αλλα
I personally have IcyBox IB-MP305A-B. Tried many firmwares, currently using Astone ap-100, but don't even try to use it unless you have a universal remote like Logitech Harmony, since it has completely different remote codes than ACRyan or Icy Box. Although it has worst user interface (ugly and extremely slow), everything with that firmware works "out of the box" with my player - NAS, torrents, subtitles look great etc.
As for the point 3) - if there is a checker only for installation, it can be hacked as explained in Icy Box thread. Unfortunately, Mede8er's firmware has further checkers - I managed to install it, but when it boots, the other checker pops in. And it looks most promising of all firmwares.
