Syabas Technology heeft woensdag nieuwe firmware vrijgegeven voor de Popcorn Hour C-200. Deze zogenoemde Networked Media Tank kan audio en video vanaf de optionele harde schijf afspelen. Maar ook zonder harde schijf is het apparaat goed te gebruiken, want dan kan content vanaf een nas-systeem of een computer worden gestreamd. Het bijwerken van de firmware kan vanuit de speler zelf in Setup -> Maintenance -> Check for firmware update, of door het zipbestand naar de root van een usb-geheugenstick uit te pakken en vervolgens vanuit het menu naar het bestand usbupdate.html te browsen. Ervaringen uitwisselen over deze speler kan in dit topic op GoT. De belangrijkste verbetering in deze release is de nieuwe Networked Media Jukebox, waarvan enkele beelden in het filmpje onderaan deze posting te zien zijn.
