Yesterday I install ImgBurn and I make an Image (ISO+Joliet) and burn with nero.

ImgBurn rocks! Why don't you burn your ISO with it instead of Nero? Or better yet, use build mode and select your burner as target device to skip a temporary ISO file on your HD, fastest way to burn ISOs.

Now that you say you made it work, will there be an update for the 3260 as well? I'm still not getting the trouble with MTK chipsets and special chars. I mean, my old Cyberhome 4620 has a Mediatek 1389DE/C (as far as I can make out) and it does display all chars in the filebrowser as well as from ID3v1 (please see attachment).

BTW, this firmware also features New_Age's great feature to position divx subs via remote (screenshot #6).

I've done some more testing and I'm appalled to have to confirm that Philips/MTK somehow managed to revive one of the oldest bugs around: whenever an mp3 is played back up to 1 second of the beginning is cut off! The last time I encountered this was 10 years or so ago :(

This happens on playback from any source with VBR/CBR mp3s as well as with skipped or continuous play. It's of course most notable when you listen to audiobooks and suddenly the first word of the introductory sentence is missing. Any help on that?

Hi!

This doesn't only happen with mp3's, I have noticed the same problem with MPEG files too. Of course, with videos it's not as annoying.

I only got the 5990 yesterday and so far I am pretty pleased with it, except for one big problem: If I have a video (MPEG) in 4:3 format, the combination of DVP 5990 + HDMI cable + Sony KDL32D3000 is only capable of displaying the video in 16:9 :( The 5990 seems to transmit the wrong aspect ratio to the TV, and the TV doesn't allow me to change back to 4:3 when it thinks the image is 16:9. I haven't read all the threads on all the forums yet, but is there a possibility to avoid this, using the standard or the modded firmware, and if not can it be implemented somehow?

Thanks in advance,
Rob
