Hi,

Heu... we are here in forum of the PVD software. Meaning that the PVD file is created by the PVD software that you can download from http://www.videodb.info/forum_en/index.php?action=down

To start the STARTME file you might need to be in the working folder of Kroozbox. Not sure how you are starting it.
Note that if Kroozbox is working in service mode, you don't need to start it with STARTME.

The only thing you have to do is build your movie database with PVD and point Kroozbox to it by changing the value of "dbName" in the Kroozbox.properties file located in your template folder (typically: \Kroozbox2.0\templates\PVDTemplate-HD\kroozbox.properties).

Restart Kroozbox. that should work providing that the path of the movie provided in the PVD software is the same path for Kroozbox. (ex.: if PVD point to d:\mymovie\title\title.avi , the machine running kroozbox should see this movie with this path). Otherwise there are ways to dynamically cahnge the path but that's for another time when/if you provide us with a a mapping of your network.

Noet that Kroozbox won't be able to play  the movie file located on the PCH local drive.

sorry for the stupid question but i have to pass the threshold first. :-)

I have downloaded the PVD application and installd it. It starts correct, but now what?

I was hoping the this app could search my movie directory with all my mkv-files and then
import them. But that is maybe not how it works. Must i manually put all my movies in this database?

And how do i do that, please help me.

Nono:
PVD top menu->Tools->Scan Folder for new movies/file path...

kotten:
sorry, i should have find that.

I have now started the search and sometime i got a question what movie i really have
because it cant translate my filename. Sometimes i can see my movie of suggestion
but some movies it just cant find. It is still common movies and not very unusual.

Dear Nono! Thank you very much for your help!

Just as I expect, Dune BD Prime 3.0 (and other players of the brand) are not able to run the file from the link in your browser. According to this, until Kroozbox use with this player can not. BUT! Representatives of this player in Russia, this possibility seemed interesting, and they promised to implement a media launch at the link from a browser in a future firmware. I will wait!

Came the question directly on the Kroozbox: Why are some films so "scattered"?




I have an external IP and my base is "looking to the Internet, " I could give you a link if it helps to understand why. Do you mind?
