    Network Sharing/Streaming SMB, UPNP, NFS

    Ping varied from 133 to 200ms over wifi with internal wifi. also the server is copying files from my PC over wifi to the server Hmm the server is split into Volume_1 and Volume_2 distinguishing between which drive of the 2 available bays it is. I wasn't entirely sure if I was correct the way I...

    Network Sharing/Streaming SMB, UPNP, NFS

    Hmm there are 49 instances of " NFS client not be allowed to mount the directory.IP = (pandora IP address) , Directory = /Volume_2"! The config is merely enable or disable NFS from what I can tell on the server, and it is enabled. I cant see any other information with it. Not sure...

    Network Sharing/Streaming SMB, UPNP, NFS

    Hmm okay, I tried this but each time it ended up timing out I do have some news though! Yesterday when testing all of the above I was also transferring videos to the NAS from my main PC. By the looks of things it was stealing most of the network bandwidth, Now today when I try connecting...

    Network Sharing/Streaming SMB, UPNP, NFS

    Yeah, I actually only tested XBMC with the internal wifi, the others were tested out with a Edimax EW-7811UN wifi dongle. Even stood 5 ft from the router it wasn't so great. I wouldn't say i have the newest router in the world but it will let me transfer files from a usb drive on my pc...

    Network Sharing/Streaming SMB, UPNP, NFS

    After a small conversation in the Firmware Suggestions thread on this subject I wanted to start a more searchable thread on this subject as I had some trouble finding much with great focus. To quote my post in that thread: The tl;dr is that, as an average windows user and a new linux user...

    Firmware suggestions and contributions

    It can, and yes, it was kind of a two sided post since the documentation/help part was relevant but the finer details of my experience were not! Great to hear about the linux tutorials though, thanks :)

    The adventure games just keep rolling!

    Adventure games always used to be my favourite. So glad to hear Jane Jensen is getting back in the game. Desperately hoping that we might see a Gabriel Knight 4. GK1 and 2 are pretty much two of my favourite games ever!

    Firmware suggestions and contributions

    Networking for new users like myself is a bit of a struggle. Personally I even struggle on Windows systems, let alone Linux so some kind of guide and documentation on this would be helpful. In my case, I was looking to connect my DLink Share Centre DNS-320 to my Pandora to hopefully stream...

    Death of a Console

    thanks for all the help guys. i've taken the temporary decision to sell my NTSC zelda twilight princess and buy a PAL one, rather than investing in a new gamecube. i have the wii so the second system was quite a luxury anyway. i wont throw my gamecube away but any repairs i do will have to be a...

    Longest living console?

    ha great thread! i did have but i have no idea where it is. it was faltering after my sister sent it on its second or third trip down the stairs at home, thank goodness for carpets! it potentially stopped working or at least become unreliable some time after i was bought a gameboy colour...

    Death of a Console

    T.T., i honestly wouldn't know where to begin with checking. i would need a special tool to get in there as far as i am aware. might just be easier to buy a second hand one. i'll definitely have to have a think about it. i am gonna have to decide between buying a PAL copy of zelda twilight...

    Death of a Console

    Yeah, I have pretty much avoided the XBox 360 since the RROD thing, although i get the impression the slim model these days is a lot more reliable. I was actually reluctant when getting into the current gen at all. I waited for the PS3 Slim, which seems more reliable than the original. The Wii...

    Death of a Console

    It is a sad day in my house today. The first console I bought myself as an adult, the console that reignited my love of gaming, indeed my very favourite console ever has failed me. My beloved Gamecube has developed a graphical fault and everything looks dark and out of focus and totally...

    Video Games Were Harder Back in the Day!

    i think difficulty has come down as a part of the luxury of game space memory. originally with most games you were thrown right in the mix and expected to build up your skills in the game by overcoming the initial and prolonged difficult obstacles. now we tend to have 2 or even 3 hours of...

    Release SuperZaxxon - Beta 1.1 released

    Reflashing isn't a problem right now and it sounds like the latest build allows you to use both the most recent Zaxxon hotfix and have an optional boot for SuperZaxxon. Its worth updating to the latest hotfix anyway. In terms of stability, there is probably gonna be a decent period of time...

    Media Player

    I installed Rockbox yesterday and its already my favourite player. The controls took a moment to work out but once I got going, I loved that it scanned my music drive (currently USB but I am planning to see if I can just wifi over a NAS), picked up all my music and the ID3 tags and I was good to...
