Hi.
I'm watching TV over satellite and I wanted to buy a hauppauge DVB-S (e.g. DVB-S Hauppauge WinTV / TV Nova-SE2) to watch TV with linuxmce. Does Lmce support satellite-tv (DVB-S) with this hauppauge card and is there a way to use timeshifting in linuxmce?

Year, I see. Of course hundreds of people want to get that file.
Well. I managed to get the pando-download working again and now I'm loading with about 100 kb/s and hopefully the software will be downloaded untill this evening.
If you enable anonymous ftp service again, please let me know here!

Cool. If you host this Server, could you tell me the password and username for the ftp-Server? Or could you add a new puplic User that only has read-acces to this file so Users can download it? Would be really great!

Hi. I want to test the new LMCE 0704 and therefore I wanted to Download the Quick install DVD. I looked at the Mirrors-Page http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Mirrors and on most Mirrors there are only the 2 Install CDs wich require a clean Kubuntu-install. So I tried the torrent first. I started the day before yesterday and it still says "6 days left" and 0 kb/s download speed. Sometimes I get about 3 kb/s, but still it would take years to download 3,7GB at 3kb/s. So I tried the pando-service. I let my PC on over night and in avout 30 hours I got 76% of the file, but yesterday I shut my PC off and today in the mourning I can't connect to the file any more. It always says "waiting fo senders" and after a while I get an Error. Do I have to download the whole file again? And do I have to download the whole file in one piece?

I only found one signle Mirror that hosts the LMCE 0704 Quick install DVD in one pice: http://mirror.chibiko.net/ But If I want to Download the File (ftp://ftp.chibiko.net/LinuxMCE_0704_Quick_Install_DVD.iso) I have to enter a password for the ftp-server. What's the password? Can any1 tell me? And what are these md5-numbers in front of the Files?

How can I get the Quick install DVD fast and easy? 3.7 GBs isn't a Problem. I got DSL, but I don't want to download it with only 3 kb/s which takes years to finish!
Or do I have to buy the DVD for $5? Can I order it although I live in Germany?

I hope any1 can help me. How did you get the installDVD to install you LMCE0704?

Hi. I got my LMCE 1.1 system on a VMWare up and working on Kubuntu 7.04. Now I'd like to connect to it using a windows Orbiter, but thats not really working.
I followed this tutorial to use Windows as an Orbiter: http://wiki.linuxmce.com/index.php/Control_LinuxMCE_using_a_Windows_device_as_an_Orbiter
In the Pluto admin panel I added a new Obiter and typed in the IP of my Windows PC: 192.168.0.28. But I did leave out the MAC-Adress. I don't know how to find this addres out? Could you help me with that?
Then I did a quick Router reload and downloaded the Orbiter Win Installer for Intel/AMD x86 (normal). When I start up this program I have 2 fields: the Device ID (I think it's 29 for me) and the Router IP. I think the Router IP is the address of my LMCE Core, is that right? I go to the web-admin-page with 192.168.0.80/pluto-admin, so I entered 192.168.0.80 in my Orbiter-programm. When I klick apply there's a popup saying: This new Orbiter is ready to go. But all your divices need to be reloadet before you can use it.
So I klick Yes - Reset i now.
But then there's an Error in the log: Failed to connect to DCE Router. I'll try again in 2 seconds...
When it's finished, the popup comes up again: This new Orbiter is ready to go. But all your divices need to be reloadet before you can use it.
Here's a screenshot showing the LMCE Admin Backend and my Windows Orbiter:

My second Problem is, that I don't know how to add Media to my file System. When I go to Media->Media Files Sync I can brose through my file system of my VMWare and I can add files to the Database by klicking on the button behind those files.
But how do I add files not stored on the Core-PC? I got one Windows PC with all my Pictures, Videos and music. How do I add these files to LMCE? I couldn't find anything in the wiki, but I'M pretty shure I has to be mantioned there anywehre...Could you help me? I think I have to mount different network shares in a specific directory. But how do I do this?
When I first tried out LMCE I thought, that every Media on all the PCs in my LAN would be fond automaticly by LMCE and I culd watch it then...but this doesn't really work!

I hope you can help me with my 2 problems! Thx.

Hi. I tried installing LMCE 1.1 on a VMWare Server. The installation of Kubuntu 7.04 went all right and everything seems to work fine. Now I added 2 CD-ROM Divices in the Virtual Machine Settings: One with the iso of the lmce1.1-packages, one with the cache-files.
Then I booted the Virtual machine and the 2 CD-Roms appeared on the desktop. So I went into the packages-cd and installed the LMCE-installer. The icon appaered on the desktop and I klicked it to start the installation. Now comes my problem:
During the installation the setup first asks for the cach-cd. I tell it, that it's in the drive and klick forward. Then a screen comes up: Caching Ubuntu extra CD. When this is finished, i'm asked to insert the LMCE installation cd with the packages. I do this and I can view ths cd when I klick on the icon on the desktop, gut when I klick forward in the setup, there is an errormessage saying that the cd could not be cached. When I klick ok the installation is stoped.
The funny thing is, that when I reboot my virtual machine, the cache-cd can not be cached, but the installtioncd can. Then, if I reboot again, it's again the other way around: the cache-files-cd can be cached, but not the installtioncd.

Anyone know how to solve this problem?
