Hi Ian, Yes it would be susceptible to the same electrobastardry, though I haven't noticed much of that lately. I just want a TV Guide that isn't polluted with thousands of shows I am never going to watch. Read my previous posts. What I'm proposing is something that has never been seen on a PVR befo...

Gully, I do use autotimers, but I also have to sort through all that dross just to find if there's any new series, specials, documentaries or movies I'd like to watch buried under that huge pile of drek. Peter, I think it would integrate into the current setup neatly. There's an empty space for a ne...

Hi Peter, Home Shopping, House Husbands, The Project, The Talk, Media Watch, The Musketeers, Hells Kitchen USA, RSPCA Animal Rescue, TV Shop - Home Shopping, Danoz, Sold On The Spot, Balls Of Steel Australia, Friemds, Black Jesus, Walker Texas Ranger, Global Shop, Skippy - The Bush Kangaroo, Diagnos...

I use open webif daily to check the program guide to select what I want to record and I love it to bits. The one thing I would LOVE to have is the ability to select a program I am NEVER going to watch and be able to hit a 'Never Show Me This Again' button. I'm constantly seeing programs like 'The Wo...

There is an ability in Win 10 to delete stored server login details. This should remove the necessity to use workarounds to access the root folder in machines using the new firmware. Press [Windows Key] X to bring up hidden command window. Select 'Command Prompt (Admin)' Copy this to the clipboard ...

Two-bob Guide to Windows Browse Master operation. Windows Peer to Peer Networking has always been a bit quick and dirty. One thing it used to do, and almost certainly still does, is all that guff about a Browse Master. The MS tech manuals from long ago (think W95, W98 or maybe even W3.11), explaine...

"You will notice that the error will mention something about connecting to the same resource as a different user. " Tried it - no banana. Even with the correct login and password. Not interested in learning telnet for one use. I'm 63 next month and too damn cranky. I'll try loading the upd...

Oh, I forgot. Editing the /etc/samba/smb.conf file is a good idea - AFTER I've got access to the root folder.

Chicken / Egg???

In my Windows 10 there is the option to login using different credentials. It didn't work. I got the syntax of your other suggested option wrong, so that didn't work either. Change Network Password: Whether to press OK or Exit is not obvious. The fact that going back in doesn't show me the last succ...

I read almost everything in the new firmware update forum when the update first came out, noted it down and used it to try to login into the CIFS root folder after upgrading. It's a shame it didn't work. The change network password option did work, but only on about the 25th attempt. That screen is ...

Hi All, I'm excited to try the new firmware, but won't be installing it anytime soon. I've fine-tuned so many settings that I really don't want to have to re-do all that work, I'd rather not have to re-enter all my carefully adjusted timers too. I'll wait until there's a way to keep most of my setti...

Thanks for the part no. DN0Q44QAH109A. I think it's DN(ZERO)Q44Q..... It's all a bit of a mystery. The only mention of it I can find through google is a wholesaler in China who sells them in minimum 1000 quantities. It seems to be made by a division of a division of Samsung. Samsung Electro-Mechanic...

Yes. Turning the top cover would put more vents at the left end and less at the right end. It would be a start. I imagine that the machine probably only consumes a couple of watts in shutdown - only the clock and the power supply are running. Even conduction through a totally sealed case could handl...

Yes, Peter, you're right about the fan. I set it to permanently on. Convectional cooling isn't going to do it - not with a box that compact and filled up with all that stuff. No desktop computer relies on convectional cooling, T4's can't do it either. I haven't used the tape as a permanent solution ...

I love my T4 and would like to contribute one of my own skills to making it a better product. So, take this as a contribution, not a criticism. System cooling is really lousy. Fortunately, it can be improved fairly easily and very cheaply. The problem is that there are too many vents in the box. The...
