[VU+ Solo2] VU Solo2 ViX Image Discussion

[Rob van der Does]

MiniDLNA is a server (so only required if the box is used as server).
DLNA-Browser is a client, and available from the feeds.

 

[ferrari312]

Cool - does the browser allow you to see the movie files ( or at least the link to the .m3u file ) and launch them to watch ?

.. thanks for super fast reply

 

[Rob van der Does]

I tested it some time ago and found it to be working.
But tbh: due to a PMO (Personal Memory Overflow, happening more frequently when ageing ...) I don't remember the details.
So please test and report back.

I have DLNA-Browser browser installed and using it i was able to navigate and see my movie files , i could also launch and watch the movie. When i stopped the movie the dailog that appeared look very much like the old mediaplayer ... does that make sense ?

i was expecting it to use the new built in mediaplayer.

maybe some screen grabs would help ?

 

[Rob van der Does]

OK, so the DNLA-browser does work fine?

 

[ferrari312]

Yes, the browser works fine - no problem.

If i open the built in vix-mediaplayer it is able to browse the DLNA directories, but when it gets into a directory of a film lets say "Top Gun", nothing is displayed in the directory. If use the old mediaplayer OR the DLNA Browser i can browse to the same directory and see the media and play it.

The reason i asked the question is because someone said the old media-player would be removed , and currently the only way i can play media over DLNA is using the old mediaplayer.

 

[mickyblueys]

It was Andy b who said it would removed, I'm sure

Edit: in fact post 1 this thread

can you show me list of the directory.

 

[ferrari312]

I have attached 4 pics.

2 from the built in player - it can navigate the DLNA directory tree but I only see folders , no material.

2 from the old mediaplayer, this is in the same DLNA directory , i am in the "Titles" directory and you can see .m3u files which I can playback.

 

[ferrari312]

just to add - if i FTP to the box

i can browse to

/media/upnp/XBMC (MEDIATANK)/Video Library/Movies/Title

and in this directory i see each movie listed as an .m3u file.

Does this mean that the inbuilt player is interpreting the .m3u file incorrectly ?

So, I want to watch recordings and TV channels on my PS3 from my Solo2. On my Dreambox I was using MediaTomb. Is MiniDLNA the correct program to use in the Vix image for Solo2 for watching TV channels and recordings (.TS format)?

EDIT: Done some more reading and I take it all I need is MiniDLNA and TunerServer? There is no need for MediaTomb?

It seems the solo 2 is reporting the wrong AGC % . It's very low on my solo 2 BBC 1 london shows at 43%. On my vu duo it shows 97%

Software Updates always shows 3 Available packages for update but They never update.. Is there any way that I can get more info on this? If I click "view the changes" I get a blank screen, If I update them the Solo2 goes through the update process but I still have the 3 packages when Im finished... I am just wondering if there is a log somewhere that might help me troubleshoot this problem...

 

[judge]

what build are you currently on?

 

[Eiji]

I was on build 569 and updated to 589. Now when I press left or right on the circular disc button on the remote, this shows up:

Before, the infobar would show up and show information (episode guide) on the current program being viewed. Now it just looks ugly and episode guide is missing. Surely something is wrong.

Naah, nothing wrong there.
1- When the new InfoBar-EPG like in you screenie shows up, you can press Info (or guide) to bring up EventView;
2- You still have the old way available: press menu when in InfoBar-EPG and select 'Single'.

Im on build 589. I just want to know if there is any way to find out what these 3 updates are so I can manually update them...

Anyone else have weird standby, deep standby problems?
Suddenly after recording, after playback etc box can go Standby or Deep standby. HDMI CEC is Off and Powertimers are empty.

Yes I have had that issue. Turned debug logs on to try and capture it next time.
