Disappointed to find out that even at this stage, a simple NFS support cannot be realized!!! Utterly disappointed!

...and no DTS downmix!

Have to agree ...

Subtitles of my divx files are gone after installing new firmware. I had no problem with the old firmware.

it appears AC Ryan caved into the pressure and released the firmware too soon and without adequate testing over a wide range of formats/files. Now they will have to scramble to get another release out quickly to fix the bugs.

Live and learn, I guess.

Got my PlayOn yesterday with the new firmware. It does have the bugs mentioned before with the subtitles and flac audio. Still i am very confident that ACRyan guys will do there best and duly deliver a proper and mature player 6 month from now.
I compare a good media player to a football team. I can have all the stars you want (R Madrid ) but you still have to give them time to adapt and get teamwork in order to succeed ( Barcelona)
So lets be patient (with acryan, xtreamer, C200, asus etc) and let the Messi's and Ronaldo's of the mediaworld do there magic!
One critic only. It's sad to see companies with vast experience release new products with the same bugs over and over again.... Just my two cents

There is a new beta firmware since today:

For 1st generation hardware (1073DA motherboards) no DTS downmix
support until now

I hear that October/November the DTS downmix should be ready and that the firmware will be universal for the two chipsets.
