Good to hear!
I actually just wanted to ask you if you could try to run the disc with the network cable disconnected.
As I also had some freezes on discs with the previous firmware, but they only happen when connected to the network.

Regards,
Chris

If you haven't performed a downgrade yet, we have found out a workaround for the NTFS formatted HDD playability issue:

Equipment Needed: USB Flash Drive formatted as NTFS (example: Sandisk 16GB Flash Drive)
Pre-condition: USB Flash Drive formatted as NTFS using Windows, copy some media files into the flash drive.

Steps:

1. Power on BDP.
2. Plug in USB Flash Drive (Thumb Drive), BDP will detect flash drive.
3. Go into the USB browser and playback any file.
4. Stop playback, remove the USB flash drive.
5. Plug in the USB HDD with NTFS formatting.
6. BDP will be able to detect USB HDD, playback files.

So far it works for us with these steps. Kindly try this out and use this as a workaround while we solve the issue.

With thanks & regards,
Philips Moderation Team

Hi All,

I applied these steps with FW1.55 and my 2.5 500GB HDD is available now.
Thought it might be interesting to share.

Regards,
Zee

Hi,
BDP5200/98 and K/93 still use V1.31, which is dated last year Sept.
Is there any plan to release newer version?

Dear C.H,

There is a v.1.42 for BDP5200/98 and BDP5200K/93. This needs special handling and is usually done in Service Centre. I will let you know more about it through PM. Kindly have a check.

Kind regards,
Philips Moderation Team

Dear C.H,

I have sent you a PM. Please check.

Kind regards,
Philips Moderation Team

Hi Philips Moderation Team,

Got it, but I hit problem.
I have PM you. Need your help

Thanks

I bought a BDP5200/12 a couple of months ago. On the first powerup it wanted to upgrade fw to 1.55, and i let it do so. Later I discovered that it froze completely as soon as I tried to enter the advanced menu. I had a discussion with philips support and after trying this and that they adviced to return the unit to the reseller. I did so and got a new one, wich worked fine. Of course I didn't upgrade the fw this time from the start and I don't dare to now either! Not to 1.55 anyway, maybe if a new fw is released....
If anyone else have had this issue, please post so that Philips is made aware of the problem!

some months ago I had the very same problem as swehawk, and I had too to change my BDP5200/12 (Italy)
now I stay with the basic FW.......

I discovered that the player (and also the remote tv app for Android) don't like my windows home server (first edition) DNLA feature.
Don't know if it has to do with the amound of multimedia that is available or that it is a specific file, but the strangest thing is, that the philips TV does not choke on the WHS... !?!
I think thendevelopers should play around with some more complex network topologies...

Is this what you are experiencing?

Hi,

Although I think I also experienced the behaviour as described there, mostly the behaviour is that when I 'click' on 'browse PC' the Icon changes and then animates again and nothing more...

Chris.
