I just formatted and install BT/Samba on a new HDD on my HDPro .
How do I add/create new folder and subfolder under the main directory?
Didn't see any add folder feature under copy file menu.
TQ

i need help here.. I could not connect to my WIFI router even though i key in the password already
otherwise all other features quite nice

what brand router?
what type Encryption set? if disable or WEP. can connect?

hmmm i'll try out later today again...
i'm using standard TM Net white color one...

I have noticed on my unit that if you do not broadcast the SSID from the router, the HDPro can detect the signal but cannot connect. Not sure if that's a bug or a hardware/firmware limitation. As soon as I broadcast the SSID, HDPro connects without a hitch.

i duno how to set SSID... what is that???
sorry noobie on networking here

Normally I use my computer to connect the HDPro (either through LAN or direct USB) and organise folders & files.
But if you intend to copy lots of files, I suggest you use direct USB.

I tried few times to copy a DVD ISO (about 4.5GB) over LAN but ended up failed, and the HDPro disconnected automatically, don't know why .....

hi bro Yangxi,

remember me? ur 1st HD pro buyer. been enjoying the unit ever since. suddenly got this problemtoday. when start up, tv display splash screen "hdd player". after that cannot detect signal liao ???? this when i used HDMI... but got display if i use component video. Have checked the cable - ok. check the tv HDMI port - oso ok. have oso update to latest firmware, still same. PLEASE HELP.

Bro, I am not sure where to start.

To check if your SSID (Service Set Identifier) is hidden or not, are you able to see your wifi ID from the HDPro network setup screen? If you can see your wifi ID the your problem is probably not the same as mine. Another way would be to check on the router's end if the SSID has been set to be "broadcast" or not. If it is set not to broadcast just enable it.

Its also probably good to turn of your WEP/WPA security to test connectivity before turning it on again. Always re-enable your security after testing to protect yourself.

Can I ask if your HDD in the HDPro is formated with FAT32 or NTFS?

Jason

tested without wifi locked it is ok... after WPE enable then i cannot connect

Instead of buying a USB wifi, I bought another wifi router, connect my HDPro to it, setup bridging-mode use WPA2 to connect with host router.

I noticed if fix the IP on HDPro, then map it to a drive on your PC, then it is easier and faster to organise folders/files.

try press restore default.

u update the latest MAY version?

yes. i have tried restore dafault & update to latest firmware.

Hi yangxi,

I've updated the latest firmware and saw so many online TV channels, but it seem like all of them always show "cannot play this" message, may I know how to make it work? Or we have to wait for next firmware upgrade?

Appreciate your further information sharing, thanks in advance!

Live TV still in beta stage.. might charge.

Any idea what is the charges? And who is charging us?
If the fees is reasonable, I don't mind seem there are loads of channels which I'm very interested in !

Please give more detail, thx!

Hi everyone, can anyone confirm that it decodes DD/DTS? Not pass through.

All player with 1073DD chipset can at least decode..
