Thank you for nothing. I was hoping not to have to buy another media player, as the actual player is one of the better ones out there in terms of being able to play almost ANY format i have thrown at it I am still looking at 3rd party simple file sharing servers I could install on the windows 8 machine that can support older Samba connections Think I should also add From windows 8 pro machine I can access all shared files and folders stored on the noontec media center.

And I have just recently discovered that upnp network connection works. Good advice, friendly staff. Jakes Visser 15 Mar After my first review the owner called and cleared everything up.

Both the sales staff and the technical staff are knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. They all keep promises and deliver when and how expected. It's a pleasure dealing with them.

Charissa Nissen 29 Jul Excellent service! The guys are always friendly and very helpful. If you start recording in the 29th minute of The Simpsons , that's what the recording is likely to be called.

I tested the capabilities of the twin tuners by hitting the record button and then changing the channel, and hitting the record button again. Both channels were now being recorded, and I could still go back to the main menu and use the V9 to browse and play other media. It wouldn't let me change the channels any further until I specifically chose to stop one of the recordings, so it's difficult to accidentally interrupt something you really want to record.

If you want to step away for a few minutes from a live TV program, there's the number one selling point for every PVR, a pause-live-TV button on the remote. Press this, the program gets paused, and the progress bar below starts to creep along. Once you are ready to start watching again, just press play. There are fast-forward and skip buttons on the remote to move forward in the recording faster than real time. Finally, I had a play with the BT and Samba services mentioned earlier.

The V9 basically has a mini Web server that gives you a Web page to add and manage torrents. There's no real configuration of these services in the V9's own menu, beyond specifying a password to control access to the V9's server:. The BitTorrent client included has a fairly straightforward interface, with minimal controls to load, stop, delete, queue, and start torrents:.

You can upload torrent files from your local PC that you have saved earlier. You can't load magnet links or URLs of. There's settings for the torrent client in the browser, to manage the amount of bandwidth it will use, as well as controlling seeding and the number of simultaneous downloads. Given the cost of bandwidth in Australia, and the very few choices we have for unlimited Internet plans, you will want to monitor the progress of your files, and how much they've downloaded, to avoid your Internet connection becoming throttled when your quota gets exhausted.

Torrent-capable network appliances like the V9 are an extra special little land-mine for people who have one of these rip-off Internet accounts. Every computer in the house can be turned off, and a forgotten episode of Two and a Half Men uploading on your torrent box can still be peacefully costing you a thousand bucks a day, or more.

Fortunately, it's not hard to find a plan that doesn't meter uploads, and has speed-throttling instead of excess download charges. About the only basic feature missing from the V9's BitTorrent client, which people with a nervous disposition might want, is an option to encrypt the file transfers. Finished files get saved in a default folder called "BT" on the internal drive - you should be able to use the Browser to play them directly on the V9 once they are done, if the files you download are ready-to-play.

You can also use the Samba-provided share to copy downloaded files to other computers on your network, or play them over the network, e. I'd like to be able to use the V9 entirely without a PC, but the current state of the firmware doesn't make this possible if you want to torrent and deal with zipped files. Note that we haven't tested the V9-T's tuners in marginal reception areas.

If digital TV reception is lousy where you live, there's no guarantee that any particular PVR will work properly, even if you drop some more dollars on an antenna that requires rigging swiped from a ship-of-the-line. See if your neighbours have had to go through three different brands of set-top box before they found one that could get all channels. The V9 also lets you play lots of existing video and audio on your TV without needing to drag a whole PC into your living room.

And if someone rocks up with a digital camera full of holiday snaps, you can just pop its memory card into the V9 to show them off. The on-screen interface is intuitive enough that anyone who picks up the remote should be able to figure out how to play the content you've already put on the V9. The look and feel of the unit gives the impression that this is a second- or third-generation product with a reasonable bit of attention given to its industrial design.

And according to the importer who handed me this review sample, the factory tests each unit by playing content for around five hours before packaging them up.
