[10 December 2011] C-300 Announcement, Specifications, UI Presentation, TFT Demo

[Mr.DJ]

Well, looking at my current C200...can I expect improvement to psu quality, LCD panel contrast readability and finally, do I still need to turn off my unit in order to stop the internal optical drive from spinning the inserted media? :-)

I'm also curious as to if I can expect the network streaming to be more stable with highbitrate bd rom files than current C200? Have still some issues with sudden skippy playback on certain BD files, that I currently only can solve by putting them on a ext. hdd and connect that directly to the usb port on the C200! And yes, I use 1Gb routers/switches(from Netgear and Cisco)! ;-)

I guess, I was also hoping to get closer to the teoretical 1000Megabit(1Gb)/8 = 125MegaByte limit with this generation...but with Werners max. measured performance of 26MegaByte....1Gb speeds seems to be pretty far away still! Darn it! :-(

Video showing the TFT in action added to first post.

Exactly. I use a Roku for VOD, and it does it really well. It and the PCH are designed for completely different things.

So viewing the new TFT screen straight on from about a foot away appears to be fuzzy and hard to read at times. Factor in viewing angles and real-life viewing distances, and once again the screen is useless.

Werner, how about posting a video of the screen from above looking down at a 45-degree angle?

Werner, in the NMJ demo 4 a few of your Movies have the wrong titles. Exam: Salt is showing up in the E's because it is labeled as Eagle Eye. This is just one, but there are a few more.

Hi,

for sure i can't read the text in NMJ List View from 3-5 meters away, but i can cleary see the coverart, on filebrowser i can see and read the text without a issue from 4 meters away.
About Viewing angle it is no issue on that TFT, added 6 photos i hope this answers your question

huh you have one already!?!? thats strange, you can't see something on the display because you still have the production firmware on it, the firmware will get released the coming week.

Werner,

is it possible that video in the startpost is made with a different firmware, because i see only the logo of the Network Media Jukebox and no other stuff?
