JerryR Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Does anyone in here have pretty decent knowledge of the Dune HD players? I have one on my home C4 network and it's fantastic. So I wanted to get one to put in our cabin to play movies. I'm trying to get connected to it from a Mac on our network but having trouble. Looking for help to figure out how to access it in the Mac finder, then transfer files from my Mac onto the USB connected hard drive. Any assistance is appreciated!

mstafford388 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Do you have a way to plug the hard drive right into the MAC for the file transfer? that seems like a better way to attack this. Also, I'm pretty sure Dune can't play MV4 which is iTunes's typical file type so you'd need to convert it to something else, just FYI.

JerryR Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 I did transfer a number of videos straight to the HDD by connecting to the Mac. The issue is now those won't play on the Dune. The Dune I have at home works great because clearly someone smarter than me set it up and got it going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstafford388 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Do you see the files in the Dune and they just wont play or do you not even see them at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryR Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 I can see the files pop up and then when you select them it just shows the symbol of the clock like they are waiting to load. At home I can also access the Dune from my computer and copy files into it from there. Was hoping to get that setup to, but just being able to play videos Seems like Priority A.

mstafford388 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 What are the file types? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryR Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 .MKV files. Which I know the Dune handles. They are actually the same file that play on my other Dune. So I know the files are good in that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
