Oh, probably not. The only real upgrade I see for my particular setups is the giganet ethernet, and I've found (despite some folks having problems) that if you design you network properly (non-blocking ehterswitches for one), then 100BT that the A-110 has is way more than fast enough, as the top bit-rate of BR discs is at best around 60-70Mb/s.

Again, properly designed network, and I haven't seen ANY problems (but have been able to nail it by using bad design/equipment.

But, maybe I will as I do need another box for a bedroom, so...

Got mine on order, the website when down the day of release due to traffic I believe. Looking forward to this piece of kit, haven't owned a popcorn hour before but it ticks all the boxs.

would really like one - my A110 is fine, but would like:-

faster ethernet
faster UI
BluRay ISO playback

but for £ 300? can't really justify it at the moment

I already have a PCH-110 and don't see the upgrade as necessary atm, but I'm definitely happy that NMT's are getting more and better features and hopefully the C200 can entice more mainstream consumers to adopt it :)

Lol where did you hear about the BluRay ISO playback. The new popcorn hour can't play bluray iso, it can only play blurays burned to a disk. You have to have a bluray drive to connect to the popcorn hour through USB in order to get full bluray support.

sorry, but you're wrong

BD ISO support confirmed on NMT forum :


Will the unit play BD backups/BD ISO with menus etc?
Yes it will. Rips must be made with software such as anyDVD HD or DVDfab.

Well please link that because I am reading the forums right now and they are saying you need a bluray player. Also the main site that is selling it also lists the same info. If they could play the bluray ISO's I think they would want to advertise a little bit more.

So will this be a firmware feature or a hardware feature?

Like will I just be able to upgrade my 110 and be able to play BluRay ISOs?

pretty sure it's only for the C200 - not for the A110

I just ordered my first Popcorn Hour the 100 refurb, if it's as good as it's suppose to be I'm sure i'll order the newer one.
