can

Are you sure, the A-200 can play full BR. Check you setup and make sure it not set for simple. I have mine set for "Prompt" that way when you start the movie you can select which option you want.

They allowed the A-200 to play full BD in a firmware update, confirmed since I have 2 of them. I'd assume the A-210 is the same way.

Yours is with mine then, mine hasn't left OH yet, I don't know if it will update now until Monday. Mine has to go to Romulus MI and then to me in Troy MI. I'm thinking more like Tuesday.

[jonthomasdesigns]

Mine is in NYC going to Mass ... Wow that is Fast ! From Hong Kong to NYC in a couple days

Any Reason Not to Use a WD Black Drive ? other than Noise maybe ... I see in the Wiki you recommended a green drive but i just replaced a 2TB WD Black with a 3 TB Seagate and was going use the Black drive in the A-300

Do you think the minimal Added heat could hurt the A-300 ? I doubt it but figured i would check

I can't complain about that since it was in Hong Kong yesterday. I was thinking more like a week or two once it was shipped.

Of course UPS delivers on saturdays here in the US. They even have a service called "Saturday Delivery".

You're right, thanks for the hint - i missed the latest firmware update for A210.
And there it is: Full BD Navigation - LOL - It's like to have a new player.
Well, then I can return my A300 again on Monday...

[frustin]

I'm upgrading from an A-100.

my source files are on a QNAP raid unit which I stream over wireless downstairs.

I trust i'll still get the jukebox stuff?

I guess that would make more sense. I don't know that much about DHL,
I've haven't used them that much.

The thing that gets me is we are discussing the USA and the flag by his name is from Costa Rica, I just assumed that the flag displayed was the country of the posting.

Whatever, mine should be here by Tuesday and I'm happy with that!
