Kroozbox - PVD to media theatre solution
Nono:
It its running from the dos box, all is nice. Now the PS3 might have issue with UPNP (or Kroozbox needs to be configured specifilcally for the PS3 requests - it can probably be done but I don't have a PS3 to test with). Other users are using Kroozbox with the PS3. If there is a web browser on it, should be ok.
The only thing you need to do at this point (after Kroozbox has started) is to point the PS3 web browser to Kroozbox. For that you need to know the IP address of the machine where Kroozbox is running and enter it in the PS3 browser address. It would be something like: http://192.168.2.111:9008 - 182.168.2.111 being the IP adress of the Kroozbox machine (this will be different in your environment) and 9008 being the ip port that Kroozbox is listening on (this is the default port and should not be change).
To find out the ip address of the Kroozbox machine, you can do a run (or search) on "cmd" from the start button. A DOS box will open. Type "ipconfig" <enter>. THe IPv4 address will give you the adress to use.
Hope this help.

Kroozbox - SUPER!
Help please with links on video start.
I have Dune BD Prime 3.0
In base PVD files have a way:
--- Quote ---\\Newsky-server\share-server\HD\Мультфильмы\Ш\Шрэк Навсегда (2010)\Shrek_Forever_After_(2010)(multi)(1080).mkv
--- End quote ---
And in the browser I receive here such way:
--- Quote ---http://172.18.0.13:9013/&media=%2F%2FNewsky-server%2Fshare-server%2FHD%2F%D0%9C%D1%83%D0%BB%D1%8C%D1%82%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BC%D1%8B%2F%D0%A8%2F%D0%A8%D1%80%D1%8D%D0%BA%20%D0%9D%D0%B0%D0%B2%D1%81%D0%B5%D0%B3%D0%B4%D0%B0%20%282010%29%2FShrek_Forever_After_%282010%29%28multi%29%281080%29.mkv
--- End quote ---
And the file isn't started. What I need to make, what files would be reproduced?
How to make that the reference wouldn't change and remained as is in base PVD?

Hi,
I have created the same structure that you show here (Мультфильмы\Ш\Шрэк Навсегда (2010)\Shrek_Forever_After_(2010)(multi)(1080).mkv) and I was *not* able to reproduce your problem. Working fine with my setup.
Soooo, a few points:
* Make sure that the Kroozbox machine has access to the "\\Newsky-server" machine - try kroozbox in a *none* service mode by running the STARTME.bat file (and the service turned off). If that works it means that the service account under which Kroozbox is running doesn't have proper access to the "\\Newsky-server" serveur - change in the service management.
* You can play with UUEncodeMediaLink value (true or false) in the kroozbox.properties of your template to see if it change anything (kroozbox has to be restarted for this to take effect).
* I didn't try your link using the path with a server name - it should work but maybe mapping the server to a drive on the machine running kroozbox might be an option. You can then add entry to your "PVDLinkRelocation.properties" of your template to change the link from the PVD entry to the drive mapping that you used. For instance:
\\Newsky-server\=n:\
(replace n: with whatever drive name you use in your mapping - Kroozbox need to be restart after that)
You can verify the link value in your browser.
* You could always set the "debug" flag to true in the kroozbox.properties file of your template, run with startme.bat and see the output on the screen when you click your media link in the borwser. Kroozbox would tell you more information on what is happening.
Let me know,
Nono

Nono, Thank you so much for the help!
Although at this point I nothing has changed. Don't understand all, does the Dune BD Prime 3.0 playback after clicking in the browser. Link type:
< a href = smb://server/share/hd/video.mkv > play </a> does not launch video
However, the record in the dune_folder.txt file:
media_url = smb://server/share/hd/video.mkv starts the video. So I think, does this player function Kroozbox :(
Nono:
Not sure if I understand.
Note that Kroozbox for mkv, avi, etc type of file is *not* using smb but act as its own http server.
I am not familiar with Dune DB Prime so I cannot comment much on any shortcoming.
Kroozbox can also serve as just file pointer - changing the path with an smb references if you need that but... that's a long trip.
Please answer those:
* What is your level of success with Kroozbox? can you see the sommary pages in DB Prime and in your computer browser?
* Can you launch a movie through Kroozbox using your computer browser (Internet Explorer or the like) or is the file get downloaded or "404 Not found" ?
Try to be precise on the error/problem you get. Maybe using google translator from russian?
I can read/write/speak french and can communicate to a certain extend in italian, spanish and german.. sorry no russian. Thanks.
