Vliegen

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.

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

 

Illegale praktijken met SMS-services

Zit ik vanavond in m’n auto terug te rijden naar huis, krijg ik een SMS. Nu gebeurt dat niet zo vaak meer dat ik een SMS krijg, dus dan ben ik wel benieuwd wie mij dan wel een SMS stuurt:

Het is gelukt, je bericht is verstuurd! Veel plezier met de chat! Kosten 1.50E/bericht max 2. Stoppen? Stuur STOP naar 7880

  • Vraag: Wat voor bericht heb ik verstuurd? Ik heb mijn outbox zelfs leeg!

Nog geen 2 minuten later:

Hi Wat leuk dat je reageert, had ik niet verwacht zo snel al! Doe je dit vaker? Is mijn eerste keer en ik vind het wel leuk moet ik zeggen, woon je in de buurt?

  • – Vraag: Hoezo reageren?
  • – Vraag: welke buurt?

Een uur later: (het derde bericht dus)

Hey, volgens mij woon ik vlak bij jou… vertel eens iets over jezelf. en heb je al leuke plannen voor komend weekend? (Gratis sms, mobdesk.com)

  • Vraag: hoezo woon ik dicht bij jou?
  • Antwoord: nee ik vertel niets over mezelf, rot op! Mijn weekend is mijn weekend en daar heb jij geen donder mee te maken

Morgen onze servicedesk maar eens op de hoogte stellen, want ik ben hier natuurlijk op een zakelijke GSM niet van gediend. Denk maar niet dat ik iets ga sturen, afmelden of wat dan ook! Stelletje oplichters daar bij wie het dan ook maar mag zijn ..

Hebben anderen wellicht een idee?

CH3SNAS: Volume_1 & Volume_2 (sda / sdb)

CH3SNAS when using 1 disk, no matter which slot you are using: it will always be Volume_1 (standard mode or normal mode). Under the hood the Volume_1 is a a symbolic link to sda or sdb. If inserted left Volume_1 is a symbolic link to sdb if inserted right: the disk is sda

So at the bottom: the sda and sdb will make a reverse change, so the user won’t notice it has changed

So if you want to have sda equal to Volume_1 in all circumstances: start using the HDD in the right HDD tray. 

LANDISK: RDC 2891 chipset

As a ‘source’ for the RDC 2882 and RDC 2891 chipset stuff (firmware / binaries, you name it)

I am releasing new stuff for the RDC 2891 chipset now 

SEPARATE FILES !!!

  • – LOADER
  • – KERNEL
  • – WEBINTERFACE

It is not for dummies, it’s ONLY for RDC 2891 chipset based LANDISKS and I do not give you any warranty if you brick your cheap device. Positive comments are welcome ;-)

Enjoy it. No explanation further how to use it: tftp or web-interface upload can work. I did not test it myself. 

CH3SNAS: Firmware release 1.03 Final

Please find in this entry the preview of the 1.03Final version just before it will be posted onto the official site at the end of this week.  Somewhere next week (but I will not be here in Europe)

This 1.03Final (2nd version) will be exact the same version when published at the Conceptronic driver website

The reason why it’s published here is to get valuable feedback from early adaptors so that a certain unseen important bug can be noticed before.

Our first version was withdrawn due to a nasty bug mentioned by early adaptors: data transferred could get corrupted. After getting a fix, there were still some issues left (rename folders causing an error message and ssl ftp did not work anymore), so therefore it took more time to release the 1.03Final version than expected. S O R R Y.

In this release some new added features and fixes compared to previous 1.03 version.

  • Fixed: formatting is stopping at 94%
  • Fixed: DHCP server issue offering IP to client
  • Fixed: Scan disk failure
  • Change: Changing cramfs into SquashFS
  • Added function:  fun_plug does not work on sdb2 : Fixed.
  • Fixed: data corruption (files getting bigger) when storing data with alternative tools (Total Commander etc).
  • Added: PureFTPD supports SIZE and MDTM 
  • Fixed: HDD1 unable to sleep in Raid1 mode
  • Added Request : FTP Server support option -O : ftp logging
  • Change: UPnP server: Refresh newly added files automatically,  so we removed the “Refresh” button and Auto Refresh Timer from the GUI. (enable / disable will re-index the total database) The database will not be updated when using FTP. This change will make the UPnP server run more stable.
  • Added Request : PureFTPD supports SSL
  • Added function: Scan Disk functionality

no guarantees & warranties ;-)
