Dune HD Center

[janek_pl 15]

Jeszcze nowe playery Dune BD Prime i HD Center nie pojawiły się w sprzedaży, a już pojawiła się nowa wersja soft, która co najważniejsze [b]odtwarza backup-y blu-ray. [/b]


Zainteresowani znają już test z MPC więc dla nich nowości jakie wprowadzono w nowym sofcie:

- Added support for playback of Bluray folders.
- Press PLAY on a folder with Bluray disk structure (the folder must
contain "BDMV" subfolder) to play it.
- Bluray menus are supported.
- BDJ is supported.
- NOTE: Folders only are supported so far; ISO images are not supported yet (may be supported in future, but not fully sure yet)
- NOTE: Good media read performance is needed for playback of most Bluray disks, especially high-bitrate ones. Read speed must exceed the maximum bitrate with a good reserve. USB HDD is suitable, NFS may be suitable depending on network/server, SMB is not suitable in most cases.
- Test results:
- Kinds of performed tests:
- Dune's built-in file read test (to check network
throughput).
- Playback of BD1: bitrate peaks greater than 40 Mbit/s.
- Playback of BD2: continuous bitrate regions greater than
45 MBit/s.
- NTFS USB HDD:
- Read test: ~20 MB/sec.
- BD1: OK.
- BD2: OK.
- 100Mbit Ethernet, NFS, x86/Linux NFS server:
- Read test: ~9 MB/sec.
- BD1: OK.
- BD2: OK.
- 100Mbit Ethernet, NFS, WinXP + HaneWin NFS server:
- Read test: ~5.5 MB/sec.
- BD1: OK.
- BD2: stutters.
- 100Mbit Ethernet, SMB, WinXP:
- Read test: ~5.5 MB/sec.
- BD1: stutters.
- BD2: stutters.
- 1Gbit Ethernet, NFS, x86/Linux NFS server:
- Read test: ~14 MB/sec.
- BD1: OK.
- BD2: OK.
- 1Gbit Ethernet, NFS, WinXP + HaneWin NFS server:
- Read test: ~16 MB/sec.
- BD1: OK.
- BD2: OK.
- 1Gbit Ethernet, SMB, WinXP:
- Read test: ~9.5 MB/sec.
- BD1: OK.
- BD2: stutters.
- NOTE: SMB may not be suitable for very high bitrate playback
even when the read test shows good numbers. The reason is that
SMB processing eats much more CPU power in comparison with NFS
(and Bluray playback needs a lot of CPU power for its own
needs).

- Added support for more languages in subtitles.
- Now supported:
- Western European languages (CP-1252).
- Cyrillic languages (CP-1251).
- Hebrew (CP-1255).
- Support for all languages is provided for all cases:
- External subtitle files using 8-bit encoding (codepage).
- External subtitle files using Unicode UTF-8 encoding.
- MKV-embedded subtitles (Unicode).
- For external subtitle files, the encoding/codepage is autodetected
by default; the encoding can also be specified explicitly via Setup
/ Misc / Encodings / "Subtitles encoding" setting.

- Improved subtitles visualization: outline instead of background
shading.

- Fixed issue with subtitles cutting on first unsupported character.

- Improved the default vertical position of subtitles. (Goal: place
subtitles exactly in the black area below 2.35:1 movies).

- Added possibility to adjust the vertical position of subtitles.
- Press "SUBTITLE" button, then use "UP" and "DOWN" buttons to adjust
the vertical position.
- The adjustment is remembered persistently.

- Added support for .SUB (MicroDVD) format of external subtitle files.

- Improved compatibility with .SRT external subtitle files (added
support for some non-standard but nevertheless sometimes used syntax
variations).

- Added Setup options to control the behavior of "ENTER" and "PLAY"
remote buttons on media files.
- Possible choices: "Play single file", "Generate playlist".
- The default is as in NMT ("ENTER" plays single file, "PLAY"
generates playlist).

- Added Setup option to control the behavior of "ENTER" remote button on
folders with DVD-Video/Bluray backups.
- Possible choices: "Play", "Open", "Ask user".
- The default is "Ask user".

- Improved "screenshot with EJECT button" feature:
- A detailed description/warning is shown when the user attempts to
enable it.
- On screenshot capturing errors (e.g. no storage is attached), a
better message is shown on the front panel display: {"SHOT",
"FAILED"} instead of just "ERROR".
- In file browser mode, a notification about both succesful and
failed screenshots is shown not only on the front panel display,
but also on TV.

- Improved Setup structure:
- A new section "Applications" introduced, which includes subsections
for the configuration of all extra "top level" features:
- Torrent client.
- Web browser.
- IPTV menu.
- Internet Radio menu.
- Digital Signage.
- Dune HD movies service demo.

- Slightly improved zoom for file and DVD-Video playback.
- Captions of standard zoom presets simplified.
- Help on available remote buttons is shown for custom zoom mode.

- Added WiFi and Gigabit Ethernet hardware support (was not included
into the previous FW).
- Supported hardware:
- USB WiFi 802.11n D-Link DWA-140.
- MiniPCI WiFi 802.11n (RALink RT2860 chipset).
- MiniPCI Gigabit Ethernet (Realtek RTL8110 chipset).
- Limitation: for now, it is possible to choose WiFi or Gigabit
Ethernet network connection kind in Setup even if the corresponding
hardware is not installed; this may confuse the user. This problem
will be addressed in future fw.

- Minor improvements in some icons/captions.

Pozdrawiam

Kilka zdjęć Dune HD Center

Podobno HDI przygotowuje nastepce - DUNE HD Center 2.0 na nowej Sigmie.

W nowym f/w pojawiły się nowe ciekawe funkcję.

Najważniejsza zmiana to autoframerate

Jest też wybór pozycji napisów, dwie wielkości czcionki, 6 kolorów czcionki i oczywiście opóżnienie bądź przyspieszenie napisów.

Jet też możliwość synchronizacji rozjeżdżającej się ścieżki dźwiękowej, rozbudowany zoom.

Dość szybkie kopiowanie na wewnętrzny dysk przez USB w porównaniu np. z Tvixem.
