Fast forward problems with 2nd room DVR

I am enjoying my new FIOS set up very much. I have the Home Media option on my HD DVR and STBs. I'm having trouble with the "Fast Forward" when watching shows in my "non" DVR room. When the show is longer than about 45 minutes... after scanning thru commericals the program jumps back to the beginning. This is very frustrating and in some ways defeats the purpose of the multi-room option. I'm considering canceling this option but wanted to check first to see if there's an easy fix.
Thanks in advance.

Hey nascar,
All three problems are reported issues and due up to be fixed. The first of your problems isnt a problem with the site, as it is a problem with IMG. The DVR content isnt being flagged properly after finishing it. Number two, you already know what is causing it. I don't know too much about this problem as ad insertion is handled on the network level. I do know they are reporting to be working on a fix at this time. Only a few areas at this time experience this problem as verizon does not locally insert ads in every market. Number three has been around for a while. We have attempted to fix it but the "fix" actually broke more things than it fixed so we had to pull it off the boxes. This one is still a work in progress to be fixed.

Fast forward problems with Zen Touch (1.01.03 AND PlayForSu

Device: Zen Touch
Firmware: .0.03
Some files cause fast forward problems. Suppose I fast forward to the end of the song. Then I reach the - 00:00.00 marker. HOWEVER, the song goes on and on. It doesn't stop, even if it should (these files aren't corrupt, they work properly on my pc). For e.g. this file causes problems: http://www.hollywoodsaloon.com/podcast/THS-ep9.mp3 and this file http://meandawg.com/audio/MDTop5_0002.mp3.
Anyone know if this is a common problem, and can I fix this by installing the playforsure firmware?Message Edited by Nicos on 07-27-200703:42 AM

Is there anyone who has the same problem? Maybe someone of you can download these files and try to ffwd to the end with a Zen Touch.Message Edited by Nicos on 07-27-200707:44 AM

Fast forwarding problems with 1.9 update

I was wondering if anyone else is having problems fast forwarding a show since the update. When I am fast forwarding it often skips the commerical break and the show up to the next break on anything more than 2x forward. It does this more while viewing DVR programs from the other DVR. It is also stopping the show with 10 seconds left of recording.

If rebooting the box (done by unplugging power cord for 30 seconds then plugging back in) does not fix your problem, please send a private message. This way we can look into this for you.

Problem with Mult-Room DVR after moving to new location

We are having a remodeling project done in our Family room so I moved the multi-room DVR to another room to continue recording. While I can see the DVR from our bedroom DVR (also multi-room), the moved DVR does not appear to be recording anything. While we can see programs that were recorded (including at least one recording done after I made the move), the DVR states that they are no scheduled recordings (despite several series recordings being scheduled). a reboot of the box doesn;t seems to have done the trick.
Any thoughts on what could be causing the problem?

Now it seems to be working fine. Before the newer backups weren't showing. It was just skipping from today to a few years ago. I checked this a couple of days in a row originally because at first I just figured that it hadn't created enough backups to show. The weirdest things is that there seems to be a couple of years missing. I know I've backed up the old computer between 2008 and 2010. Where did those files go?
It looks like Time Machine thinks you've had two separate Macs, thus the different names. You may be able to use the (badly named in this case) +*Browse Other Time Machine Disks+* option, per #17 in [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum), to see the "other" Mac's backups.
1. Can I delete the old backups? The reason I would like to do this is to free up space on the external hard drive.
Yes, but not via the Finder or Terminal. You'll have to locate them via the "Star Wars" display, per #12 in the FAQ.
But if you have (or are thinking of putting) other data on the drive, in the same partition as your backups, don't. See #3 in the FAQ.
2. If I change the name of the file as described, will time machine find it?
+*NO !+* Never change, delete, or move anything in your backups via the Finder or Terminal; that can corrupt them beyond repair !

Fast forward problem in iTunes 6.0.1.3

Hello
I am using iTunes 6.0.1.3 on Windows XP Pro.
The situation is this. I have a song that is 7:30 long. When I play it normally it works just fine. However when I use the fast forward and advance to time mark 6:45 and start playing it is actually playing the part of the song that is at 6:00 (within a second or two), I let it go ahead and play and when it gets to 7:30 it just stops and jumps to the top of the menu tree (both it iTunes and on my ipod (40 gig 4g).
I have tried the fast forwarding in Music Match and Adobe Audition and it works just fine. I have tested the mp3 file with all the editors and players I have and it works great.
It appears there is some type of synch issue with fast forward and I don't really know where to start.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You.

