Home Media (MR) Feature No Longer Required for Remote DVR Support

I just found out that, effective today (or maybe yesterday) you can now activate Remove DVR programming capability through the FiOS TV Central website without have the multi-room feature. I do not have the multi-room support on my DVR and just logged into TV Central, sure enough it offered me the option to set up remote support, which will take 24-48 hours to be actived. I of course accepted, have received the confirmation email, now waiting for the 24-48 hour time to expire so I can use it.
Thanks Verizon!

I also signed up . This is great!!!  Does anyone know what the url is to get into it? I logged on into it through the email they sent me to try it andit works great. I can't get into my email at work though but I am sure I can access this feature. I'm having trouble finding it on the my account page. What am I missing?
I log in through My Verizon: http://www36.verizon.com/fiostv/web/Default.aspx
When I click on My Set Top Boxes and then click on the DVR icon I now see the status of the DVR plus I can click on the bullet below to see the current recordings, etc.
And now, I just found a new enhancement, at least for me: I can now go in and rename my boxes. Some people had had that capability before, I have never had it, but now I do. 
One more time, good job Verizon! (and I am sure some people will  say, "about time!")

  • Is router reset really required for Remote DVR use?

    I am a new FiOS TV customer, but have been on FiOS internet for a couple of years. 
    I signed up for the Remote DVR service -- it seems to have some nice features with web access.  I then received an email from Verizon advising me that before the Remote service could be activated, I had to RESET my ActionTec router to factory defaults.
    I have made several changes to the defaults to accomodate my home network requirements -- settings which I would prefer not to change!
    Does anyone know which specific parameters/settings Verizon is looking for which, if set to the default values, would allow the Renote DVR service to work (or at least pass the remote test Verizon does before allowing service to be activated)?
    Thanks,
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I don't know what settings Verizon may care about, but I can tell you that I activated the Remote DVR service and I did not do a thing to my router beforehand. It all just worked, although occasionally I do get an error message saying it can't contact the DVR, but if I wait a while it almost always works the next time. I do have some customization, but maybe not in the area the Remote DVR service might depend on, such as changing the IP range, using fixed IP addresses instead of DHCP, port usage, etc (I don't know that it depends on any or all of these, or lthers, just speculating).
    Remote test that Verizon does before activating? If they did that to mine I wasn't aware of it.
    Have you tried to just use it and it not work? Or maybe they have changed the procedure since I got it.
    Hope you get it working. I have found it very useful at times.

  • Quicktime "Share" feature no longer works for me.

    For the past year now I've been using Quicktimes "Share" feature to upload videos to YouTube. As of today, the feature no longer works. When I open a video, click "Share" and then "YouTube" absolutely nothing happens. I've tried with multiple different video files, even some that I previously uploaded using this same method, but to no avail.
    I rebooted the computer, and that did not help either. I tried some of the other "Share" options, but non of them work either. The most I've gotten was from the "iTunes" option, from which I got a drop down menu and a few export options, but after selecting my options and clicking next nothing happened.
    If it helps, I am on a 2011 iMac, running OSX Lion, and yes, everything is up-to-date (as of 07/04/2012)
    (Also, it may be worth mentioning that whenever I export a video from Final Cut, even though I have the option "When finished open in Quicktime," the files will not open automatically. This started happening at the same time as my other issue, but I'm nowhere near as concerned about fixing this.)

  • What is required for CF COM Support?

    Hi,
    I am using a CF9 trial and am trying to instatiate a COM Server that I wrote. I can get some servers to work, while others will not. What does CF require of a COM Server? Does CF require any Implemented Categories be set when the server is registered (DLLRegisterServer)? If so what categories does it require? I cannot find this documented anywhere?
    Thank you.
    Steve

    Hi,
    Thank you for the suggestions.
    I can see my DLL listed in dcomcnfg, but how do I register a DLL in dcomcnfg?
    I have Admin Rights on my system. This is a developer licencse of CF on a single system.
    I know this is not a data type issue as I have only one method in my server that has no parameters or a return value. I can also see that CF does not call QI in the server.
    There is something I missing in registering the DLL and am just not sure what CF wants. Does CF require that it be a control? Does it have to support a container?
    Thanks,
    Steve

  • Minimal requirements for remote client app to call a EJB 3 session bean

    I'm just starting to get into EJBs, trying to learn the EJB 3 APIs. I kind of understand the setup on the server side to create a session bean. What I don't understand is what I would have to deploy for each of the remote client app (Swing-based GUI or something like that) installations. Of course, the client app code would have to be deployed to each client desktop, but what stuff related to the session bean? Just the session bean interface class?
    For ease of discussion, let's say my bean is CalculatorBean, having two interfaces, CalculatorRemoteIface and CalculatorLocalIface. Let's also say my client app, CalculatorUI, is a simple Swing-based GUI that grabs a reference to a CalculatorBean.
    Other than just the Swing-based classes and the JRE, what JARs/classes will I want to deploy to each desktop?
    (Please assume the latest Sun Java System App Server 9 and Java EE 5, if you are familiar with them.)

