over all its a good beta player, but some videos, that played well on the previous player, are pixelated and choppy

Why can't we have a better

maryadavis — Mon, 12 May 2008 20:31:00 +0000

Why can't we have a better version of Stage 6 instead of searching for alternates? As long as there's a great demand there should be a better product as well. Right?

Can there be a conflict

maryadavis — Mon, 12 May 2008 20:28:09 +0000

Can there be a conflict between this pack of codecs and others that I previously installed? I see all my movies upside down. This is really funny until the point where I really want to see a movie without needing to put my monitor upside down.

Is the link broken? I can't

maryadavis — Mon, 12 May 2008 20:19:00 +0000

Is the link broken? I can't seem to download the application. I tried everything, I changed my firewall options but nothing. Have any of you experience this? Maybe something is terribly wrong over at my end...

These things are not that obvious until after you know them

dsalmonsen — Mon, 12 May 2008 19:25:00 +0000

Refer to the remote reference guide for more tips that will help you get the most out of Connected.

The 'menu' button is one that you will want to press in any situation where you want to do something, but are not sure how. It will likely provide the option you are looking for. With each new server release, there is usually some new features added that expands its use.

Also, the 'Enter' button and arrow buttons and number buttons usually provide some helpful features depending on the what you are viewing.

See the remote control hints here:

There is a stick post at the top of the list for subtitles

In it is a solution for the accented character issues.

Hi can any one help as i do nothave a clue whatim doing. im trying to find out if the codec problem has been sorted out 6.8.2
please can any one help

Awesome!!

abezza — Mon, 12 May 2008 09:23:19 +0000

I definitely like the new Codec. My system yet again seems to be performing marginally smoother with each codec release (this is especially important as I am running a not so powerful Dual Core).

Keep up the good work!!

Trick Play

abezza — Mon, 12 May 2008 09:19:29 +0000

Hi There, I definitely like the new player. I have noticed a huge improvement yet again in visual quality over the previous player - picture seemed sharper when there are fast moving objects. I would like to say that the Trick Play on my lap on works well when fast forwarding not on the rewind.

Not sure if it is due to my gutless laptop or whether further refinement is required, but I did notice you mentioned only fastforward is smooth and nothing about rewind (so assume its just further refinement).

Just thought I'd let you know. I am running a Dell 1501 laptop with an AMD Dual Core TL56 chip, Radeon Xpress 1150 plus 2gigs of RAM and am running Vista (not exactly earth shattering but does chug a long ok for a basic system).

Nice work for a Beta. Keep up the great work!!

Hi dsalmonsen.. I'm just

cathal — Mon, 12 May 2008 08:47:12 +0000

Hi dsalmonsen..

I'm just running the standard windows xp home edition.. have got the latest drivers.. latest connected software.. I have tried everything to get this working.. I'd also sent a DivX Diagnostics to the guys on here.. and that was months ago.. i've yet to be offered a solution.. I'm very disappointed that I can't get the best out of what my system has to offer..

No API key required?

warwound — Sun, 11 May 2008 23:27:08 +0000

The subject says it all...

Was having a look at the HTM source and noticed that there's no API key specified.

Had a look on the Google Maps API Google Group and found no mention of DivX Connected.

Is there no need for a Google Maps API key?
Does the DivX Connected server run as localhost therefore no key required?

Martin.

Good news but what hardware we need?

pgeorge — Sun, 11 May 2008 21:47:36 +0000

This is very good new but I wonder what hardware is needed to play a video encoded with the latest DivX codec. I used to use Cole2k Media codec pack but almost always something got mixed up so I quit using it. Just install some base codecs linke DivX and AC3 and see everything.

Free Software Downloads

Hello, I am testing DivX

francoisb — Sun, 11 May 2008 12:38:19 +0000

Hello,

I am testing DivX connected using the free server and client software before purchasing a proper box.

I also experience the problem described above with all French subtitles (most lines just does not display, the ones with accented characters apparently, no difference if the srt file is registered in the metadata or not).

Any news about a fix?

