Hi

Is there anyone that has a HTC tytnII working as an orbiter?
I have tryed to install XScale but when I try to start it it hangs. What can I do?

When you set up the system there where 2 options (use linux structure and make all public.) If you had make all public it would scan the hole disk.  Every time you added a new file all you need to do is a new sync. 

Can I make it scan imdb.com instead of amazon?

It is recommended to use the linuxmce structure not public, because the all the media is public.

When you added the windows share what structurer did you make (LinuxMCE structure ore all public)

If you used Linux then under your share you should find some new folders named public and 1 for each user, and under this ther are folders for picture,video,audio and documents. So you have to copy your pictures too the pictures foolder.

If you used make all public it will scan the hole share for medias. This can take some time.

Hope this was helpful.

I found it. Is thise all the media on my pc? Why is not all of this files showing opp in MCE?

When I go in to the media browser it is empty why?

Col. This did not work.
I could make a thumbnail of the video if i pressed thumbnail wail playing the video. But I would like to have the cover for my thumbnail not a scene from the video. In the video of LinuxMCE they have the cover picture for that video.

Thanks.

In windows I can play xx.iso files in vlc, why can I not do that in MCE? Is there an opption where I can say witch media player to use?

And a gen sorry col. how do I add thumbnails to the audio files?

Thank you this helped a lot.

Do you know what the manage drive is for? I thought it was fore managing the drives I share, but it is empty

Thanks wery much for a wery helpful answer. I just needed to wait for some minuets then it popped up. So now I can see the pictures.
What about the thumbnails for audio and video, any suggestions? 

Thanks for the answer. Will try it.
But do I have to copy files frome win to mce, isent it suposed to scan the share on the file server for media?

Wel tanks fore all your help. Now on the windows machine I have shared the E drive. No I have found 4 new folders in this drive, Public, user 1, user 2, and user 3. Under each of these folders ther are a folder named data, and under this there is 4 new folders named audio video picture and documents.  So I copyed some picture from my windows machine and pasted them in the folder picture. Then I went in to the mce and browsed to the folder home/public/data/picture/windows share:E [106] and found the picture I copyed. So now I seems ok, but when I go in to the orbiter ( I thin it is named orbiter the window where I have a line at the bootom where I can pick media the picture.) And pres media then picture I get up 2 folders Flicker and Windows share E: . So I pick Windows share E: and it is emty.

1.What am I doing wrong?
2.Do I have to manually copy the files that I want to have on the mce ore can the core/hybrid scan the windows share fore files?
3.I see that in the flicker folder the picture is named xx.jpg.tnj, do I have to rename all my pictures?
4.I also copyed some videos to the folder public/data/video and I can find them but no thumbnails. Do I have to make some thumbnails for each of the videos? And if so is there a easy way to do this?
5. When I press the media butten and then manage Drives I get up 3 drives but they are all empty. Why?

nilspils...you would need to have Windows Server 2003 to set up the domain. i have a reasonable feeling that setting that up and starting an active directory domain controller may be a little over your head. its worth learning if you want to though. your first step would be getting a server to run windows server 2003 on. i believe the way he had it set up that would also be your file server with your shares...i may have misunderstood something though.

This is getting over my head. Is ther not a way to shear the windows shears with out creating a LSA account?
