Installation issues / Re: No videos after install

« on: June 08, 2010, 05:57:11 pm »

Tried to do a complete reinstall last night and still doesn't work. It doesn't seem to ever find new devices and hardware; my other computer found network drives and a few other things as well as the external HD. I really don't care about the network drives but without access to my hard drive its really useless. 

Is there a reason this could happen?

Thanks,

Thanks for the quick reply,

The external drive isn`t prompting me when i connect it, but it is available in Kubuntu. The Update Media Daemon box is checked. What I meant about copying  to the video folder is that I put a movie onto the local HD video folder (in kubuntu) I figured that should show up but it.

Actually I tried linuxMCE on another of my less powerful computers yesterday and it prompted me with the hard drive and some other things but it lacked the power to do anything real on it so i installed it on this computer. This computer hasnt prompted me for any hardware yet.

Ideas ?

Thanks,

Installation issues / No videos after install

Hey Sorry maybe this is something simple Im missing. I have experience with software dev but am completely new to linux.

Ive been reading about linuxmce for a bit and finally sacrificed one of my computers to the cause. I am trying to get a reliable hybrid setup and then will experiment with MD. All my movies are on an external drive and for some reason everything works but external hard drives dont show up in manage drives and the videos aren't found. If i switch to the Kubuntu desktop i can find the external drive and open it. Also no videos are found at all by linuxmce (it does find DVD`s) I copied a movie into the videos folder and it also didnt show up.

Is there something obvious im missing ?

Thanks guys,
