No the finder is a limited software version and only does finder functions, no media via USB.
Google translate: Гугл переводчик :
Нет, Finder - это ограниченная версия программного обеспечения, которая выполняет только функции Finder, а не носитель через USB.

Below are pictures of the bug I found on the OSD screen that shows the audio type and sample rate:
Unit: GTMedia V-73HD Meter
Firmware date: 22-10-2020
When the audio type is Mpeg2, Mpeg the sample rate appears normally, and when the audio type is AAC, the sample rate does not appear even though the audio is normally output on the speaker.
New suggestion: Would it be possible even on the OSD screen to have the measurement C / N in db and Power in dbm?

Below is the change log for the earlier version.
I have no copy or record of the other version you have.
Maybe they made a small change and the date changed, the version number is still the same.

Great, Now the SNR values are different from the previous version.
Before on firmware 04-06-2021 the value in DBM was the difference in signal power in relation to 100%, in firmware 09-06-2021 the value is independent of the power signal value to 100%, at least I think it is.
Where can we download this new version 06-09-2021?

Hi,
The satellite 30W Hispasat 5 + 6 with the new DVB-S2 transponders is missing.
The one listed in user's sat list is Hispasat 1c+1d with the old transponders.
What to do?

Re: GTMedia Finder V-73 Meter - Test report (23-10-2020)
Hello Admin,
Please I'm having issue with my V -73 finder
Recently what I'm experiencing is whenever ii switch my gadget, immediately i select SATELLITE, the screen will go blind and within some few seconds or minutes, it will come up and it won't respond again no matter the amount of pressing or selection i may did, no way, the next option is to switch it off, when switch on it will continue in thesame manner. In the event that it manage work, as soon as i select dstv frequency with symbol rate, it go blind also,.
Please what may be the possible cause of this issue, and the solution to it. I have done factory reset, no way, or can you refer me to your servicing centre in my area where this may be urgently resolve.
Waiting for your quick response
Thanks
