Like the title says, I'm not a dummy, but man... I feel like I've taken a couple steps back for sure!
I've got a Windows 7 box with a PVR500 in it and 2 HDHomeRuns on the network (getting HD via QAM). I got GBPVR setup and works fine on that box. I can record 6-8 things at once (since the HD is via QAM, I can get stuff on the multiplex, very cool).
My issue is that I want to use my NMT (Kaiboer K100 and eGreat e34a) as a front end to the GBPVR box.
Either I'm overthinking it or the dummy guide is way out of whack... especially when it talks about a USB stick.
In any case, I installed via that installer, skipping the GBPVR install. I have a share that I can see from my other windows computers (all Windows 7 at this point).
I have mapped a network share on the NMTs to this location without issue. They are mapped as MEDIA:pvrmc (or whatever the share name is, I'm at work now). I can go to the network share and go to the 4th icon and launch the .htm file. No matter what I select I immediately get the "operation failed" error message.
One thing that's bothering me is that when I do the network browser from the NMT (either of them), I don't see anything but NFS server. I don't see the homegroup that the windows 7 boxes are in. I'm thinking that this is part of the issue.
Please help!
