Thanks for the wonderful ideas. Between biz trips and houseguests (and family complaints that I spend too much time tinkering on the computer :oops: ) I haven't been able to get enough time with both the PC and the home theater to get something really going; got partway thru the netcat download. I'l...

I finally got to the root of my SlimRoku problems. The recurrent SlimServer stoppages and SlimRoku hangs were not due to my WLAN (in fact a HomeLink 2.0 compliant powerline network had worse dropouts), I've had many of the same problem using wired LAN with a 50 foot cable strung across the kitchen a...

Thanks for the reply. What did it cost you to rebuild the power supply? Did you do it or send it in to Roku? I just used BBJohns' parts list in "List of parts to fix your power supply" thread in this forum and a soldering iron... The output voltage is low, so something else is ready to fa...

I have HD1000 that was unplugged for a couple of weeks. After it is plugged in, the Green Busy Light stays solid but no Power light. Power button has no effect. No video. Suggestions. That sounds like the same symptoms mine had... When I unplugged it and then restored power the busy light stayed da...

i tried disabling the firewall completely and still ahd the problem. I should mention that sometimes the music stops and the entire program hangs. I am using Wireless-G network. I ran the Slim Server network test at 3000kbps with the below results indicating that the network dosen't support that bit...

I'm running 6.5.1 on WinXP sp2, and SlimRoku v1.6Beta. :-( Hrmm.. does browsing the library work (trying to rule out any port specific issues)? TheEndless No! when the now playing screen hung I could navigate to the library, but the music library information never loaded, and SlimRoku did not recog...

I'm running 6.5.1 on WinXP sp2, and SlimRoku v1.6Beta. :-( Does anyone share this problem -- the "LCD Display" are updates properly but most of the Now Playing Interface screen gets stuck. Cover art, song title, artist, song list and the length of the song freeze. The bar graph clears with...

Does anyone share this problem -- the "LCD Display" are updates properly but most of the Now Playing Interface screen gets stuck. Cover art, song title, artist, song list and the length of the song freeze. The bar graph clears with a new song and increments, but the song duration seems stu...

I am really wanting to get SlimRoku working on my HD-1000. But I've had nothing but problems. I am running SlimServer on Mac computers. I have run it on 3 different Macs now all with the same symptoms. The latest Mac is a brand new MacPro with Dual 2.66 GHz Xeon processors. Anyhow, here is a summar...

OK, I need a little help too. I can only open the Roku developer page with my browser. ls -l /home/html/RokuWeb sends back lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Dec 4 20:55 /home/html/RokuWeb -> /mnt/smb/kitchen/my which tells me I mis typed the link the first time and my repeated attempts have ben fruitless.

Is anybody running SkimRoku with SlimServer 6.5.0? Any Issues or Problems? I've been trying :cry: . When it works it's great. Slimserver seems much more responsive and scans songs very quickly. The problem with albums containing "various artists" playing only in alpha order by artist inst...

More Playlist ordering weirdness -- (using slimserver 6.3.1) I selected an album that was basically a soundtrack with multiple artists. 1) When selected via slimserver on the PC the playlist is ordered by track number on Slimroku 2) When the album is selected on SlimRoku thru the misic library or th...

Hey you CF card wiz's.... ... Windoze won't let me create files with a leading dot in the filename! Err...what to do??? ... Thoughts? Did the CF reader in my Roku just die? I'm going to try doing a "not Quick' format of the card again (at the Windoze machine) I use Crimson Editor (http://www.c...

can you put shortcuts to all the movies in one folder on your PV and link MPlay to that?
