I am assuming that you are using the Plex "Live TV and DVR" feature, which leverages on the T4's ability to emulate a HDHomerun device via the "HRTunerProxy" plugin. The Samba bit is a little less clear, but I am guessing that means that you are getting Plex to also share out rec...

MrQuade

You'll also need to ensure that both devices have a manually configured IP address in the same subnet so that they can talk to eachother.
Without a router/DHCP server in between, their automatic IP assignments won't be made.

MrQuade

That's more than enough - sorry to post such a long bunch of stuff, but as I said, someone might find somethign useful. I read....about 3/4 of that. wow..... In all seriousness though, could you post a couple of "highlights" or Cliffs Notes at the beginning of the post to summarise the co...

MrQuade

WD Elements SE 1TB USB3.0 Portable Hard Drive If that's your only HDD, then it should not be formatted as FAT32. It should be formatted as ext4 by the V2. This will then make it unreadable if you plugged it into a Windows PC though, but FAT32 lacks the features required for advanced timeshift opera...

MrQuade

Whatever the problem is, it won't be the capacity. The U4 supports practically unlimited size disks (like in the exabyte range). You may want to try deleting all the partitions from the disk using your PC before trying to use it on the U4 in case there is something whacky going on with the partition...

I said almost because when it comes to editing a list of favorites I can't see how to make a selection move up/down. I can see what is scheduled to be recorded and what has and they all play perfectly. It's a "click-and-drag" operation, which is bit hard to do with a touchscreen interface...

MrQuade

It's also possible that there is a DNS resolution issue on TheOldMan's network.

The http://beyonwizv2 wouldn't resolve in a web browser if there were DNS problems, but Windows would still be able to discover the V2 and list it in Windows Explorer.

MrQuade

I have no idea as to what it's set to because nether the V2's remote or the Logitech Harmony 650 remote has volume control that does anything at all. Yet ALL other buttons on both both remotes work. The 650 even displays a small signal in bottom right corner that its sending a signal. You probably ...

MrQuade

You still haven't responded to the questions and suggestions already put forward.

Turn off downmixing.
Set the V2's volume to a couple of clicks below maximum.

With that setting, all channels should sound about the same.

Can you please confirm that this is, or is not the case for you?

MrQuade

Yep. You just whack the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port in the back of the V2. It should automatically get a dynamic IP address from your router and "just work". You can also manually assign an IP address in the V2 if you like, or even better, configure your router's DHCP server to g...

You need to make the export read/write. Try:
/media/hdd *(rw,sync)

Try (rw,sync,no_root_squash)

My U4 is connected to the IQ4 through a UHD splitter but the TV Foxtel feed is limited to 1080p if the U4 input is connected or 2160p elsewise.

Correct, the U4 has always only ever supported up to Full-HD resolution, not UHD.

That was it (1st quote).

Wow, completely missed it!

MrQuade

I was talking about the "/etc/exports" file. This is the one that defines the NFS share.

MrQuade

Does the V2 support HDCP encryption from other devices such as their iQ4? As prl pointed out, the V2 has no HDMI-IN, so the point is moot. But as-per the reply to your earlier question about the U4, you would need to use a HDMI splitter to allow stripping the HDCP protection off the HDMI stream for...

MrQuade

What does the "exports" file on each V2 contain?

The filesystem needs to be exported as "rw".

MrQuade

I am now watching a recorded program. I see the icon flashing during playback. I am wondering if the flashing icon is in the recording, or happening on screen. I jump back to rewatch the section where I saw the flashing and it was not there. That's means it's happening again live on screen. I cover...

MrQuade

I recently scanned in the 7Bravo channel 75 to my DP2 - and found that I have no audio on this channel. Picture is fine, just no sound. All other channels functioning normally. I've rebooted, re-scanned and played around with settings - nothing seems to fix the issue. Any ideas, please? 7 Bravo bro...

Doonks says that it happens even if there are no batteries in the remote.

Removing batteries doesn't rule out a rogue source of IR which was the first step of identification.

MrQuade

Could be another stray source of RF in the room. You can try covering the V2's receiver to see if it still happens. If it still happens with the receiver covered, then it is probably a fault with the V2's IR receiver or front panel. My second V2 "picks up" a stream of "ARROW DOWN"...

MrQuade

You can see that the screen of the 650 remote displays a small icon in corner of its screen which suggests that it's either sending a sending or trying to the V2 but it's getting no response from the V2. So, the 650 remote is sending a signal that isn't being read by the V2? The remote control can'...

MrQuade

I am still having problems with audio volume changing wildly from one recorded program to the next. Have you followed PeterU's advice from this thread ? Set your V2's volume control to 2 or three steps from maximum volume and leave it at that setting. Do not adjust the V2's volume controls once set...

MrQuade

Well none of those changes made any improvement (30 second lease time in router, IP6 disabled on the Win10 Laptop, & deleted WIZU401_Movie share & created new WIZU4Movie share). Did you reboot all your STBs and PCs after making the DHCP lease time change? You'd need to do that to ensure the...

MrQuade

All my devices have globally unique ipv6 addresses issued from my ISP, and I have not had any trouble with it. YMMV with various routers and end devices though.

