Morgen mijn ‘air-miles’ weer aanvullen.. ‘even’ voor een meeting naar Barcelona ..

je moet er wat voor over hebben om mooie produktjes op de markt te kunnen zetten .. Zo heb je net 1 project afgesloten en begleid je de introductie zijn er alweer 3 of 4 nieuwe projecten aan de gang ..

Never a dull moment kun je wel zeggen …

Ben je net zoals ik een freak? We zoeken nog aardige, leuke, goed geschoolde collega’s, die het leuk vinden om van een muisje en een mediaspeler iets moois te maken ..  ;-)

CFULLHDMA: The Inside Images

Junkies always like to see the inside of a device. Today I made some images for you

Enjoy!

CFULLHDMA 1.09.04 Firmware [beta]

v01.09.04 [beta testers version]
this version is only interesting for those who want to play with NFS …

1. support NFS (experimental)

Support for NFS shares is added through the iMEDIA menu button
Add a new station: give it a name and enter for the address
nfs://ip-address:/path
for example when using CH3SNAS with NFS you can enter nfs://192.168.1.20:/mnt/HD_a2
when pressing ok you will notice that the ICON is still a blue circle, go out of this menu and go to the main menu or ie. setup menu. Re-enter the iMedia folder and the blue circle is changed into a folder. When entering this folder the actually mount of the NFS share is being executed
and you can access the NFS shares you have created in your exports file.

sidenote: if the icon has changed in a folder through the BGM button you can only edit the title, if you need to change the path, you have to enter a new station. If the icon is still the blue circle you can edit all through the BGM button

this feature is experimental and we are checking how to make it more userfriendly. But hey .. NFS itself is not really userfriendly ;-) its for linux geeks only, no linux box/nas no NFS

2. remove PowerOff warning/error message
3. fix small avi ( ~10M ) segmenataion fault issue from NAS

People who want to beta test can apply with a valid e-mail address in the comments.

De rampweek van XS4ALL

Was het eerder deze week de grote DSL (ATM) storing van het KPN (Bitstream) netwerk, zo hebben ze net aan het eind van de week alle abonnees een feestelijke mailing toegestuurd waarbij de abonnees oa. een T-Shirt kunnen aanvragen met een code die bovenaan het adresveld vermeld staat.

Net als ik zijn er honderden, zo niet duizenden abonnees (ik ben al jaren lid sinds het UUCP tijdperk) weer de dupe dat deze ‘unieke’ code niet zo uniek blijkt te zijn als dat het zou moeten.

Gezien de usenet group: xs4all.general ben ik niet de enige

XS4ALL, vertellen dat elk lid een leuk kadoo krijgt en je met deze ongein opzadelen is niet leuk!

CH3SNAS Firmware release 1.04RC1

Just released for those who like to test:

1.04RC1, if we get positive comments it will be released

Release notes:

We added/modified support for users and groups. The following does apply:

  • A user can be a member of more than one group
    There are, however, some restrictions:

under samba, user can see “ALL” folders which he has the right to access.
under ftp, user only can see “the last mentioned” folder which he has the right to access.

  • Workgroup can support any characters following the MS rule
  • The UPnP Server is supporting new additional formats like: FLAC, IFO, ISO, MKV, M2TS, VC1, DIVX, AAC, M4A, SUB, APE, FLV, DV.

Please test and send me updates about the instant update of the UPnP Database, there is no refresh or crontab anymore as content is instantly updated. But I need feedback if this is working properly.

  • Email alerts are now sent with valid hostname. Some SMTP servers did not accept the e-mails as a not valid hostname was sent.
  • Add support for RFC3834; the e-mail New mail header “Auto-Submitted: auto-generated” is added to the message header.
  • Add new function : clear printf queue, available at the menu optin Status -> Print Info
  • Fixing DNS name of NTP server like: 1.conceptronic.pool.ntp.org” it was wrongly treated as IP string
