Re: CDFreaks presents the Helios X5000 HD Network Media Player Review

I converted the music videos in my iTunes to work on my iPod. In iTunes GetInfo, it shows as "MPEG-4 video file, 21.4 MB, 96 kbps bit rate, 44.1 kHz sample rate". When I try to play it on NeoLink on my X5000 (wired ethernet), the video plays but there is no sound. I can understand not supporting DRM, but native formats SHOULD be supported.

I ripped all my CDs into iTunes as "AAC audio file, 128 kbps bitrate, 44.1 kHz sample rate". When I open the file in NeoLink, it will not play any sound. When I press "Info" on the remote, I see "MP4". I should not have to convert all my files to MP3!

So when I saw the review and it "passed" all MP4 formats, I thought maybe it's just my box. I upgraded to the 07-Jan-8 Firmware on the first day I got the box.

Anyone else have the same experience?
