I copied my photo library to a drive local to the server and it works fine - seems to have an issue on a network mounted share.

My wife wont let me play anymore she is enjoying the slideshow



Ok - more detail

It appears the erver didnt like when the photo folder was mounted on the server from another remote box. I simply moved the photos directly to the file server (something I have been meaning to do) and it works fine

I even tried a slower USB disk and that works fine as well

Is there a limit to the number of pictures in any given folder - for some reason not all 91 photos in a folder I am viewing display - either in the thumbnails or in the slideshowl

Also - on a POSITIVE note - if you start some music up, then navigate to your photo dir - the music continues to play during your slideshow. The wife thinks this is just AWSOME

There's not a designed limit. Do you see blanks where the pictures should be or just no item at all?

Nothing at all.. All of my photos start with numerics

Here si the directory of the folder in question


Could it be an issue with the files with the Jan 2007 create day - had the battery out of the camera and the date defaulted back

Did I just brick my Roku???

I was trying to install the newest version of this channel. I followed the directions to a T. Launched the server and went out to look at the channel. The Roku was on the screensaver and was unresponsive to my remote. So I thought maybe it needed to be reset. I unplugged it and plugged it back in and now I've got nothing. No light, no signal, nothing. . . Help me please!!!

Have you tried a hard reset? It's a tiny button on the bottom of the box. I think your supposed to hold it for 30 seconds. It does a factory reset.

Re: My Media - Your Music and Video on the Roku DVP

My Media does not show up in the Channel Store anywhere, but is installed and running. I'd like to remove it but do not see any way. Please advise.

I actually had tried that to no avail. I ended up unplugging for about ten minutes and plugged back in and it came on. Thanks though!

Re: My Media - Your Music and Video on the Roku DVP

el.wubo, great work. By playing a song in a folder, it will play the whole folder, this is what I was looking for. And good job on the slideshow for pictures.

I would like to know when there is a new build ready for testing, specifically the page that shows the early development:
http://github.com/netguy204/roku_media_server/archives/next
Does not show a version number or "last update" date, so I never know if it has been updated.

Re: My Media - Your Music and Video on the Roku DVP

Thanks el.wubo. The directions deleted the channel but not a blank icon. After re-booting the Roku that was gone also.
