Feedback: MED500X V4 Beta 4

[deja]

Hello,

>>>
Reading your feedback I have the impression you are not running on Beta4.
Please check on the info screen.....
<<<

In System it shows V4Beta4

>>>
In Video Wall it is Alphabetic, but from top to bottom (zig-zag from left to right).
<<<

Okay, that’s right.

>>>
In the Videowall I can’t brows the cover art (about.jpg) with Up/Down: Thats as it is by design.
<<<

Will it be possible in one of the next firmware?

>>>
In the Media Library the SLOW Button doesn’t show the about.jpg: please check the size of your about.jpg, this should work. Maybe they are very big regarding size?
<<<

I don’t think so and with firmware before (V3.0.4) I haven’t had the problem.

I had a board with L17 bootloader.
I copied files from 0017L_bootloader_patch.rar to USB, and start Emergency update.
On the first screen I had a start installation patch & patch upgrade completed & reboot!
And then after reboot I see only mede8ter logo, and nothing happend .... If I start Emergency update again with the  same USB I get stuck on with  Start Installation...(rev:V4Beta2) and progres bar on 2/3  screen!
What is wrong in my update procedure?

I suggest to reformat your usb stick FULLY and not quick. Use FAT32 format.
Then put BOTH the files from the L17 patch on your stick and follow the instructions.
My guess is that you have some corrupted usb stick format or did not place BOTH files on your stick.

Please post the size of some about.jpg files that are not showing and the names.
We have the impression there is some size limit of 1MB on about.jpg files.

Hello,

same fact that Antony reported: All about.jpg larger 1024 kb don’t work in Media Library.
But in the Video Wall all about.jpg works fine.

How can I activate the file view in the videowall for my TV Series?

How can I activate the file view in the videowall for my TV Series?

Please read the instructions that come with the firmware regarding the video wall.

Specific to series;

25) The Video Wall supports a file view of multiple video files in one folder. The functionality makes
the Video Wall ideal for Series Video Files. So juts add the Series name to the Video Wall. Inside
the Series name folder you should have sub folders eg Season1 , Season 2 etc etc

So you must setup your folder structure (and subfolder structure) to get this to work properly.

Big thanks man!
Reformating usb didn't helped, but another one worked like charm!
Thank again !

That's what I did....

This is my setup now: HDD:/Series/Flash Forward/Season 1

I've added the Flash Forward folder to the videowall but it then only displays the folder.jpg as a thumbnail and I don't get to see the files.

What kind of files do you have in the Season 1 folder?

Follow as stated in the instructions for L17 then,  instructions are clear....
1) Check your Mede8er Bootloader Version in the Setup Menu.
     If you have 17L go to point 2.
     If you have 23 go to point 3

2) Instructions for updating from Bootloader 17L  XXXXX UPDATED XXXXXX
   a) Download 0017L_bootloader_patch.rar AND Mede8er_V4Beta4_2_October2010.rar (OR zip equivalents)
       b) Unrar/unzip the file 0017L_bootloader_patch.rar or 0017L_bootloader_patch.zip  and you will find 2 files inside.
         install.img and install.dat
   c) Copy these files to the root of a USB drive
   d) Install via Emergency Procedure.
      --- On the first stage you will see the patch install on the screen
      --- then the Mede8er will reboot
      --- Next you will see BETA2 install on screen and a yellow box after half of progression bar stating it has to reboot
      --- then another reboot
      --- then again it starts to install BETA2 and finishes with install complete and reboots

THE PROCESS IS NOT COMPLETE SO PLEASE CARRY ON

   e) Delete the two files install.dat / install.img on the USB stick
   f)  Unrar/Unzip the file Mede8er_V4Beta4_2_October2010 and copy the install.img to the root of the USB stick.
   g) Update the Mede8er in the normal way via Emergency procedure
