all good thanks people - Mark has been in contact

dddp

According to the information that Mark supplies, they use different power supplies. On Mark’s Beyonwiz PVR repair guides page on his Decisive Computer Solutions website, the DP-P2 uses an IP-100 power supply & the FV-L1 & DP-P1 uses an IP-108 power supply. Thanks, I did see that before but ...

dddp

Haven't as yet had a reply to my email. Thinking of taking out the power supply from my FL-V1 (firmware modded so it runs as a P1 as per my signature below) that's hardly ever gets used and putting it into the dead P2. Does anyone know if they are actually interchangeable? If they are, I'll just swa...

dddp

... Any help very much appreciated, cheers If you switch the unit off at the power point for a while then remove the cover you may be able to see if any electrolytic capacitors in the power supply are swollen at the top (the electrolytic caps should be flat on the top, but that doesn’t mean they ha...

dddp

I had forgotten the name of his business. I'll contact him and see how it works out.

Many thanks for your help gentleman, cheers

dddp

The other halfs P2 decided to present this when it was turned on. Appears it's probably related to a failed power supply section component? What actually happens when your turn it on is the display shows "loading" for a slightly longer period of time than normal and then it shows the error...

Wondering what time frequency Icetv EPG updates happen from the Icetv server? Is it every 15mins?

dddp

given the reference to apple decices above, can the T3 handle the apple lossless format?

dddp

I think you should base any purchase decisions based on capabilities at the time of purchase, not on something where the parties involved in the possible future features "can't give you a timeframe". decided to cancel the order this morning there's a few things that are must haves for me ...

I cannot understand this post when there are 3 pages of this topic all about IceTV.

nothing recently relevant though, and still no word on official support

dddp

Can't understand why no one else has posted about Icetv support on the T3

seriously considering cancelling my order as the ability to use Icetv is a primary requirement for me and it seem Icetv isn't happening on the T3 officially at least

dddp

Why not run getWizPnP on the T3? The files could be converted as they are being copied from the P2 drive to the T3. Perl is available, what else would be needed? (Besides a UI). sounds like the go to me - much better than transferring from P2 to Pc and then to T3 i'd imagine there'd be a viable mar...

dddp

be nice if it can - i'd like to connect my P2 drive to the T3 and copy across a bunch of files i'd like to have on the T3 internal HDD i was thinking of pulling my P2 drive out of my P2 and putting it in an external usb box and plugging it into the T3. Then after the copying process is complete, put...

dddp

I have a locked file on my P1 (actually a dealspace modded FV_L1 running P1 firmware) that i want to delete but as i don't know the lock code I can't or don't know how to delete this file i don't know who the smartar$e was who locked it, but i want it gone - is it possible to delete this file somehow?

dddp

thank you gents, how does one telnet into the unit? Can you point me in the right direction please? You first need to enable the telnet server on the Beyonwiz by installing hacked firmware. Then you can use any telnet client (there's a telnet command-line client in Windows) to connect. Once connect...

dddp

Hi, The reason for the display brightness being higher on your new unit v's old unit is that P2 displays deteriorate over time and the backlight reduces as they age. I have seen this in most P2 units and P1 units. The display seems to get burn or heat marks on it if you look at the front of it and ...

dddp

thank you gents, how does one telnet into the unit?

Can you point me in the right direction please?

dddp

might have to resort to ghetto modding with some tinted plastic

display brightness is fine when on standby, just a bit too bright when it's on

dddp

yep, a good result

one thing i've noticed is that the front panel display is quite bright - much brighter than my old P2. Is there any way to dim this down at all? I can't find any info about dimming in the manual.

dddp

tried the BR02 remote again and now it's working!

thanks to sub3R for the suggestion to retry it - unit responds and is service scanning now

hopefully it hangs in there all weekend

be much quicker to get a replacement remote than the whole unit!

dddp

thanks for the tip about being able to see the IR with a camera - it works fine in any mode

yep, also tried other new batteries

also put remote less than 30cms in front of unit and scanned across it

dddp

Also, after i bought this at $199 of course, they now have these on special for $139 plus shipping! Pretty much a bargain price .... if the one you get works

Thought about a lite model, but i really want front panel display

dddp

Bought one of these and it arrived today, Unpacked it and everything looks fine. The remote looks new. The problem is the unit doesn't respond at all to any commands of the remote. I've set the remote to control my telly and it works fine at that. But the unit doesn't respond at all. I also have a D...

That is another, excellent, idea.