Well, I've noticed this problem at work (while using my work laptop on a network with other users -- some who have iTunes 5 and some iTunes 6) and at home (using a completely different laptop).
At first I thought it was a configuration problem on my work laptop, but now I'm thinking it has something to do with iTunes itself.
The weird thing is: People at work who use iTunes 5.0 can see the shared drives without a problem. Those with 6.0 cannot. So this problem is replicating itself in two completely different environments -- leading me to believe it's something in iTunes 6. Hmm....

Problem with Dark Room theme.

I have created a homepage in iWeb 3.0.1 with the Dark Room theme (web.me.com/jmsuijkerbuijk). Everything looks fine (that is: the way I intended) in Safari 4.0.3 and OmniWeb 5.10.1, incomplete in Opera 10.00 and Camino 1.6.10, and plain terrible in Firefox 3.5.3 (you really don't want to know the result in Internet Explorer under Parallels!).
The problem is manifest with pictures that are titled and/or drop a shadow. In both Opera and Camino the shadows are missing; in Firefox the shadows are present, but are not titled with the picture itself, which returns a ridiculous result.
Is there something I can do to have all or most browsers show proper imaging? Thanks in advance!

Camino 1.6.10, however, has problems rendering the pages in a number of areas. I don't worry about Camino as it's not used by many.
There are just two pages that look to have problems with Firefox 3.5.3. The Biography and Score Samples. The photos have both a drop shadow and reflection. The drop shadow is misbehaving. However, on the Welcome page there appears to be both a reflection and drop shadow on the three image and they look fine. The difference is that those three are links. Don't know if that has anything to do with it.
Opera just doesn't support the java script create drop shadows. As for IE you'll have to really dummy down the site to get it to work with IE. Roddy has a number of posts and a site that gives many tips on making a site more compatible with IE.

!!! Problem with 2nd graphic card !!!

Hi I have a big problem with my laptop.
I have an HP TouchSmart tm2-2000el Notebook, with Windows 7 64-bit.
2nd Graphic card is ATI RADEON HD Series 5450.
When I activate this hardware from Control Panel desktop goes black but every function are ok (sounds, illumination and all cmds).
So I must restart my computer in Safe Mode disactivate ATI Radeon HD 5450 and restart it.
Laptop run but only with Intel graphic card.
I tried to search update drivers on Amd/ATI site: amd online software reveals Ati radeon HD 5000 Series but after download Ati software tell me that is impossible to install drivers because there isn't an ATI Radeon HD 5000 Series.
So I have low graphics and CPU with 69°C because intel graphic card runs over...
I haven't found any driver for my model of laptop on HP Assistance.
Touchsmart spec
How can I do now?
Thanks
Alberto

This is the right driver for switchable graphics...do not also install the Intel only driver, you do not need both.

Zen wav fast forward problem!

hi everybody.. i just bought creative zen wav 2gb. but i have a big problem about that player. i generally listen long time songs such as 90 min. one set. sometimes i want to fast forward that kind of song. but when i want to jump from beginning of song to 85th minute. it takes too long time? because time jump of the player is nearly 3 second at once. that means if i want to jump to 85 minute from beginning of song, it takes nearly 6 minutes to be at that time point:angry:... i want to know how i can i solve that problem? or creative customer support service is wawre of that problem? because i think that is very big fault for a firmware of that product.

It is ok Richard and KokChoy, this place is just for exchange ideas.
I think that this issue is important, it has been mentioned in other messages :

Fast forward problem

I dont know what i hit, but i cant fast forward or rewind by holding the next or back button. I used to be able to fast forward to any part of the song, but now it just skips to the the next song. I tried to reset the settings and still doesnt work.

The only way I thought you could FF or RW fast was to click the center button until the diamond appeared showing where you were on the track.
Or if I am wrong your click wheel may be on it's way south.

Problems with 2nd gen Apple TV dropping network

Hoping somebody can help. I have two second generation Apple TV units that are constantly dropping off my network. I have to re-enter my apple ID and password almost daily. I am on an entirely Mac network, Imac (10.6.7), Airport extreme and express. My other mac devices have no such issues and remain on network without issue. I only have this problem with my apple tv devices. Both have been updated to the latest software version and the issue remains. Does anyone else have this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your Apple TV's may be experiencing interference, have you tried changing wifi channels.
Check your network settings are correct and try restarting your router. update the routers firmware if appropriate.
I'm assuming the 2 Apple TV's have different names.

