Sources
Device | Fw rev | Resolution | Compatibility | Notes |
Tivo Series 3 | unknown | forced 720p | intermittant | I could get NeTV into mode where it just showed black background, usually by switching video inputs on TV and coming back to the Tivo+NeTV chain. (chumby) Does it ever work? i.e. is the previous description the intermittent failure case, or the dominant operating mode |
PS3 CECH-2501A | Version 3.56 | forced 480p, 720p & 1080p | intermittent | NeTV works under 480p and 720p. However it doesn't work under 1080p, and even doesn't go into the self-timing mode. |
Sony Blueray DVD Player BDP-S370 | MO3.R.511 | forced 480p, 720p & 1080p | intermittent | NeTV works well under 480 and 720p, but it goes into the self-timing mode under 1080p. |
LG Network Blueray Disc/DVD Player BD550 | Main Ver: BD4.380.00; Servo Ver: H08LGN0902 | forced 480p, 720p & 1080p | intermittent | NeTV can work under 480p and 720p, but NeTV becomes snowy when changing the resolution to 720p sometimes. NeTV can display abnormally under 1080p in the very beginning, then it goes into self-timing mode. |
AKIRA DVD Player DVD-K3528HD | unknown | forced 480p, 720p & 1080p | intermittent | Also works well under 480p and 720p, and under 1080p NeTV failed to go into the self-timing mode. |
