I have a barebones T2. Can someone tell me how I could back up my settings to a usb thumb drive? (to use after a f/w update)

Thanks

Michael

Hi Michael, I didn't do anything special, but basically: 1. Map T4 HDD folder as H: drive on laptop 2. Log in to Plex and add H:\movie as a library folder 3. Set Plex to scan library folders for changes I think the difference is you are able to map it to the laptop first......Plex is on my NAS and ...

I was able to stream the raw TS file by mapping the T4 HDD in the library of Plex Hi Eafywan, how did you do this? I've been trying to get my T3 HDD mapped into a Plex library (NAS) but have been unable to. The library seems to be created, but reports no media found. I was wondering if I had the pa...

michaelp2005

Many thanks. Now I know what to do in future.

It's a barebones / no HDD model.

So, sounds like that's the problem.........ie not saved to any flash or other memory?

Hi

During the f/w upgrade I noticed that my T2 (barebones) is running considerably hotter than my T3.

Is this normal?

Thx
Michael

michaelp2005

Hi For the last two f/w upgrades, which I've done via usb, my T2 has not given me the option to restore my settings. The first time I thought maybe I'd done something to the backup, so this time I made sure to backup my settings immediately prior to updating. Note, my T3 had no problem and I was abl...

michaelp2005

usb seems to have worked, although it didn't find my settings backup so I have to setup from scratch again.

Thanks.

2) Wait for the next beta release. I have a fix for the performance issues that will be included in the next beta. Just checking, but my T2 has 4.4 20150624 installed on it. So does the fix you are referring to going to be on the next version? (looking in Beta forum, 20150624 seems to be the latest...

michaelp2005

Thanks. I don't have any mini pc's or Raspberry's set up. Did try researching the Pi's, but couldn't see an off the shelf solution :-) Maybe a NUC is the way to go in the future. But as long as they have IR, then I can integrate with my universal remotes (using irule and a pronto), which was a key c...

The T2 and T4 use a newer version of the Linux kernel than the T3. This newer version has a performance regression for SMB mounted drives, which could cause breakups on high bitrate footage. There are two things you can do: 1) Use NFS shares from your NAS instead of SMB/CIFS. 2) Wait for the next b...

Hi I just purchased a T2 to replace a P1. I also have a T3 and H1. What I've found is that video playback on the T2 (x264 mp4 files) are often pixelating ie going blocky at various times. I can play the same file on the T3 and the H1 without this pixelating. Given the T2 has more processing power th...

Hi Gully I have recently revamped my home media setups to in some ways to cater for yesterday today and a little of the future. My T3 takes place in my main viewing room and provides live TV and timeshiftimg (But not viewing recordings or network content) In each other location around the house I h...

michaelp2005

Thanks. At least I know now.

michaelp2005

I was playing a file I recorded on the T3 on a P1. Plays back fine, but when I pressed the right arrow to skip forward 30s it would appear to go forward, then end up going backwards. Press multiple times it would go forward somewhat, but can't tell exactly eg it might have skipped fwd a minute but b...

Thought I'd see if there was any progress with the developers on fixing this one? Some of my conversions to mkv have not been successful, so I'd love to have the T3 play avi files properly. There has been a HUGE rewrite of the firmware and a beta was released in mid-January to test it out. Among th...

michaelp2005

fyi I have applied the latest f/w update, and I still get the avi playback issues (in more of the high motion / speed scenes). However, I'm able to fix this by using mkvmerge and "technical term here" turning the avi file into mkv file........then if that really doesn't work (rarely/packed...

Takes a bit of getting used to after coming from a DP, but the CH buttons are generally reserved for skipping time periods rather than lists.

Many thanks. Simple thing, but makes my user experience better

michaelp2005

Sorting can have issues with folders that are not writable. I am not sure what the actual rules to that are though. There was a thread that discussed this if I recall. all folders are writeable. That's also why I checked the internal HDD ie where the T3 recordings are stored, as well as NAS. Also, ...

michaelp2005

When in the media player, with file list open, is there a quick way to scroll up and down eg page at a time, the list of files/recordings?

i.e. not one file at a time using the cursor keys.

In the old DP's, you could use the CH+/- button to page up or down, but that doesn't work with the T3.

Thanks

michaelp2005

Using the Media player, changing the sort by option does not work.

I have done a factory reset, and touch wood, the slow response to stop and file list building appears to have been fixed.

Let's hope it lasts

Given Peter's comments above, I'm not sure this is supposed to work, but it does :lol: I have two mountpoints setup, pointing to two different shared folders on my NAS. They are both set up as FSTAB mounts. I can switch between either folder using the location button to view/play files. I have compl...

I notice from another post that you're also having a problem with the file list taking a long time to display. Both those seem a bit odd. What is the NAS? Have you tried resetting everything. I've u unmount the nas from the t3, reboot both the nas and the t3 and then remount. Cheers I have not done...

My NAS access is read/write and I have not changed it.

I have actually copied a file from the T3 to the NAS (by accident

Correct, not dlna. Shares are mounted.

When I press the stop button, while watching a recording, it takes a whole second before there is any response on the T3 ie little blue circle on screen. It actually seems longer and makes me wonder if I actually pressed the button. Any reason for this slow response? Can it be fixed Then, not sure i...

When you say it plays through the Oppo 93, do you mean that you are using the Oppo as the media player using its inbuilt media capabilities. If so then that does not necessarily mean that the Oppo 93 can accept an AAC bitstream via HDMI. For example, my Denon 3313 can play AAC files using its media...

MP4's play fine with my Cubox i4Pro which is set to passthrough... So from that I can only assume that my sound system has no problem with it, Plus my Wiz DPP2 can play them just fine too, and it's also set to passthrough..! Would like to see something more definitive from an expert, on this one..?...

Firstly, thankyou for the replies. I've answered questions below. HDMI or S/PDIF? I'm assuming HDMI, because S/PDIF can't deliver more than 2 channels as PCM.

Hi I am having problems playing audio on files using AAC audio from my NAS. In a nutshell, when the AAC downmix is switched off (so I can pass thru to my processor), then there is no audio. If I switch the AAC downmix on, then I get audio. On most files, this is an ok workaround, because there is on...

I don't know of anything that does that. When it works properly, the easiest way to connect to a NAS that's serving WIndows shares is by using MENU>Setup>Network>Network Browser. Hi prl.

ok, bought a refurbished P1 from dealspace as they were on special. Will see how it goes.

Thankyou.

Many thanks Ian. I think it will be quicker to buy a new unit, thinking of the refurbished DP Lite i. (per my other thread

What is the difference between the Lite and the Lite-i, apart from price

I couldn't quite tell from the website.

Maybe the timeout can ...
