Firmware Update: Popcorn Hour A-100 01-17-091022-15-POP-402

Spread the love

Syabas Technology released a new firmware for the Popcorn Hour A-100 last week. This so-called Networked Media Tank can play audio and video from the optional hard disk. But the device can also be used without a hard disk, because content can then be streamed from a NAS system or a computer. Updating the firmware can be done by extracting the zip file to the root of a USB memory stick and then browsing to the file ‘usbupdate.html’ from the menu. Below are the release notes for this release:
