YES. Same with me.
C-200 subtitles OK, same files on A-300 no subtitles SRT.

Do a factory reset if you can not see srt subtitles.

I believe the only subtitles that this firmware affects are SD vibsub which are no longer displayed when internal in an MKV.

The only way to get them working again is by removing the power cable and putting it back in.

Does anytbody else have this problem because I'm stuck here.
Can I go back to the earlier firmware because that version worked.

Thanx in advance

Did you update your NMT Apps as well as the firmware? If you have NMT Apps installed then updating is a two step process.

The NMT apps aren't up-to-date but I can't get them updated because my disk inside the PCH is working like crazy for hours on end.
And if I try to install the new NMT update I get an installation failed error or an error saying that the nmt.apps file hasn't been found.

I have my PCH for 3 weeks now and I haven't had a day that it worked as it should.

Can I stop certain processes through telnet or something so I can start the update because that seesm to be the only thing that works all the time.

This is a little confusing.. if the apps aren't updated, nothing on that drive is running. you may want to start a separate thread for this one so more people can take a peak at what you have going on. something sounds very out of wack on your setup.

[AtariBaby]

hmm to update firmware or not? I'm reading people are having some issues in this thread!

[Willem53]

correction: it's not " people are having some issues" but "some people are having issues" and most of those are related to issues that existed before the upgrade but have become evident because of the upgrade.

Looking at the numbers I would say it's safe to update...

[AtariBaby]

Thanks for the sage encouragement Willem, and fair point on the grammar!

[halfelite]

and if all else fails you can always downgrade back

[wizzie]

After the firmware update I had also the problem with the subtitles. because i wanted to view the new episode from Continuum, i downgrade from a usb stick.
later i did the upgrade again. And after the upgrade a cold boot. Complete down till the ligth turns red. After restart the problems with the subtitle where gone. So no nee to go back to factory settings. otherwise you need to put down some settings again...
The transferspeed from my computer to the A300 is speed up from 12 Mb to 22 Mb. the pc is 3 months old, intel i7-2600 and a gigabit network. All cables. in the Popcorn is a WD 3Tb green disk, so not that much write speed...but performances well with Blu ray movies.
So i'm satisfied with the new speed. The other fixes i have to test.

Try disconnecting any HDD or USB device if you use any CSI or userapps. Then do a factory reset. then reboot. Then try a firmware update via USB. If you still get the same error then its RMA time as the player cannot write the firmware to NAND RAM.

OK, I'll try this!

I disconnected the NET, the keyboard and the the SPDIF, and managed this! The inside HDD it remained!

I think you are right - I still see some glitches with PGS subs in .MKV's but not as bad as with previous firmware.

Are the SD vibsubs from DVD's? All my internal usually are S_HDMV/PGS which are found on BD's and HD-DVD's. Anyway .SRT sub have ALWAYS been perfect for me. .SRT still perfect after last firm.

[nikos]

Must have been lost in translation somewhere? You MUST reset the PLAYER to Factor Defaults.

What has an ATV got to do with this firmware thread? Stop the stupid flaming comments we do not want any my toy is better than this toy immature comments please.

[harryvos]

New problem i have is no signal, do i press te stop button my siignal comes back.

And i thought the acryan updates where bad.....!
And yes i already made the factory reset...

Earlier I wrote that some java bluray iso's wouldn't play. I did some extensive testing and found out that these files don't play using NMJ2 and only in wall view mode. Via file browser or NMJ2 using list/category mode blurays play fine. My guess is that using the wall mode maybe the playing is taking up too much memory (memory leak?) and there's not enough left for java blurays? Myaby the devs can look into this?
