I just purchased an HP Ex495. If I install this add-in to categorize my disks will it mess up the media streaming?

Brian: Can you link to a thread on this? The TCP/IP protocol configuration in SQL Server cannot cause your Windows 7 machine to shut down….

Binnerup: Can you please respond to and address some of the issues users of MyMovies have been having regarding the errors/warnings in the system event logs with the following message:
“The configuration of the AdminConnection\TCP protocol in the SQL instance MYMOVIES is not valid”
This has aparently been causing my Win7 machine to sporatically shut down immediately. Time stamps of this error correspond with these crashes. Do you have a fix – I couldn’t see anyting in your forums.
Thanks!

Question – I have MyMovies on my WHS working (monitoring is all good).

I have my MCE on Win7 working and it connects perfectly with my WHS and I can see my movies.

When I attempted to load an ISO movie, it states that I do not have something to load it. I looked through forums and it says I can use Daemon tools. Do I install this on the server or the client?

Thanks in advance!

Transcoding with a 1ghz processor would make me want to kill someone. Straight copy willwork better.

Scott: Your issue is very likely with HP’s Media Transcoder.

When enabled, it makes the DVD drive very, very slow.

Try disabling the HP Video Encoder in Services, which likely solves the problem.

I tried to use this tool and would be willing to pay the $50 for something that works.

My problem is the speed, the whole rip speed is excruciatingly slow.

In fairness, I do not think that it is the problem with the software – I just do not think the DVD burner is connecting to the HP unit as USB2…

IF I can figure that out, I will pay for this product.

I am in my first year of school for networking, so I’m still learning. This year we evaluated home server and linux, and personally i found that home server was so much easier for the basics. So I decided to start my own home server. The only problem I am having is not quit enough experience in getting every thing on the net work. I’m trying to use my Blue ray to run the media for our tv and just can’t get it right. Every thing else is running great. Sorry to be a noob But can you help

What a waste of 10 minutes. Thought I’ll give this a shot – tried registering but can’t use gmail or yahoo email accounts because of “spamming”. Really? I don’t have any other email accounts and I don’t want to create one (used to have a domain but not anymore). I guess everyone is guilty until proven otherwise…