    Personally- I would deploy your backend
    in EJB 3.0, but then expose it as a web service. It
    is MUCH easier for your clients to connect to a web
    service (and mantain that code), then to have them
    connect via RMI/JNDI.Oh, I would say it's quite the opposite. RMI/JNDI is MUCH easier from a client point of view than web services. To make web services work easy from the client side you have to generate code and the tools that generate code from a web services wsdl file doesn't do a great job today. But that was not the question. But take some time reading this article about webservices...it's quite funny and spot on: http://wanderingbarque.com/nonintersecting/2006/11/15/the-s-stands-for-simple
    Now to your question, yes you will need the remote interface on the client side.

  • NWA template installer required for remote systems

    We've installed a NW 7.0 SP13 Java System that will be used for MDM Enrichment.  During the installation we specified the Central SLD (a different NW7.0) system when prompted.  I can see this new system in our Central SLD under the "technical systems" area.  Following the installation, is there any reason to run any or part of the NWA template installers on either this new Java system or on our SLD system?  Our SLD system is not being used as the CEN system, so the system will just be administered locally.
    I'm trying to understand if any sort of connection data from the new system to the central sld is missing if any of the template installers is not run after the installation.
    Thanks.

  • System requirements for Creative Suite CS5 Design Premium

    I've got a PC whose system specs are:
    - OS Windows 7
    - Intel Pentium P6100
    - Intel HD Graphics
    - 4 GB DDR3 Memory
    - 500 GB HDD
    I am not so sure if I can install and use the Creative Suite CS5 on this machine.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thank you in advance for your invaluable help.

    The answer is the same as in your other thread: It will work, but it's not gonna be much fun. It's still a pretty weak processor and the intel graphics will very likely prevent hardware acceleration features in Photoshop (required for 3D) and InDesign (Flash encoding and interactive authoring) from working properly or at all.

  • Windows Media Centre - Windows Media Foundation - Windows Apps. Replacement for WMC

    Still looking for a PVR replacement but DVBLogic looks like it might do the job.
    Have gone down the Plex Windows App route (The clostest replacement to WMC player so far) but they are saying they are hamstrung by limitations of the App sandbox? and Windows Media Foundation.
    I need some concrete information from the Windows Media Centre People or Windows Media Foundation people so that developers can be steered in the right direction to help people like me switch over from WMC to something else without major headaches, frustrations,
    days and days of conversion and metadata reentry.
    My post from Microsoft Community
    Hi,
    Since Windows Media Centre almost didn't make it into Windows 8 I have been looking to move to something else before it disappears for good.
    While it might just make it into Windows 10 there certainly won't be any future development.
    I not a big fan of Microsoft products but WMC is one application they nailed
    Some additional smart recording options
    i.e. I had to add "The Big Bang Theory - Return", "The Big Bang Theory - New", "The Big Bang Theory - Finale" etc to my series recording
    A proper library manager (Plex does a great job of this) e.g. by series, season, episode - Movies - Documentaries etc with additional data downloaded.
    A few more playable formats/containers
    It would be perfect.
    A proper Library wasn't as important as most of the metadata could be viewed directly in windows explorer.
    Not supported with other containers.
    This brings me to the first obstacle.
    All the alternatives I have looked at so far can't or won't support .wtv files
    Converting the files to another format/container loses all the explorer properties. (And some of the metadata completely)
    Discussions I have had so far are pointing the finger at the "Windows Media Foundation"
    I.e. Developers can't do anything with .wtv files because WMF doesn't support them.
    So the question is: If Windows Media Centre is no longer viable for Microsoft why haven't they atleast provided the tools for developers to support the format/container they forced upon so many users of their product.
    i.e. Metadata reader/writer
    Codec/Container? player?

  • N81 8GB - Home Media problem

    Hi
    I'm having some problems with the home media function in N81.
    When I access Home Media, the phone just keeps searching for media servers and can't find any of them.
    I know the problem isn't in the media servers (I have a winamp media server and a wmp 11 media server), because it used to work fine and I can still access both of them through my ps3.
    I don't think the problem is in the router, because my ps3 is also connected through wlan.
    I have tried reseting the original settings on the phone and reconfiguring the connection, but it stays the same.
    Any ideas?