MrQuade

Your suggestion; “Use a DHCP lease time of around 30 minutes.” is interesting. I have DHCP lease time set to 21 days, which is the maximum. Yea, don't do that. With that setting at 21 days, if your router (with DNS and DHCP server running) reboots, then it could be up to 10 days before one or more ...

MrQuade

I then went to see if there was a system restore but there isn't one. I have already clicked on EVERY folder and any sub menu folders they might have but I can't find any movie folder. Any ideas? You need to make sure that you reboot the V2 as well so that the drive is correctly mapped as the "...

MrQuade

maybe it is because the EPGRefresh and Series2Folder plugins are missing as the 'restore from backup' didnt work!? Just a reminder that the the settings backup, while it will back-up a plugin's settings, does not actually back-up the plugin itself. The plugins will always need to be re-installed ma...

MrQuade

Unfortunately, I've not been able to get the V2 to reinstall the firmware from a USB. Every time you select "Recovery from USB" after less than a second there is an error message "Error downloading file" and the panel on the V2 says "E02". Are there any other suggestio...

MrQuade

Any idea what might be going on? Someone on your isp probably had a malware infection that resulted in their then-address being flagged as a source of spam. Either that or a while block of your isp's addresses were responsible for the spread of spam and were flagged. The forums make use of a servic...

MrQuade

You could try something like this to record it on your PC.

EBay link.

Can't speak for the quality or usability though.

MrQuade

Sounds a if there was no HDD installed in the V2, and a recording then went and filled up all your flash memory, making it impossible the the UI to write new files and continue to run. That, on its own, won't fill the flash. The V2 will run just fine as a diskless set-top box. After the flash had b...

The misleading thing is that when opkg update runs, it doesn't remove cached information about plugins whose feed servers can't be reached, so when the Download plugins screen is accessed, it still lists the plugins, even though they can't be downloaded. If you try to download one of the plugins (l...

None of the beyonwiz.org feeds (feeds.beyonwiz.org, beta.beyonwiz.org) are working. The recent picons update came from the https://peteru.net/picons feed, which is working. Hmm, I was misled by the fact I could fetch a list of downloadable plugins. Looking closer now, there is also a "backup f...

The beyonwiz.org domain name has been taken over by cybersquatters. It seems that they have snapped it up using a bot, so I never stood a chance when trying to register it manually. As a result, all the feeds pointing to beyonwiz.org should be considered as compromised and a possible injection vect...

MrQuade

You'd also need to ensure that the timeshift directory is pointed at the USB drive too. Timeshift is separate from the recording folders and is what is required to pause and rewind live TV. I don't know why your settings would be forgotten between reboots or power loss though. That shouldn't happen.

MrQuade

IanSav has suggested to me that it's possible to reclaim a pirated domain name by contacting the registrar with the details of the original owner (presumably including some evidence of the prior registration). He said that it's a process he's gone through himself. Is it piracy if they simply acquir...

MrQuade

Short of paying the ransom, wouldn't you have to register a new domain (openwiz, neowiz, freewiz?) and push out an updated USB image, and/or a manual patch script to update all the feed URLs.

Not going to help anyone who doesn't read the forums though.

MrQuade

Try a different HDMI cable. You should ensure that it is rated at HDMI 2.0 or certified as "Premium High Speed" to ensure that you won't have any trouble at up to 2160p 60Hz HDR. A regular "High Speed" HDMI 1.4 cable will work for 2160p 50/60Hz non-HDR content, which is more than...

I don't suppose anyone knows much about the V2 front panel. One of mine has gone a bit wiggy. Some segments on the display have stopped working, as well as the power button. I noticed the button was gone today, when I went to reflash OpenATV onto my beta V2 unit. I opened it up to have a peek to loo...

Mine is still logged in as secure. Delete the saved password for http: and make sure you use the https:...

MrQuade

Yes. Your client devices should be able to roam between the access points when they are configured with the same SSID. (Though it may not always behave exactly as you'd want it to, some devices do like to stubbornly hold onto a weaker signal)

MrQuade

AND MY AXE!

MrQuade

The mandatory password is only for ftp/telnet/ssh/SCP connections, not the SMB share.

There is no password on the SMB share by default.

If your device requires you to enter one, then you should be able to put in any dummy name and password.

MrQuade

The Telsta router wifi is completely different SSID.

Ok, no worries. Just the way you initially described it, it sounded like devices were switching automatically to the Bigpond WiFi which made it seem like the two WiFi domains were linked together.

MrQuade

MrQuade,you are correct in pointing out the dangers of having two routers on the sane network. Double NAT is not something to be attempted lightly. I use this method because Telstra routers are traditionally security challenged. I have to use the Telstra router as it provides my land line and has t...

MrQuade

If the access point is allocating addresses as well as the router allocating addresses doesn't that mean they are both running DHCP servers? Yes, well spotted. The issue with the access point was it tried to allocate the address 192.xxx,xxx.50 to my phone as a wireless connection but the router had...

MrQuade

For the record, my RT-AC86U has been a solid performer, and I have never been able to reproduce this specific mount issue in all the years it has been reported. The DHCP delay I experience remains a mystery. It appears like the delay in issuing addresses is only in the order of a hundred millisecond...
