AJ_ Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Anyone know how to set Dune so that it always starts at the MyMovies favorite icon (Favorites) or at the MyMovies home page? Also, I'm having an issue. Everytime I start MyMovies and select a movie the first time, the control goes back to the Dune interface. After this, it's good. I'm using DiamondDesign's driver. Thanks!!

digitaltrader Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I would love to be able to goto mymovies directly with a single button press, but as far as I am aware its not possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgbrown Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 WHat exactly is the issue ? Can you see the files in the share from the Dune using the network browser ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulknapp Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 2 issues, first, I can't see the files in the folders when I browse using uPnP or SMB. The other is that when I click on the network folder, I get an error message; "Network resource is not accessible." Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgbrown Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 If you browse that same smb share from a windows computer using the guest login with no password (as in the Dune config) can you see the files ? Also, I would recommend setting up a named user on the nas (with a password) for the dune to use - make SURE it allows R/O access to the share.

ms2bmw Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Don't use the absolute path. I mentioned that in your other thread if you read it. Use the share path (\\share\<sub-folder(s)\MyMovies). Make sure user you are using has permission to read that folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulknapp Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Yes I did read it, unfortunately I wasn't sure how to apply it.My Network Folder entry now reads:\\video\dune\My MoviesIs that right?Sorry, it seems I only know just enought to get myself in trouble...thanks so much for your help and patience.Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgbrown Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Did u check the permissions from another computer like I suggested in post 6 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulknapp Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Yes, I am able to browse and access all the files via my windows computer using the guest login. I also tried giving the dune it's own username and password with the same results. -PaulIf you browse that same smb share from a windows computer using the guest login with no password (as in the Dune config) can you see the files ?

I used the guest account and was able to open and browse all of the video files.It seems to be a Dune/Synology issue. (or possible user...)

Thanks!!That's a bug of some sort. Wait 10 seconds before selecting the movie and it won't happen. It's like the Dune needs to go and retreive the file path or something. It happens frequently on long file names. Let the name scroll a few times then it won't crash. That's how it works for me at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see I'm not the only one. Maybe dune can fix this with a firmware update. Anyone report this to them yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neeshu Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I am having a similar issue trying to setup my movies with my dune. I can access the folders and files file with nfs and can pull up the movie info, but I wasn't sure how to play the movie. When I hit play it appears as if everything locks up and then I get a URL error message. Is there somewhere I have to setup a separate path for each movie in my movies?Also, not all my movies show up on the dune. It appears only the A's, B's, H's, and some of the R's. Know of anything I can try next? I have been reading a lot on the forums to try and figure this out, but still struggling. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