    Where are you trying it? Because it does not work in all menus. Try the Media Menu. If it does not work there, then it's not good...

  • Classpath for remote client

    Hi,
    Is there a minimum package of classes (.jar, .zip) that are required for
    remote client application to call EJBs in WL 5.1 container ?
    My remote application works fine if I include WL_HOME/classes in its
    classpath. The problem is that WL_HOME/classes directory is huge. I am
    looking for some lightweight package of classes that would contain only
    client side implementation of WL's RMI, JNDI and EJB - just enough to
    call EJBs from remote client application.
    I couldn't find such .jar in the WL 5.1 installation.
    Can anybody help ?
    thanks,
    Rafal

    These is no such jar provided by BEA. You can try to create one using
    verbose2zip: http://www.weblogic.com/docs51/techstart/utils.html#verbosetozip
    If network speed allows for it, you can network classload from WebLogic :
    http://dima.dhs.org/misc/ThinClient.jsp or
    http://dima.dhs.org/misc/ThinClient2.jsp
    (this will download few hundred k, so it is not acceptable for a client
    connected via 28.8 modem).

  • ITunes 12 - "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organised" feature no longer works

    Hi everyone, I was wondering if you could help me with an issue I've been having.
    Since updating to iTunes 12, the 'Keep iTunes Media Folder Organised' feature no longer works. When I add media to the library, iTunes doesn't copy it to a destination within my media library. It only works if I turn the feature off, and then back on again.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I don't use the feature myself, but it works properly in a test library for me.
    It could possibly be a permissions issue. Different processes in iTunes seem to make use of either the system or the user account for file actions and it is just possible that which has been used in that case has changed. See Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows for details.

  • Minimum requirements for home server

    I am looking to get a cheap iMac, Mini or iBook to use as a home server to run iTunes 24/7. I will be attaching an external HD for storage space for my media and will stream wirelessly to Apple TV over 802.11g using an Airport Express. What would be the minimum requirement for such a setup? Would the minimum requirement be what the latest version of iTunes require?
    Message was edited by: Mac4lfe

    Hi Mac4lfe: If you want to SYNCH between the Mac and the ATV, then any G3 will do, just expect the synching to be slow. If you want to STREAM from the Mac to ATV, then a G3 will do for music but not for video. If you want to stream video, a G4 will do, but you will get a lot of beachballs when you do anything on iTunes and sometimes the streaming will fail. I suggest you get the cheapest Intel Mac, you will have a much better experience when streaming. Lastly, remember you will need a screen for the Mini, there will always be warnings, error messages, updates, etc in iTunes that you need a screen, mouse and keyboard for. Very lastly, you can just get the ATV and buy music, TV shows, Movies and rent movies without a Mac. 160GP shall be enough. I have 40 movies, 20 full TV seasons and 6000 songs and am just over 400GB.

  • With Aero feature no longer in Windows, what third party apps exist for Powershell Tabs/Transparent

    Hello,
    I am looking for ways to make the windows PowerShell console support tabs and being transparent. As Microsoft has removed the Aero feature from Windows you can no longer make a window transparent. I know a few applications exist on the market for PowerShell
    but would like to know if any are recommended for the features I am looking for?
    Thank you,
    Joseph

    From the windows 8 section of the link you sent
    " the Glass theme was ultimately removed, as Microsoft designers wanted to avoid skeuomorphism. The desktop interface on the final release of Windows 8 was modified to incorporate elements of the Metro design language; in comparison to Windows
    7, the interface adopted a flatter look with almost no transparency effects, fewer rounded edges, and solid colored window borders designed to attract more attention to the content of a window
    Everything I have read says that this has been removed. That aside. I am aware that PowerShell is a Console. I would like that Console to be transparent and support tabs so that when I am working I can utilize the ability to see work that shares the same
    screen space as my PS console. This is not a required feature by any means, it is just something I would like for when I am working with multiple PS consoles and multiple applications that I may be pulling or outputting data to.
    Again I am aware there are several third party applications that will allow me to achieve this but I am skeptical about using them and wanted to see if there was any feedback I could get in regards to using one of them.
    I hope this better explains what I am asking. If not its not a huge deal as this does not stop me from doing any of my normal work. I just remember being able to have transparent terminals in Linux but as I do not work with Linux anymore, I am S.O.L.
    Thanks
    Joseph
