a300 working great. What next?

a300 working great. What next?
Hi all,
After a few bumps and bashes I've finally got my A300 working well.

My setup is;
A300, connected wirelessly to lan using a WN-160. 2TB internal hdd.
Windows 7 PC
I am downloading torrents onto my PC, then moving them to the A300 before watching 'em.

I was having wireless connection issues, which seem fixed now, but I've not tried video streaming since the fix. I'm happy copying movie files for now.

I'm not very impressed by NMJ (in its defence, I've only just started using it). I was hoping for a nice tiled view of movies. I always seem to be browsing down through to the same folders, which is going to get real boring real quick.

What should I do next to get the most out of my A300?
Is the built in torrent app worth using?
I had a quick look at YAMJ, got it working, then gave up when I saw the generated html file. The A300 is flash only, right? Did I give up too early? Is YAMJ popular with a300 users?
Are there other jukebox software that will work on the A300 in a Windows network?
thanks

Sounds like you have also given up on NMJv2 early, if you select the Wall view, of the three view options available, you get exactly what you want. A view of tiled covers to select from.

I would always recommend using NMJv2Toolbox as it is far quicker to amend then using the A300 remote, plus its 100% whereas sometimes downloading etc. can be hit/miss with the NMJv2 edit facility.

Do also try YAMJ with Eversion as suggested.

A400: SSD+SD Card(Apps), HDMI A300: USB(Apps), HDMI C200: USB(Apps), BD SH-B083L(SB01), HDMI
CAT6 Wired Network: TV TX-P42G20, HP ProCurve 1400-8G, Netgear GS-608/605, Synology CS407
