Hello shobhit !
its been near-about 2 weeks since i received my 900B. since that time, i must've played some 12-13 movies, most of them with subtitles. all played without any hiccups EXCEPT one. the movie was 'unforgiven' (1992), and had plenty of subtitles for various languages. but the player wouldnt display the english subtitles in correct script. i checked on my PC then, well there was some problem with the english subtitles indeed. i then downloaded a new subtitle file, and it played perfectly on VLC media player, but again, the 900B didnt display the script properly. it showed some garbled-up letters...some oriental language mixed with some spanish, english letters, etc. i didnt check the subtitle file in 'subtitle workshop' (a great software), since VLC didnt show anything wrong with the subtitle. i tried playing with 900B's settings aplenty, but to no avail. am hopeful there must be a solution for this lying around some corner waiting just to be found, but i havent yet exerted any effort to that extent.
but IMHO, this shouldnt bother you at all ! one such movie/file amongst so many playing wonderfully, i think one can give atleast that much to a splendid player like this.
also, regarding prodigy, there is plenty of negative feedback doing rounds on various forums (slack firmware release-scene & support, rude forum mods, player not having features as earlier promised, some hardware/software issues, etc). even i was waiting for this player eagerly, but thanks to 'kittu', and after following some forums, i came to know it might not be sane to purchase it, atleast right now, when even at xtreamer forums, praises abound of the 900B.
we have a member here named 'sukhjit bhullar' who purchased prodigy a few weeks back. he had placed a pre-order sometime in july if i remember, and that was just like a gamble he played (which he told me), without going deep in players-comparison. he seemed satisfied with the player, but also told he hadnt got quite enough time yet to spend with prodigy. just PM him and wait for his reply if you want.
all the best !
P.S. - BTW, Raghu's service + the player 900B = happy me (and hopefully, tomorrow a 'happy you'
)
