Alaways getting the same issue with Samba ...

After some heavy use / time ... It stops and won't restart ever ...

For some evil reason ...

Ok ... Well .. SMBD dissapeared completely from my box

But it's back after re-doing System Update , Upgrade Extensions ...
And working again

Weird, any idea ?

BUG in firmware found: After several hours of testing I've found the reason why some categories are not showing up. In the RSS files of the Jukebox directory the title tag causes problems on the PlayOnHDmini. The following title tag causes the 'Unable to service request' error:
<item>
<title>Sakrileg oder Legende - Das Rä</title>
<link>rss_file:///usr/local/etc/scripts/Das.Rätsel.um.den.Da.Vinci.Code.rss</link>
<media:thumbnail url="/usr/local/etc/scripts/Das.Rätsel.um.den.Da.Vinci.Code_small.png" />
</item>

And this one works fine:
<item>
<title>Sakrileg oder Legende - Das Rae</title>
<link>rss_file:///usr/local/etc/scripts/Das.Rätsel.um.den.Da.Vinci.Code.rss</link>
<media:thumbnail url="/usr/local/etc/scripts/Das.Rätsel.um.den.Da.Vinci.Code_small.png" />
</item>

The original file name in the movie directory: Das.Rätsel.um.den.Da.Vinci.Code.avi

I've tested with other German specific characters and the following causes the above described error:

'ü' stands for 'ü' and the only working title is 'ue'
'ä' stands for 'ä' and the only working title is 'ae'
'ö' stands for 'ö' and the only working title is 'oe'
'ß' stands for 'ss' works fine with 'ss'

Not sure if this is something that needs to be corrected in the YAMJ code that is used during generating the RSS files or in the PlayonHD firmware. On my PC all the categories works fine when testing them with an Internet Browser (Firefox and Internet Explorer).

Can you please let me know that this bug will be solved?

Thanks a lot for your hard work in improving the end user experience with every firmware!

Do you ever plan to get the torrent client working? Pretty annoying to see any reaction from the staff in this matter...

The current method to get BT to work, is to plug in the external hard disk first to your Mini, then go to Setup || System || Extension Package Update. Mini will create BT folder into your external hard disk and you will be able to use the BT features for Mini.

Please note that if you switch to another external hard disk, you need to reflash the firmware again on your Mini as it will not work if you just perform another extension package update on your new external hard disk. This issue we are looking into it to make something more easy access.

At the same time, please note that there are some bugs on BT which require Realtek's attention to fix. It has been escalated to Realtek already and they are looking into it at the moment.

YAMJ problems

I followed the instructions here to the letter, but when selecting the file with the INDEX in it the playon just brings the loading icon up and doesn't go any further than that.

Any ideas ??

I just has installed this BETA. I have found that there is instead NAS (ON/OFF) used BT and Samba. What does it mean? It means that I have lost very good feature to use POHmini like networking HDD? The item BT and Samba does not allowed me to be swithed ON.

Second question: What it item LOGIN CONTROL in Setup? Is there any help manual?

Has anybody else had any issues with performing a 'System update'?, it would appear that the system update option doesn't work!!! I was wanting to test the other Beta release but can't upgrade my system

Chris

also in this new trial firmware 3612 BT and Samba is gone after some time of using, the only solution is to install the firmware again on the rough way and then updating in the menu.

so this must be set on nr. 1 on the prioroty list to be solved once and forever, this is very irritytating.

BT and samba is still not stable!!!!!

The 83 character warning has been removed in the latest revision (BETA) of YAMJ.
You can either ignore the warning (it is just that, doesn't affect anything) or upgrade to the latest beta revision from http://mediaplayersite.com/YAMJ_Latest
