Kroozbox- Personal Video Database - PVD (or any DB) and Music Jukebox to Popcorn Hour

[Nono]

Sstavross,

Hope you all the health you can get.
I'm not complete with the LG stuff (and there are issues and limitation with the LG). Might take a few weeks and I will contact you then.

Omertron,

Thank you to have kept Kroozbox on your site all that time. I have change the links on the first post.

I have an eversion skin for Kroozbox so it can be use on the PCH 300 series and Dune using flash interface. I would deploy all of those with LG template at the same time on your site if still ok.

Thank you very much for your kind wishes!

Just want to ask you some questions about the LG tamplete. It will be an application or through its web browser?

About the popcorn hour a210 and the cue files problems you had to make them play through kroozboz. Kzoozboz can take a movie database and show it in popcorn hour. Can kroozboz take a music database like foobar2000's(that can play cue files) and show it through kroozboz interface? Just an idea...

LG template: would be a combination of Kroozbox template located on your home server and a downloadable application. You can already use LG browser to point to Kroozbox but there is always the status bar at the bottom of the screen when playing media (more a bug then anything on LG part). For beta testing I would send you something.

If foobar2000 is sql based you can use Kroozbox to display. You do have to make a template for it. I don't have the time for that. Will it do cue files? hmmm, not sure. I doubt it - would have to wrap my brain around this problem again and look at foobar2000 (no time no time, aaargh).

Hi All,
Installed the latest Win 7 updates yesterday and a Java update.
It appeared to mess up the Kroozbox service as now under 'services' it reports 'starting' but gets no further and now i get a 'page not found' when i browse to 192.168.0.60:9008.
I can start Kroozbox manually using the batch file STARTME in the Kroozbox folder and get the normal web page. Have tried stopping the service using REMOVESERVICE and restarting the PC but again when I re install the service it just reports 'starting' again.
Help !

Fixed it. Used my Win Home Server to restore to earlier version. Anyone know if Kroozebox will run on the Popcorn Hour 200 / 300 boxes ?. Thinking about upgrading

From reading, I think that the 200 series still support HTML but that might be gone in a future firmware update. So, the current Kroozbox might work on the 200 but it won't on the 300 series until I update the distribution with flash support (should happen in a few weeks).
The problem you have with the update is probably with Java update and Windows firewall. Since Java was updated, the firewall doesn't know that this new program (java) should be allow to have listening socket.
The easiest way to fix this after an update is to stop Kroozbox service and start it in simulation/debug mode from the command prompt.
C:\kroozbox2_0a>KroozboxNTService -debug
It will tell the you the reason why it doesn't work and/or let teh OS ask you for the Firewall exception. When this is done stop this program and start the service.
