External USB DVD
« on: January 17, 2015, 01:29:35 PM »
Hi All,

I have an external USB DVD and my HiMedia Q5 doesn't recognize it.
I have tried to switch on the USB DVD before and after HiMedia but without any luck.
My old player based on RTD1185 works without any problem with the same DVD box.
Is there any additional settings to be adjusted on HiMedia?

Best regards,
LongMan

Sorry but external DVD drives are not supported on the Q5 or Q10.

Thank you.
You mean external USB DVD is not supported ?
Can I use DVD connected to SATA port ?

To clarify, neither USB or SATA external DVD drives are supported by Q5 or Q10.

Thank you for information.
Sounds a  little bit disappointing but I hope there will be some support for optical drives in the future. :)

Thank you once again.