Regards,

yep, think i'll get him to 'do' the power supply as well as the HDD replacement

dddp

thanks for the reply Ian can't find the receipt at the moment, but the 320gb models had just gone superseded when i bought it. My first posts here go back to feb 2009 so i'd guess it would be around that date yes i know it could be the hdd, but the hdd is working fine and not making any odd sounds. ...

dddp

Going back to the original post, has anyone installed a SSHD into their PVR? I know they are expensive but I too have had problems with annoying hums from all my PVR's. you can isolate th HDD with rubber grommets/washers - they make the HDD all but silent when it's operating. A whole lot simpler an...

dddp

Well, this is what's happening, as of tonight every time i boot my P2 up i get the check HDD warning. The HDD gets checked and everything's fine. I guess the problem is that unless i leave the P2 on all the time it won't fire up to record my timers and so these will fail - i'll be leaving it ON unti...

dddp

Alternatively, you could get a 500GB DP-Lite. Different codeset from the P2, and less expensive, too. $299 new from Dealspace, vs $499 for a new 1TB P2 from the same source or $399 for a reconditioned 500GB P2. i think this is probably the best option really - i see dealspace has the i model recon ...

dddp

Thinking of getting another P2 which will live in the same cabinet as my old 320gb P2 (HDD upgraded to 500gb) and was wondering if it's possible to set the remote to separate units so operating one P2 won't operate the other P2 - is this possible? i'm one of those people who prefer to use the origin...

dddp

as other's have already said - it's a sad state of affairs when the people responsible for providing owners with support won't publicly provide firmware that fixes a problem that a firmware that they publicly provide creates my time on hold of a few minutes short of an hour to get the 346 version is...

dddp

thanks Ian, that's got most of the files working - seems the ones that don't are the edited ones, name is different to original name, full episodes are no problem as i tend to save a lot of music files i'll have to remember to export the original, or a copy of it, rather than an edited section/versi...

dddp

had a problem with WZ not working and the log telling me that settings.exe was missing - no matter what i tried i couldn't get it to work (unistalled, reinstalled). By work i mean to actually download a file from my P2 - it would connect and all the info showed just fine but no file transfers happen...

dddp

i'm going back to 320 - tried 334 had problems with network transfers, rang DPG on hold for almost an hour and got 336. 336 hasn't fixed network transfers for me so back to 320 i go wish there was a way to save timers so they could be reloaded when changing firmware versions - it isn't a simple proc...

dddp

okies - sorry if i got anyone in trouble, specially you glow sometimes i really wonder if it's worth it all - you think, oh this looks nice think i'll try that ... hours and hours later you find you've actually gone backwards seeing as most of my posts here in this thread could be considered off top...

dddp

to save a bit of time - if anyone has a copy of .346 and can email it i would be very happy to receive a copy, just pm me and i'll tell you my isp email address

cheers

dddp

looks like it's time to revert to .320 (i keep previous versions in case the source disappears) - what a PITA after having to reload all the timers etc. If you give DPG a call, explain that you are having trouble with copying files off using WizFX/WizZilla and ask nicely, they might give you a late...

all is revealed - yes it's 01.05.334 alrighty - as usual everyone's on the money except me :? looks like it's time to revert to .320 (i keep previous versions in case the source disappears) - what a PITA after having to reload all the timers etc. I've been lucky in the past i haven't come across iss...

dddp

I'm way, way late to the WizZilla party, having come across a reference to it in another post and Googled it out of curiosity, only to realise I'd tried it way back when, in one of its earliest incarnation! I have to say, BRILLIANT job guys. Really impressive. The list of recordings with episode na...

i was reading this page http://www.beyonwiz.com.au/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?p=45862 it doesn't say there that options aren't selectable - thought that would be the place to find what's what. i only tried this because some users reported wizfx wasn't working for them under the lastest firmware update, th...

dddp

1st time WizZilla 1.1.0.60 user here - nice looking UI, much better than WizFX. It gives me all the info about what recordings i have on my wiz, episode info etc. There's just one problem tho, I can't use it to transfer files from my wiz. I select a file to download, hit the download button or choos...

dddp

Ok, working fine in static IP now 2 settings were wrong, DNS and the Gateway (why i didn't notice this before i don't know lol) in the static settings. I made them both the same, as they are if DHCP is enabled, and hey presto it works! no more error messages and the P2 is showing the correct time! m...

dddp

if i enable DHCP i get a DNS of 192.168.1.254

i'd like to set a static IP of 192.168.1.7 - if i enter the DNS same as above i get an error message on the time

edit, you guys are right, it seems it is DNS related - if i enable DHCP i get no error messages - would really rather a static IP tho

dddp

still getting error messages - they are error: name or service not known todays date and time ntpdate[99]: can't find host au.pool.ntp.org todays date and time ntpdate[99]: no servers can be used, exiting edit, updated to the 1.05.334 'by the book', rescan etc prior to this - may have been getting t...

thanks for the answers and the server name my P2 is connected to a 4 port wireless router http://www.repotec.com/products/WirelessLAN/802_11n/RP_WR5422/RP_WR5422_1.asp (it also connects my wdtv and lg bluray player to the network) which in turn connects wirelessly to my billion 7403vgp. It all works...

dddp

I noticed that i was getting error messages in the network time setting section, the message was something like the server couldn't be found and so it was exiting. So i thought i'd just bung in another time server, time.windows.com or 207.46.130.100 but i also get an error message here too. The mess...
