Playing DVD on Extender=Lock up
I did a search on this, but didn't find anything--so I apologize if this has been covered before.
I have an HD 100 Extender in my home gym that works fine playing HDTV (live and recorded) and SD, music, etc. Everything but watching a DVD on the server. My DVD's are full, uncompressed VOB rips. The DVD's play perfectly on the server computer (main HTPC) and on a Sage TV client computer downstairs. My HD100 firmware is current. Any help is appreciated. |

Just to clarify: what version does it say is being used?

Firmware is reported to be 20080204 0. I just did a hard reset and tried to check for a firmware update--it indicated that no firmware updates were available at this time.
Thanks again for any help with this issue. |

Yes, that's the latest firmware. Version 6.3.10 is the latest version of SageTV & is shown on the Systemn Info screen -- just use the Info command foro the Main Menu.
I don't really know what is happening, thoguh -- maybe there is an issue with the DVD file structure. You could check the debug log to see if it contains anything after you try playing a DVD. If no one else has a suggestion, check with tech support to see if they know what might be happening. - Andy

You might want to check on the program you use to put the DVDs out there. I have one program and if I use it it works everywhere but on the HD Extender. I have 3 other programs that perform the same function and I have zero issues with playback on the HD Extender or anywhere else. You may want to go down that path and test with a different program.

I just "upgraded" my server to Vista SP1--that seemed to do the trick. DVD's are now playing fine on the extender--maybe it had to do with the Vista networking issues??? No idea, but now it is all working.
Thanks for all the help. |
