Can't get paths right - using GUI or not using GUI. Here is what I have:

Mapped root of USB drive attached to POHD Mini to my PC as T:
ACR_Library.xml looks like this:

Code:
<!-- Library file generated by Omertron's GUI Config -->
<!-- YAMJ GUI Config (ACR) v1.0.3 -->
<!-- http://MediaPlayerSite.com/YAMJ_GUI_Config_ACR -->
<!-- For A.C.Ryan PlayOn! MediaPlayer -->

<libraries>

  <library>
    <path>T:\</path>
    <playerpath>file://../</playerpath>
    <exclude name="sample,tmp/,temp/,RECYCLE.BIN/"/>
    <description>A.C.Ryan</description>
    <prebuf></prebuf>
    <scrapeLibrary>true</scrapeLibrary>
  </library>

</libraries>


and ACR_YAMJ.cmd:
Code:
@Echo OFF
REM Command file generated by Omertron's GUI Config
REM YAMJ GUI Config (ACR) v1.0.3
REM http://MediaPlayerSite.com/YAMJ_GUI_Config_ACR
REM For A.C.Ryan PlayOn!HD MediaPlayer

C:
CD "\A.C.Ryan MovieJukebox"
CALL MovieJukebox ACR_Library.xml -o "T:"
pause
exit


Jukebox generates OK and dumps at root of USB drive. Sample from movie XML file:

Code:
<files>
            <file firstPart="1" lastPart="1" title="UNKNOWN" subtitlesExchange="NO" size="21346779136" zcd="2" watched="false">
                <fileLocation>T:\Film &amp; TV\Movies\Clerks\CLERKS.iso</fileLocation>
                <fileURL>file://../Film%20%26%20TV/Movies/Clerks/CLERKS.iso</fileURL>
                <fileTitle part="1">UNKNOWN</fileTitle>
            </file>
</files>


This just gives a "No video file" error. Also tried AVI's and it's the same thing.

Using:

Yet Another Movie Jukebox
Build Date: 2011-01-26 00:51:48
Version: v2.3 BETA
Revision: r2100

and firmware r5440

Any ideas?

Hi

The ACRLibrary XML file looks OK and the ACR_YAMJ file appears to be working, although I would make one smnall change to tidy it up.
change
CALL MovieJukebox ACR_Library.xml -o "T:"
to
CALL MovieJukebox ACR_Library.xml -o T:\
This will absolutely ensure that the index file is in T:\. Quote marks are not needed around T:\ as there are no spaces in T:\. Your file is working though so this is not a major issue

Your YAMJ version is out of date and and you should upgrade to at least V2.5.1 - see the post at the top of this forum for the link and instructions

One problem may be file naming - see the wiki for the limitations in the GUI2.0 firmware http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/PlayOnHD.

There have also been problems with SDK4 based firmware and corruptions on USB drives - you could try plugging the USB drive directly into a PC and running checkdisk to make sure there are no file system issues.

Hope this is useful,

Andy

Thanks for your reply Andy. Actually I don't think there is much point in trying these things. I had a go before with r3582. The Jukebox actually worked OK eventually but I could not play ISO files through it. The answer then was to wait for a new firmware release so I am trying 5440 but it just doesn't work properly. NAS restarts randomly, media library recognises drives sometimes and not others and half my Blu-Ray iso's don't play. So I think I will forget about Jukebox, switch back to 3582 and save up for a Popcorn hour device! Sorry.

Hi Bill
Iso files have also intermittently caused issues for AC Ryan - and the problems are almost always in the firmware, and with SDK4, particularly in the jukebox. I do have it working for me - but I have remained with an SDK3 firmware on my mini, due to the issues with ther SDK4 Jukebox. I don't use .iso files though, all mine are in .avi format.
The other device you mentioned also uses YAMJ though.
If you need any more help just let us know
Andy
