ERDrPC Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Has anyone who is using a dune been able to modify it so that there is a nice GUI like XBMC? I'd rather use that type of GUI vs the C4 standard media selection (cover art) GUI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do some of these guys actually spend anytime watching the movies? I mean with 250 blu ray's to backup, Mymovie tweaking, Dune firmware upgrading and setup,then we add C4 integration on top of that....red ray disks and 4D format will be out and we'll be onto the hologram players..

akg4y Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 MyMovies is a pay interface right? So nothing like YAMJ that is free is available? That thread is ridiculously long.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wappinghigh Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Sure. I've also got codes. He won't have a prob. doing it. I'd be happy to make it avail. But don't know how, and don't want to get into that 'who owns the driver user vs dealer thing' actually another dealer near me has (alledgedly) done a driver but it's not available apparently. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecodeman Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 I can send you the IR driver I have. Nothing special. May need to edit repeat counts. It's the IP driver in time that you'll want anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the IP driver in time that you'll want anyway That would be great. Thanks. Unbelievably helpful( as usual ) let me know if it costs any. I agree- and when the IP is ready, also more than happy to part with some cash! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidrab Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 I can send you the IR driver I have. Nothing special. May need to edit repeat counts. It's the IP driver in time that you'll want anyway The control of the Dune in my friends system will act multiple times on a key press (it's like your pressing a key three times). Is this what you mean by repeat counts? Is that something an end user can change or will the dealer have to fix it?Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveC4 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 You need Composer Pro to edit the repeat counts. It sounds like that's the problem he's having... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pharmdsmith Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 We had a customer with the same issue. Lowering the repeat counts fixed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wappinghigh Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Hey guys.Since Dune formats disks using Linux (Ext2), this is great news for mac heads. The Base has an Internal HDD slot. (Like the ones you see on multi drive NAS units) You just slide a 3.5 inch WD green 2.O TB HDD right on in there and presto....mount the disk on your mac using SAMBA ( via your network) This gives read/write access straight onto the Dune via OSX. Who needs NTFS anyway! There is also a great OSX based Dune scrapper out there (Like myMovies), that scraps right onto the Dune HDD. I also assume the internal EXt2 formatted HDD in a Dune could act as a share for a Conrol4 media player...but I'll need to check this out (or someone to confirm if this is possible).I know there are alot of folk on this forum who think that NAS streaming is the way to go, but for those who need a simpler solution, where the movie "backup's" play right off the player(independant of network streaming) this might be for you. Also if you want to move a whole player, or the library for true off site backup via a pull out 2TB HDD...to another Dune at a different location (like a holiday home or condo, where there is no LAN), this is a great solution. ...Oh and no more network streaming hassles! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