Needless to say I am not going to purchase DivX Connected hardware until this is fixed...

Thanks for any fresh news about this.

Thanks, much appreciated, I had an idea it would be something embarrassingly obvious. I'd found the single picture 'enter' bit and not looked carefully enough beyond. Plus I've just started needing reading glasses and I'm still in denial and that 'menu' button is tiny.

Commercial usage of KBE

kamiwa — Sat, 10 May 2008 20:01:51 +0000

KBE is completly dependent on a whole bunch of OpenSource tools. Some of them are under the GPL licencse others are LGPL.

I'm not an expert on law, but as far as I understand the GPL, this means that KBE itself is under GPL, which again means I have to grant you access to my source and the source of the used components.

Additionally GPL allows me to licencse KBE to you, but even then it still would be GPL, meaning that you yourself would have to make the source available to anyone asking for it.

Should you still be interested in the source, please contact me by email: kamiwa at kamiwa dot de.

Are you using DivX Connected?

dsalmonsen — Sat, 10 May 2008 18:59:00 +0000

Do you have a DSM-330 device connected to your TV?

Or have you downloaded the DivX Connected software on your PC?

If you have added the folder and the it shows up on the TV, just go into the folder and then press the 'menu' button on the remote and select "Play All".

You can also just select an individual image an press the "Enter" button, and once it is displaying a photo, press the Up or Down arrow to start a slide show from that point on.

NOW it works...

mjedelman — Sat, 10 May 2008 18:55:47 +0000

Thanks for your reply.

I downloaded the Webplayer SDK as you suggested and the code generator works fine. Now I just have to put the DivX download link on the pages I embed the videos.

Cool

hgh — Sat, 10 May 2008 17:07:00 +0000

It is quite impressive tool. Very nice UI!

My main question, Is this tool open source. Any considerations to sell the source code and license it another company?

Please let me know

You discovered a bug in the

SeaBass — Sat, 10 May 2008 05:17:00 +0000

You discovered a bug in the web player code generator. I'll have to fix that, In the meantime though you can download the Webplayer SDK and use the code generator that is in there, it will work.

http://download.divx.com/player/DivXWebPlayer_WebmasterSDK.zip

The issue is that the divx directory in your UL is misinterpreted by the code generator here on labs.

Codecs problem

mai linh — Sat, 10 May 2008 04:18:29 +0000

My original files were OK to play on Divx player, Mediaplayer or other capable players, after Muxing subtitle with DivxMux, all files now can only play in Divx player, and crashing in the other players.
Please address this problem.

So cant you just give a link for an older version of the player ... I am also using LCGSM which makes videos crash ...

why the web player doesn't work with FireFox? even after installing the beta version? it still crashes.

DMP for Mogul

DivXMobile — Wed, 07 May 2008 23:47:04 +0000

We have been unable to reproduce this problem on our Mogul. Are there any other Mogul users experiencing the same issue?

I would also recommend (temporarily) removing all .avi and .divx files from your device and try again. When DMP opens, it scans your phone for video files and extracts a thumbnail image to display in the file browser. If you have a corrupted or incompatible video file, the application may crash while trying to obtain a thumbnail image.

Yeah baby thats Oldskool.

Atari 2600 thats classic AWESOME MEN.

yep it works!

emrahalpat — Wed, 07 May 2008 20:20:27 +0000

After disabling the DHCP on the AP it takes about 15 seconds to get to the main (videos - photos) screen. I guess thats reasonable.
It works quite ok now - thanks for the tip :)

I had bought a cat5 cable just in case, I guess I'll take it back and get sth else for it :)

The device is not really disabling DHCP (it is poor wording)

dsalmonsen — Wed, 07 May 2008 16:40:00 +0000

It may be that the device is seeing both the router and the AP's DCHCP servers and getting confused.

The device is failing to get a DHCP address from the AP, but if you give it time, it should re-try and get either a valid DHCP address or an AutoIP address. If this is not happening, please let me know.

