Hi all xtreamer users, I am new in this thread. I was introduced by Soul on xtreamer, thanks for his sharing. smile.gif

I noticed the xtreamer website has changed, previously there were xtreamerPro and xtreamer sidewinder, why the new website shown xtreamer pro and xtreamer, and the xtreamer sidewinder is now at accessories section.

Are the previous xtreamer Pro and the current xtreamer Pro the same?

My budget is around RM 500 and I need only 1HDD with the similar feature, which one is recommended, I also noticed that xtreamer now support rmvb, that's cool and there's video stream online such as CNN, Yahoo News, NBC news, etc, that's fantastic

Thanks in advance.

Most of my music collection are ripped in Apple Lossless audio format (ALAC) stored in iMac via external HDD, may I know if XtreamerPro can support ALAC as I did not see ALAC in XtreamerPro's spec.

If ALAC is not supported, any possibility it will be supported in future firmware update? Currently I am using Squeezebox as my audio network media player connected to HIFI, it's good if XtreamerPro can be a backup device for audio besides video network media player.

I just got my Xtreamer Pro installed and have firmware updated. Awesome !

I have a small problem on Xtreamer Pro, I can view my Xtreamer Pro HDD from my iMac via LAN, copy and transfer files from my iMac to HDD, however, I can't access my iMac (I have set my iMac to share) via Xtreamer Pro, it pops up a small window on net user ID and password, I have entered my iMac user name and password, but I just can't access files inside the shared folder. Please enlighten me ...

Thanks in advance

that is a known issue. try using jukebox by benhur a slightly modified version (v1.35). much better then the one made by xtreamer.

Soulquarianz, I am using the latest jukebox (v 1.53), though I have cover art in movie directory, it won't load, it's kind of confusing even I read in forum xtreamer on movie jukebox.

I also try to upload via xtreamer web, no good. sad.gif

xt sidewinder fw2.4.2. i guess the reframe setting is too high, 12 reframe.

xt pro fw 2.4.2, mkv files with 24 to 29 fps. extremely smooth and stable.

If you use LAN how was it? Any good?  hmm.gif  rclxub.gif

Use UNIFI 5Mbps, most of the internet TV (SD) quite smooth, even Live TV; as for HD, you may need higher bandwidth (10Mbps)

Delete the entire xjukebox folder, reinstall v 1.53 jukebox, then go to xtreamer web to scan my favourite, it works ! Most of the movie now with cover art and movie data.

Try Live TV (Asia), there are asian (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) TV channels, SD though.

sad day...lost one of my SAMSUNG HDD suddenly....out of nothing the 1.5TB died..after i manage to arrange some files (lucky i was able to transfer around 300GB of file)

try to retrieve using apps but cant do much, just not able to read anything at all. serious damage..send warranty to samsung in PJ and must wait at least 1 month or more to get new replacement...

this is what happen when u abuse the HDD too much !
*
Sorry to hear that sad.gif

What kind of abuse on your HDD?

I think I should stop transferring files via network sharing (from my iMac to Xtreamer Pro) while watching movie, it may cause unnecessary lost chain or disfragment disc to keep the HDD healthy and longer life span.

Do you need to pay or register free to enjoy XVod??
pls share your experience.

Yes, you need to subscribe to Megavideo or Megaupload. Under the xVod configuration, enter Megavideo/Megaupload username, password, then xVod will generate cookies, then go back to xVod main page, you can select various movie libraries, some of them are in different languages, latino, english, etc.

For more details, watch the Xtreamer for Dummies' videoclip below smile.gif

Great. What is the subscription fees? and what internet speed are you using to stream the movies?
*
You can check at the various packages at megavideo or megaupload website. My internet speed is 5Mbps (UNIFI), most of the movies/series/anime are good, though there are some hiccups during video streaming, 10Mbps will be better.

Ok thanks for clearing that up. smile.gif

Anyway, anyone has change the LED remote for better angle reception from the player?
Tutorial was inside the Xtreamer forum.

Hmm, LED remote?

If you have ipod touch or iphone and using wifi router, xtreamer remote control plugin/apps., this app. able to control your xtreamer flawlessly.

Simply go to Xtreamer Media Server (at http://192.168.1.XXX/rc/main.php) or look for RC at bottom left corner. 192.168.1.XXX is your Xtreamer IP address. The Xtreamer Media Server screen is as shown below screenshot.

no uh i mean the infrared LED in front of xtreamer control.
normally you need to point straight to the player to make the remote send signal, if change the IR LED to a better quality, the sensor will become wide so no need to point straight.

but im not sure which IR LED should i search for..
*
I see ...

If you have wifi xtreamer plugin with ipod touch/iphone, you don't even need to point to xtreamer.
