Read every post in this thread to try and get to the bottom of my problem.. still no joy for me.. any help greatly recieved..

Win Vista NTFS share on 192.168.2.3 "rec" in root of C:
Dreambox 500-c on 192.168.2.2 running DK1.1
Belkin Wireless router gateway 192.168.2.1
Unable to get the directory to mount at all, through Web interface or In Mounts menu
Directory is shared and everyone is a co-owner
File and printer sharing is ON
Here's what I'm using in web-interface

Filesystem=1 Automount =1
Client /hdd/movie
Server rec
IP 192.168.2.3
Username box ( created user account on PC )
Pass (none created)

Can anyone spot anything i've missed ? I've turned windows firewall off no joy and wonder if it may be router settings or something.. BTW loving the new image .. ta

woooo I sorted it... password protected sharing was switched on, and i didn't give the 'box' account a password.

Quality is crappy though.. un-usable infact , audio and video freeze every 2-3 seconds for a second or so ... any tips ?

P.S. I'm using the 1.1 image, evocamd2.12 , and then new roms ... Also can I use DK1.1 to record via remote on my DM500-c or have i gotta use the web interface ? cant seem to use the green button thingy.. also how do i install addons ? No blue button thing.

Hi All,

i was sucessful mounting a windows xp pc share drive for recordings using the remote control as per Devilfish guide.

Now I am trying to mount a Landrive using a wired network connection to my network.
My pc can see and access the Landrive shared folder OK. i.e. \\SERVER-3703\TV

I have not set a password on this folder.

I have tried to mount using the web interface of my DM500c, but it FAILS to mount.

I have tried all kinds of variations of settings.

I have read all posts i can find re nas drives etc, and tried all kinds of combination but to no avail.
any help would be appreciated trying to get this to work.

Where am I going wrong?? These are the steps I followed.
==============================================
Open Browser on pc
enter the ip address of my Dreambox 192.168.1.20

login to enigma web interface of DM500c

Click on CONFIG Button - Click on MOUNT MANAGER Button


Description: LANDRIVE (is this field just a label ?)

Filesystem Type: 3 (0 = NFS, 1 = CIFS, 2 = DEVICE, 3 = SMBFS) (Do I use type 3 SMBFS for my landrive?)

Auto Mount: √ (Checked this box on)

Client Directory: /hdd/movie

Server Directory: SERVER-3703\TV
(this is the landrive shared folder I have not set a password on this folder, is this field case sensitive? also do i use \ or / for path extensions)

IP: 192.168.1.20 (this is my landrive ip address)

User Name: admin (username of Landrive)
Password: admin (password of Landrive )

Options: rsize=4096,wsize=4096 (left as default)

Hi All

Finally managed to mount debian linux NAS box running samba and DM500C with Digital Kaos image 1.1

This is how I did it

1) NAS Drive : add samba user with name in CAPITAL Letters e.g. DM
2) NAS Drive : add password to samba user name in CAPITAL Letters e.g. DM123
3) NAS Drive : Create a share directory with write permissions and guest access.
4) Dreambox : with web interface, added mount (smbshare) with client directory : /hdd/movie/

Record quality is excellent.

Cheers

Hi all,
well I finally got my setup to work.
I am using DW image on my DM500c

This is the setup that worked for me;
===========================================
Open Browser on pc
enter the ip address of my Dreambox 192.168.1.20

login to enigma web interface of DM500c

Click on CONFIG Button - Click on MOUNT MANAGER Button


Description: LANDRIVE

Filesystem Type: 3 (0 = NFS, 1 = CIFS, 2 = DEVICE, 3 = SMBFS)

Auto Mount: √ (Checked this box on)

Client Directory: /hdd/movie

Server Directory: TV (only enter the shared folder name )


IP: 192.168.1.20 (this is my landrive ip address)

User Name: admin (username of Landrive)
Password: admin (password of Landrive )

Options: rsize=4096,wsize=4096 (left as default)

atime:
execm:
noexec:
ro:
rw: √ (checked this box)
users:
nolock: √ (checked this box)
intr:
soft: √ (checked this box)
udp: √ (checked this box)


Click on SAVE button
click on MOUNT button

if it still showes Mount failed after 10 - 15 seconds then exit web interface and login again to web interface again.
drive should show that it is mounted.

I've followed the instructions and have succesfully recorded something onto my NAS drive from my Dreambox 500C. The file is named with the date, channel and program name. However, when I go into File Mode on the Dreambox, I don't see the recording or anything else much. When I use the <> buttons on the keypad, it seems to cycle through files in the /var/keys/ directory.

Any ideas how I can get to see my recordings. I'm using DW2.0. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi, thanks for your time and effort. I tried to connect my en500c to my pc following the instructions but to no avail. I cannot FTP either (using filezilla) but I can flash an image using dreamup. I just want to record onto my pc hd. Could Vista be the culprit ? I have a crossover cable directly connected to my box and a wireless router for my broadband, all of my settings are as you specify above but the box will not mount, please help

I have managed to setup my wirless adapter, and now i can wirelessley ftp into my DM500c. I have also managed to set up a mount, ok got the "mount ok!" message. However i now have no idea how to actually record to my pc or stream avi/mpeg files to my TV. Any hints? I pressed the blue button and i only have 4 options from ym plugins:

DreamNetCast Internet Radio
RSS newsreader
TuxBox
Teletext

thanks!

Trying myself to get it to record to ps3 running yellowdog linux, not too sure about xbox but cant see why it wouldn't work on xbmc