The device is not really disabling DCHP. When you look in the network settings (IP Configuration) of the setup menu and see the "Enable DHCP" button, it is just an indication that it has failed DHCP and when you select "enable" it is forcing a DHCP re-try. The DHCP mechanism is always enabled by default unless you specifically choose "Disable DHCP".

The only short term solution I can recommend is to configure your network to only use one DHCP server or to use a static IP address for the DSM-330 device. This is not an issue we have heard of before so may also to be related to the specific brand / model of AP.

yes tried that already

emrahalpat — Wed, 07 May 2008 05:08:18 +0000

tried it

hi yes, 1.0.1.30 and my ssid is 5 chars long.
I tried setting a 64bit wep key , but didnt make a difference. I dont think the encryption strength is the issue as I usually dont have to re enter that bit, I keep have to re-enabling DHCP.
WPA2 works just as fine as a wep key.

Let me tell you more of the network setup
I have an adsl modem/router - us robotics, and I have an access point (airties is the brand),
The router and access point are both dhcp enabled - but I specified different ranges, e.g. 192.168.1.5 to 192.168.1.9 is the range of IP addresses the AP can assign, and from 192.168.1.10 to 192.168.1.15 is the routers IP range.
The computer is set to a static IP (192.168.1.4), so is the AP (192.168.1.3), there is a 2nd computer which isnt included in this scenario (192.168.1.2) and the robotics routers IP (default gateway) is 192.168.1.1;

I noticed that the d-link box always picks up the first IP address the router has to offer (192.168.1.10), it hasnt picked up any other IP addresses so far.

Still, I'm not sure if this is related to the device not keeping my settings. Maybe when it can't pick up the last ip address in a certain amount of time, it deletes the network configuration?
Might this be the case?
Would a static IP help?
as a footnote, I have went through the forum, and couldnt find any useful suggestions, so I decided to register and ask my question :)

The device needs to be connected to the server

dsalmonsen — Tue, 06 May 2008 23:30:14 +0000

The device needs to be connected to the server (wired is best) for the restore to work.

Can you confirm the firware version number?

dsalmonsen — Tue, 06 May 2008 23:25:52 +0000

Is it 1.0.1.30?

With the 1.0.0.11 firmware, very long SSID's (network names) caused this problem, but the newest 1.0.1.30 firmware fixed it.

Can you restore the defaults and then try a different security setting on your router and see if that makes a difference?

Because the page does not

SeaBass — Tue, 06 May 2008 22:50:45 +0000

Because the page does not exist that you were trying to reach. So therefore this exists for you to leave a note on how you got here and what you were looking for.

The latest Converter Beta

If you use the latest Converter Beta and have the latest quicktime version installed, you maybe able to convert the files. Make sure to use Mobile profile.

I got the same problem

emrahalpat — Tue, 06 May 2008 19:46:49 +0000

hello,
I got the d-link box yesterday, and set it up fine and watched some movies and went to bed.
Came back today, and realized it wont remember my network settings.
I'm running the latest firmware (didnt make any difference)
the latest divx connected server (dont think it has anything to do with it anyway) on a Core2duo 2.66 2GB ram machine.

a wireless B/G network, forced to 54mb, with dhcp enabled, and WPA2 (SPK) enabled for an 8 digit key.

My problem seems to be that the dhcp server gets disabled on the d-link box when I turn it off. So I start the box, it looks for the server, cant find it, gets a 0.0.0.0 IP address, then I need to go in the setup menu, enable dhcp, wait for it to pickup the IP address, then it'll work ok.

It wont connect at all if I set a static IP (I set the same IP address it picks up when DHCP is enabled) havent poked around much the static IP stuff though.

I tried a factory reset, and I tried holding the reset for about 20+ seconds (which didnt load back the old firmware)

Any suggestions? Any hotfixes I can try out ?
I can provide more details if necessary.

same problem here

emrahalpat — Tue, 06 May 2008 19:46:02 +0000

hello
I tried to load the new firmware and it didnt solve my connectivity - retaining settings problem
I tried resetting the firmware by holding down the reset button,
how exactly do I need to do that ?
Device turned on? Off? plugged in?
