Many problems with MKV

[HDTV4me]

The Neo still exhibits deficiencies, particularly with MKV rips
See my post on AVS here:

Since the Neo and the Dune use the same SOC the difference should not be there.

While I prefer BDMV over MKV many users prefer MKV, one reason I posted here:

For now I will stay with BDMV

What kind of deficiencies? With the exception of my concert dvd isos, my collection is all MKV and they work great. Perhaps you can provide some Media Info on some of the problematic MKVs?

The link to the Neo on AVS has 4 attachments containing mediainfo and at the top a brief description of the .mkv problem.
Did you look there ?

I looked at the post but it made no mention of any issues with MKV and once I read "The Dune is far more capable compared to the Neo" I figured I'd read enough.

Too bad, had you reviewed the attached .txt files you would have had the info.

I hope the Neo SW engineers would be more diligent.

got a Popcorn Hour C-200, which is also the same SOC, and its "birth" has also been awful at the beginning (so many problems). NTV550 is a young product, so just leave it some times for firmware to grow and I'm pretty sure we'll get a top product, as usual with Netgear.

No real problem with the Neo, I point to problems with .mkv for others because it is a popular format, just trying to help by running detailed tests to uncover problems. Call it a hobby if you like.

My preference is BD folder and occasional .ISO and my experience with BD folders is very good.
The problem with the Neo freezing on VC1/THD in MKV was first posted by high-definitely and myself several months ago. It should be fixed for those folks who use .MKV almost exclusively.
The combination of VC1 and DB THD is popular, all the Harry Potter HDDVD series for example, 2001, Blade Runner in BD format to name others.

Problems need to be reported, otherwise Netgear may not know they are there.

Perhaps if your title subject had been more specific on your AVS post. You state in this subject post "problems with MKV" but you did not even mentino MKV in that post.

If you want more dilegence, be a bit more dilegent yourself.
