tmiller Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 HC300 with Western Digital USB drive plugged in back with two folders Movies and Music. C4 Media Player. In composer the file network storage locataion is the USB drives root folder where both Movies and Music are located. Performed scan and can play music no problem. From the C4 on screen menu I select Watch, Movies, Select a movie, on the details page I select OK on the green arrow, inputs switch to media player and it shows the main screen with IP address and MAC address but does not play the movie.After reading some other posts I will try to answer some questions up front1) I tried DHCP and static IP outside of dynamic range and nothing2) Both the Media Player and the HC3000 are in same Cisco 4400N router3) I can access the folders and movies fine through the Network Storage tree node in Composer4) Movies were copied from drive of a friend also with C4 and they work fine there so they are of supported file type5) Tried various file typesAny thoughts before calling tech support?

tmiller Posted November 16, 2010 Author Share Posted November 16, 2010 I upgraded Director to 2.0.4 and it began working fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFUG Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 That makes little sense to me. Media Player has worked since 1.8 (for as little as I used the pile)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmiller Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 It didnt make sense to me either and when I found non working videos after I wasnt suprised. I discovered that the project was configured to scan the HD connected via USB to the HC300 as both the drive itself AND the Network File Storage. So it scanned the same drive twice. The media that was mapped via the NFS was working and the one that was mapped via the Western Digital drive wouldnt. So cleaning up media list now and will rescan with just NFS selected.
