first of all what SD Card did you use with alpha 4? 2gig wont accept! even with lock on..most of the time

yeah go download alpha 3 and try that

 

[AdamBrunt]

it's a 1GB card but didn't realise you had to lock it. works fine now.

And it finds the share on my NAS [ once I have drilled down far enough past the MNT/.../.../ stuff

]

Now to test it.

I'm one "helpful" asshole

 

[AdamBrunt]

you certainly are

and the quality of geexbox is superb (when my NAS isn't being hammered by me downloading stuff to it !!!). not too upset that I sold my popcorn hour now

not a bad night all round for me .... fixed a 'bricked' wii and media streaming works like a dream

Ah, I didn't - sorry.

I just copied it onto the SD card and used the uPnP server functionality of my NAS drive. Geexbox just found straight away. Though the entry for SMB:

STATIC_SMB="ipmyservernameshare1"

in the etc/network file looks very similar to MPlayer. I am presuming ip is the ip addy of your pc and myservername is the name of the pc. I haven't actually tried it yet.

As I say I am trying very hard to fault the quality of the video but I can't at the moment.

Next step, if it's even possible, is turning it from a HBC 'application' to its own channel.

Yeah your'e right time for bed for me as well, PLEASE CAN ANYONE HELP ME WITH SAMBA ON GEEXBOX??????????

No-one has given me help regarding this!

 

[zerof]

I've tried two or three different divx/xvid tv shows but I get scrambled vision. The sound stutters and then I get scrambled vision forcing me to hard reboot. Probably the files I'm picking but I haven't found a file that plays "normal" yet.

Sorry djdynamite123, can't help you.

I tried all the combinations for STATIC_SMB I could think of but nothing worked - unless I was having the same 'need to use a certain text editor to save' problem as you.

 

[djdynamite123]

yeah it says, you need a certain editor otherwise geexbox will give error trying to find it the path to the file from SD*

can anyone help please..?

Hi DJ

Try Downloading this editor http://www.ultraedit.at/mirror/downloads/uedownloads.html in the geexbox readme it recommends this editor in order for it to work. I tried it with notepad and when you open geexbox it hangs at a black screen. I am going to be looking into geexbox streaming as it is supposed to be one of the best out there. Hopefully this helps you as you have been helpful to everyone else. Give it a shot anyway.

Cheers

[djdynamite123]

with the above i just done on the network file, it didn't give me an error, it said mounting samba share, but what do i do now I'm in geexbox menu? how do i locate my samba shared folders??

 

[AdamBrunt]

Pretty sure you just do "Open file..." and the bottom option is "SHARES/" though when I just tried it, due it autoscanning, it first only came up with "FRONTSD/" but on going back to main menu and then back into Open File all 3 options (uPnP, SD and shares) were there.