Fast forward problems

I have a 20GB ipod that was working great until the I installed the latest ipod update (06-01-10). Since then, my ipod fast forwards through all my previously loaded songs. What gives? Anyone have an idea on why that is?
Thanks

Try resetting your iPod, and if not, attempt a restore.

E90: Music player - Can I fast forward/rewind with...

Is it possible to fast forward or rewind within a single track?
I know I can skip back to the start but if I have a 20 minute audio book and I miss something 15 minutes in, can I rewind back 60 seconds (or so)?
If so, how? It's not obvious to me.
...Lyall

In the music player you have the controls to skip to next track if you quickly press the keys (up or down) If you hold the key then it skips through.
However this works for MP£ I don't recall it working for AAC format. I could be wrong, but I know not all formats suppport it.

Problem with collaboration rooms

Hi all,
I have a prolem in collaboration rooms, After i create a room, i will get a link to enter the room. when i click on the link, i am able to enter the room but with an error saying
<b>"No connection to groupware server (No logon data found for system lotussystem). Refresh this screen or contact your system administrator if the problem persists"</b>
Can anyone please help me why the error is??? and also what should be done for this.

Kavitha,
Users should be mapped to appropriate systems through a user name and password.
In your case navigate to USer Management and enter an appropriate Username and password for the system lotussystem through the User mapping tab. The User name and password would be used to logon to the system.
This should solve the problem.

Please Help: problems with 2nd internal SATA drive on G5

Hello everyone,
I was transferring and deleting very large files from my main drive, a 2nd 250GB SATA internal drive, and an external 250GB FW800 drive recently (about 50GB worth of data transfered), and decided to run disk warrior and repair my permissions/verify disk in disk utilities once completed.
Everything seemed fine until I verified my 2nd internal drive upon which I received the following error: "First Aid Failed" citing "Invalid node structure" and that the volume needs to be repaired. I attempted to Repair disk, though the process stops and I get the same error "Volume could not be repaired because of an error."
This 2nd SATA drive only holds data (I'm a musician so it only holds sample data for streaming in Logic) but it contains allot of information (185GB used of 233GB) which according to my math comes out to about 80% used. This should be acceptable amount, correct? The drive also has Journaling enabled, though I'm not sure if its relevant or not.
What should I do? The drive itself seems to be working fine, but why would disk utility have a problem reading/repairing it if its indeed fine. Should I be worried? The drive is probably no more than 2 years old, so it cant be drive failure yet, can it?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
Update: I tried to graph the problem drive again in diskwarrior, and this time an error occurred! This obviously did not happen the first time I used diskwarrior to graph and build a new directory, so something must have happened recently. What could have happened? What should I do?

Yes, that's fine.
The drive also has Journaling enabled, though I'm not
sure if its relevant or not.
Hmm, I think I once had a drive with a directory problem that couldn't be fixed with DiskWarrior without journaling being (temporarily) disabled. After disabling journaling, I used DiskWarrior to Rebuild the drive's directory, then I reenabled journaling.
What should I do? The drive itself seems to be
working fine, but why would disk utility have a
problem reading/repairing it if its indeed fine.

than 2 years old, so it cant be drive failure yet,
can it?
I'm afraid it could be, I've had drives fail at any time between half a year after purchase up to 3 or more years after. Though often one hears the drive "die", or notices very slow performance due to bad blocks being weeded out, and the S.M.A.R.T. status - visible in Disk Utility (only for internal drives) in the bottom right, when you select a drive (not volume) is an indicator of a harddisk's health as well (though not the most complete, see this hint, or S.M.A.R.T. Guard).
Update: I tried to graph the problem drive again in
diskwarrior, and this time an error occurred! This
obviously did not happen the first time I used
diskwarrior to graph and build a new directory, so
something must have happened recently.
Did you try to repair anything with Disk Utility in the meantime?
What could
have happened? What should I do?
So did the Repair with DiskWarrior not finish? What kind of error was it?
In my experience, DiskWarrior mostly fixed any directory trouble. For more serious cases, see this thread.
