I have no firewall on the pc but have a linux firewall on the router between the box and pc. Was just wondering there too if there are ports that need to be forwarded? Cant check a ping at the minute as im in work.
yo mate can you give me the link to the 64bit hotfix please
I got the hotfix here:
http://support.microsoft.com/hotfix/...571&kbln=en-us
Tick the checkbox for the version you need, x64 is the middle one. Fill in your details below and they email you the hotfix.
i got that mate but itssaying when i try to install it, the update is not applicable to your computer, whats this mean mate
Two I believe, one in my modem/router/hub/access point, and a software one in my Mac. I suspect that they only affect traffic coming from beyond my LAN. As for pinging in that direction, I've never tried, so let's see:Yup. Slow, but I've got an upload running hogging bandwidth.Code:$ telnet 192.168.1.50 Trying 192.168.1.50...

I'm not sure what "it" is, but whatever, maybe you'd better look for a variant that matches your hardware architecture and operating system.
Strange. It worked for me without a problem. Youre definately using a 64bit OS?

When you browse the network from your vu+ box do you see your Mac ?
its a pc and yes running win 64bit, it does see my pc but thats it, it did pic up my sons laptop running xp home and did see the files but there was nothing in there.
thanks
Same as what i have even with the hotfix installed. Based on what i have read on different sites and on what xarqi says above, i may need to set up my permissions correctly on the shared folders. Found this guide on some site which im going to try when i get home from work.
Anybody have any other guides on drive mounting i would love to see them. Also any guides on mounting a NAS drive would be great as im also having trouble with that!Code:http://www.ucassupport.nl/download/Dreambox/CIFS_How_To.pdf
Right, getting somewhere now. Got all the folders shared and mounted successfully. Was a permission issue on the shared folder.
I can now browse the folders in media player and can see all the sub folders, but cant see anything in them. Is there only certain types of videos can be played, and divx etc not be played?
Need to try and get my NAS mounted now.
Yes - that much works fairly reliably. It was when I tried to "expand" the listing for the Mac that things got a bit weird, since I couldn't, even though I'd done all I could think of at both ends to make the shared folders visible. It was cycling the main power on the Duo that I associate with this part starting to work.
Progress! Excellent.
I don't have a full answer to your question, sorry. What I can say is that while the Duo creates about 4 files for each recording event, only one entry is visible. Where I've copied a video file in, I see it. I haven't copied any other file types in to check. So far, to my delight, the Duo has played everything I've fed it: MPG, FLV, TS, AVI, DivX, XviD, MKV. This is via the "Recorded Files" function mind you, not via the "Media Player", which may be different.

My mistake. divx seems to be ok, i have a lot of files in wmv format which arent seen. I guess these arent playable?
