DVD with PCH

[dirkomatic]

I guess it might drop out while it was ffding, but it catches up as soon as I press play.

It really seems to work just as well as my dvr.

I don't argue that the specs don't warrant it, but it really works well for me.

Most of my isos are < 4GB (I cut out the menus and extras) and I only ffwd for a minute or two max, so I guess beyond that it might not work.

i can't get this to work...i have dvds in a share...does it have to be local to serer machine?
i can see the files in the dir after mounting..

on config i have |dvd~\\192.123.1.105\dvds| for vid library..
and this:
mkdir /mnt/\\\\192.123.1.105\\dvds
mount -t cifs //192.123.1.105/dvds /mnt/\\\\192.123.1.105\\dvds -o username=guest,ro;

might i try mapping to a drive letter locally?

it sees the dir and i can browse..

[mvallevand]

Can you run mvpmcx2 from telnet, capturing all the screen out with putty? If so I would like to see what is captured.

Martin

[pBS]

here ya go...done with Hyperterminal [it has capture to file also, just bump up the buffer a bit..]

hope that helps...had me confused...lol :confused:

[mvallevand]

Do you have a folder /mnt/lost+found ?

Martin

[mvallevand]

Actually could you try this alpha update of mvpmcx2 ? It might explain some problems people have been having too.

Martin

[pBS]

cool...call me a guinea pig...
i've been having the hardest time with simple if/else clauses...if's work but else's don't..

and i found an easier way to pass params to scripts, use $QUERY_STRING and URL?xxx
had some fun discovering what browser stuff works or not too...[painfully slow tho]
i almost have a unified script with drop down for the telnet/gbpvr scripts..
[hard disk and usb mounts..shares are too different] with error and stdout and no wc need...

but alas still some work to do on it yet..but the concepts work fine..

thanks, will get to this later tonight..
i bet it's that HDCP?! messages i saw...eww...[it isn't supposed to work yet!]
i bet it works over hdmi...lol
[no hdcp possible on component]

[mvallevand]

You are not really a guinea pig, let's call this the first "private" release.

Let me know how $QUERY_STRING works. This is how I wanted to combine the CGI scripts but I had no luck.
when I first started.
