    I was going to blog instructions to install raydon's media & file bundle, but someone's already done it. So why repeat the work when I can just post a link

    I've just installed the telnet package from this media bundle and I am getting a double command line:
    ~ $ ls
    bin etc lib mnt proc sbin sys usr
    dev home media opt root share tmp var
    ~ $
    ~ $ cat /proc/version
    Linux version 2.6.12-4.2-brcmstb (ohs@vanilla) (gcc version 3.4.6) #1 Wed Dec 8 10:20:47 KST 2010
    ~ $
    ~ $

    Does anyone know why? (Is this how it behaves?) I am using putty as the client app. Is dropbear-ssh available for the FOXSAT-HDR?

    Try looking in the installers folder of the package

    Doh! Probably was looking the other way or for 'ssh'!

    Could you have a go at producing a perl package? I wouldn't mind having a go at writing such a script as af123's dedup for the FOXSAT-HDR... One thing that niggles me is the question whether I have to manipulate the hmt file - replacing the filename string with the new name. I don't think dedup on the HDR-FOX T2 does this... and that it should do..?

    I've just connected my Xbox360 to the FOXSAT-HDR running Twonky and although it sees the HDR, none of the recordings shows up. Does any know if the 360 supports .ts media files, and if not, how to get it to?

    Was using Twonky last night to watch a recording of Dr Who... and it happened again! Playback froze 6 mins into latest episode and XMBC started to buffer but got stuck at 1%.

    I could exit this process so it wasn't XBMC that crashed, but after moving about in XMBC, then back to the FOXSAT-HDR, it could not access the box. I went to check the FOXSAT to see what it was doing, and I saw that it was recording.

    This is the second time it happened so I suspect that we can not playback recordings via the DLNA server when the FOXSAT is recording... I will test this out, but has anyone come across this or something similar?

    Set two timers to record 2 HD channels and then playback of an HD recording, then attempted to playback MotD via Twonky DLNA. All was fine! So the box can cope with this demand.

    It must be something else making Dr Who freeze with the buffering action...

    Froze again last night, after watching about 2 hours of a recorded movie. I must get to the bottom of this... I suspect it is the FOXSAT-HDR but no recording was kicked off this time...

    Two hours since the FOXSAT-HDR hasn been on - media serving freezes... It has to be the ppwer saving feature of the box. The reason why I've not suspected this before was that I know it only power saves during the evening period. I didn't thing it carried over its uptime into that period...
