Neil, are you using YAMJ to display library information?  Just curious how you go about naming .nfo and other files for that kind of directory structure.  For example, it took me forever to figure out that for regular SD rips, they all get named "VIDOE_TS.nfo" and "VIDEO_TS.jsp", etc.  I have been using ClownBD to convert a blue-ray to a .ts file and so naming the meta-data files is pretty simple in that case.

 

Thanks,

Chris

 

Does C-200 support BDMW file structure?  Can someone confirm that it does actually work on there c-200?

 

Of course it does. I have 750 full BDMV rips. With a few minor compatibility issues, they all stream to the C-200 -- it's kind of the C-200's raison d'etre!

Thanks for everyone's help.  I'm now converting all my .iso's and .m2ts files to folder structure and playing them over smb flawlessly, hd audio and all !  Has anyone got music jukebox running on their unRAID rig yet?

I have upgraded my Unraid from 4.5 to 4.7 version. After the upgrade my PCH C200 don't see any NFS share only the samba share are working.

In the NFS share I put the Ip address of Unraid server and the /mnt/User/Video path.

What's the problem? Thank's

Has anyone found a way to get the unRAID disks to spin up while looking for a mover on the PCH or DUNE ?

 

I'm at a stage when I select to play a video, it times out and bring me back to the menu. I select the movie again and its all fine. Not a deal breaker but an annoyance and lowers the WAF.

 

If the disks are spinning the delay doesn't occur, but I do want them to spin down.

Not much you can do about this, honestly.  With the A-110 the PCH would freeze during this process, so the A-200 series are an improvmenet on that at least.  Disk spin up time is what it is, that's up to the ability of the disks to get up to speed at a hardware level and nothing to do with the software setup.  I have noticed that replacing my old 500G drives with new 2TB drives lowered the time greatly, and now I hardly ever "time out" on playing a movie even if they take 5-10 seconds to start up once selected.

I had a similar problem: when accessing the server the PCH (A110) would freeze and I had to power cycle it to get it going again.

 

The solution was to change the share type from SMB to NFS (unraid and PCH) - there is still a delay until the disks spin-up but at least there is no timeout.

 

Thanks for that. Don't really want to go NFS for security reasons but it might be my only option.

 

As a make shift I load the unMenu spin up disks script for a bookmarklet on my smrtophone. Works well enough when I remember to do it.

Check my post from awhile back here.  I found setting a static IP address for the unRAID and using NFS did the trick.
