So having gone down the Linux AND windows RAID paths in the not too distant past. Let me save you some real pain. I know you weren't thinking about it, but just in case - don't go the windows route. Unless you have a lot more money than that ReadyNAS costs to get a real RAID solution for windows. Yo...
Rumor (well more than that actually) has it the next release has spicific PS3 UPNP support. I see a bare NV+ a 4 Hitachi 500GB drives via newegg, for just under $1300 shipped. Seems like a lot of money, but buying a 2TB NV+ already populated and setup as a single big X-RAID is a couple hundred more...
Have you tried any of the infrant nas products? They are on my list to investigate. Thanks! Top notch in my book. I own 3. 750MB, 1TB, and 1.5TB. Absolutly love them. Additionally, they act as a slimserver so my MP3s serve up nicely in slimroku. :-) Rumor (well more than that actually) has it the n...
I've been using this machine for years now and it's doing the job but I'm guessing that there are better toys out there now. Who has moved on to similar machines which they are finding to be much better? I still find that I have pixelation issues with various movies too. Mike Hi Mike, I have had an...
I have discovered another problem when using this method of using links to organize smb shares into categories. For some reason when trying to play a file over 2GB using Mplay I get the following error: " File open failed". If access the same large files using the normal method (i.e. not ...
Camino, Thanks for above script. I am using a modified version of it and it works great except for one thing. After running the script the only icons I have on the left are the "builtin" and "compactflash". The problem is that I can't see the Mplay icon to run it. In your script...
TheEndless, Do you know of any way for this community to get ahold of the underlying chipset API? Now that Roku is no longer interisted in supporting this product maybe we could further the cause ourselves. I know this topic has been touched on before, but as we all know, sometimes answers change wi...
Hmmm the longer sleep should work. I had to juggle mine around depending on the number of links made. As far as hiding the script after using it, I have not found a way to do that and make sure it is there following a reboot. I am sure there is a solution, maybe if I get a wild hair this weekend... ...
I LOVE my Infrant ReadyNAS solutions. I have 2x1.5TB X600s and 1x1.5TB NV. They are fast, affordable, and, from my experience, trouble free. I have had the X600s for about 2 years and the NV for about 9 months.
Hey Bill, It can be loaded from a regular share. However, that requires you have a share somewhat permanently mounted on your Roku. I don't like that as my family finds the clutter distracting and they actually have to navigate to that share to run the script after a reboot (then remember to leave t...
Hey Bill, Sorry it took so long to get back to you. Since Roku ditched us, I only drop by occasionally. Flexable is right. This script links all of the files from three different servers and colates them into three (although it could be any number) folders for easy consumption for my family. Anyway,...
