[QUOTE="icarusi, post: 747990, member: 308359"] I was looking at an LG passive 3D TV today and had previously unsuccesfully tried its USB playback using a USB SD card dongle, which had worked ok on recent Samsung, Pansonic and Sony TVs, although only the Samsung played all files. Today I used a USB flashdrive and the LG TV played all the files in the Amiko .ts format including the NHK World HD file which is in 1920x1080 and the AC Ryan player won't play without first running through TsRemux! Will try a different USB>SD dongle next. A couple of wrinkles on the Amiko, but nothing major, if you use a flashdrive or other single drive, then use a previous 2 partition drive to record on the second partition, the Amiko defaults to the 1st partition, so you have to reset which partition to record to. I set a dummy named recording in each partition to make partition identifying easier from with the file browser. The 'timeshift' had reset to 'on', possibly after the firmware upgrade. Starting recording was ok but stopping only made a break in recording to a new file rather than stopping. Setting 'timeshift' to 'off', the manual record start/stop acted normally. Media files will only play back from the relevant media 'filter' not from the 'all' files. Sometimes when viewing from 'all' files it can seem like a media file is unplayable, but needs to be launched from the correct media filter. The play list at 'file deletes' is a bit odd. An 'x' box is added but the list then moves to show the file list start, irrespective of where the file to be deleted is in the list, ok for batch deletes where a number of files are selected, less good for single file deletes, when it appears the file has been deleted, but it hasn't and only deleted on 'exit'.
