Hello, I read somewhere you can play mpeg files on the PC through the dreambox can someone explain how this works? do I have to setup an NFS server and mount the filesystem on the dreambox? I'm using enigma image on DM500. | ||

My System: DM7020, dual core2 PC | having trouble mounting... I'm using an NFS server on my PC. and from the dreambox i tried following the instructions Setup>Expert Setup>Communications Setup>Mount Setup and entering the information but it won't mount... i also tried from the command line by telnet entering: mount -t nfs -o wsize=40-96,rsize=4096,nolock 192.168.1.111:/video /var/video but i get the error message as follows: mount: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection refused mount: nfsmount failed: Bad file descriptor any ideas? | ||

Can you access it in web browser? Is the : a typo? Does the folder /var/video exist on your Dreambox? Also, why NFS and not CIFS? | |||
