hi I picked up a rev D3A version of the mediaMVP with the version 1.0 software I downloaded a couple of later versions but found the mvpmc appears to be a better option if only i could set it up :)
I figured out that calling mvpmc dongle.bin and replacing the haupage version would probably install mvpmc and it did. i didnt do anything about a config file and exploring the file system i found a few radio stations preloaded and these worked. unfortunately what i really want to do is to avoid running windows all together (I can live with booting via windows if I have to) what i really want to do is use ubuntu throughout my network for everything. there seems to be a number of stages which need to be gone through before the mvpmc software is prepared to play Stage1 is to obtain an address via dhcp. unfortunately or fortunately my router provides this service. my router doesnt give me an option of ignoring a mac address and not providing an address automatically. I would prefer not to disable the dhcp server in my router and have to reconfigure my network PC's to run on static ip addresses, however stage2 requires something to supply the dongle.bin file does this need to be the dhcp server ? on ubuntu there seems to be three possibilitys etherboot or atftp tftp-hpa I have attempted to configure tftp-hpa to serve dongle.bin but the pc isnt playing ball the next thing is to configure the media server and this seems very difficult too. any help or advice will be greatfully recieved regards john _________________________________________________________________ Be the first to hear what's new at MSN - sign up to our free newsletters! http://www.msn.co.uk/newsletters ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
