Time and Filebrowser

[JulesW]

Hey,

I have two issues with my VU+ Duo.

The first is that it displays the wrong time. I'm on GMT+2, and this is what I set up on the box, but it shows the time one hour earlier. Obviously it effects all my timers and so on. Couldn't find anywhere to update the time manually.

Another problem I have is that I can't install the FileBrowser. I mean, I do install it from the system extension list, but it doesn't appear anywhere and when I go back to the system extension list I still see it as uninstalled.

Any idea?

Thanks,

The time it as far as I know picks it up from the sat, I only every sat my location and the time box sorted itself. Try doing a rescan on the sat for your country and see if it fixes it.

is DST enabled, if not, this would cause the time to be an hour out, even when its picked up from the satellite

 

[JulesW]

Thanks!

Where do I set up the DST?

 

[punisher]

i dont think you can set up DST on vix 2.1 i dont see the option anywhere

 

[JulesW]

Nowhere to disable/enable it...?

If so...failed to understand what digidude offered.

 

[basilyoung]

I would expect that digidude will respond in the next day or so

wish I could help, but cant

 

[JulesW]

Alright.

Thanks!

And as for the FileBrowser?

Any idea...?

 

[punisher]

never installed the plugin, what is it used for? im guessing browsing the filesystem on your duo?

 

[JulesW]

Yep.

Unless you know of another way to move files from the VU+ HDD to another one?

 

[punisher]

Where u tryna move files to and from?

 

[JulesW]

Anyone...any idea...?

Thanks,

I wish to move files from the VU+ to my desktop.

 

[Stanman]

open up windows explorer and than click on network and than the VU and drill down to the file you want and than copy and paste to where ever you want to put it.

 

[JulesW]

So easy... Too easy.

Thanks!

One follow-up q tho...

For each recording I have the main file
Then the same file name .ts.ap for ~200-300kb.
Then the same file .ts.cuts 1kb
Then the same file .ts.meta 1kb
Then the same file .ts.sc ~3mb

What are the smaller files for? Do I need them at all or can I just delete it?

 

[punisher]

as far as im aware all the files are required inorder for playback on the duo, not sure what they are though, someone will post in and let us both know

 

[JulesW]

Ok. Will wait. For now I can't transfer the files.

I get a 0x8007003A error...

But that's a Windows issue. Not a VU+ one.

Will sort it out in another forum.

I on windows 7 and put a network mount up so i got the duos root folder on my computer as a network hdd. To be honest i find it a lot faster transfering large files via ftp to my pc. I use the network mount fot quick checks and edits and logs mainly

To be able to play back the recording on a PC you only need the .TS file.
