My router with built-in firewall works like a charm.

Try connecting when firewall is off...

Is there a port or something that I have to open on my firewall or? The IMDB feature works and the Xbos can go online but the picture is missing. It works on XBMP 2.3. That´s the odd thing.

Just press the white button on your joystick when the movie folder is highlighted or the INFO button if you have the DVD remote.

I assume you are using 2.4 and that your thumbnail/imdb etc. folders are in your xbmp folder and the config.xml points to that folder like this...
Your folder is e:\apps\xbmp\thumbs
and the link in config.xml is
<thumbnails>$HOME\thumbs</thumbnails> or
<thumbnails>e:\apps\xbmp\thumbs</thumbnails> fo the build before this one...
And the same for your imdb folder...
Now what I did is created and thumbs folder, imbd folder (and I did it for all the others..) on f: and changed the tags in my config.xml, like this:
I made f:\thumbs
and changed my tag to
<thumbnails>f:\thumbs</thumbnails>
And the same for the IMDB folder..
And now all my thumbs show up in relax again, my imdb posters show up and I can make thumbs out of those again also!!!!
Please let me know if this works for you also guys!!!!
@JayDee
I really respect all the work you do here and the time you put into it, but you are not all knowing. So if you can't reproduce an error or don't know the answer to a question is it so hard to say "I don't know", now you are pointing to places the error isn't in, even if people tell you it worked ok with older builds, they don't even have NAT etc.
Again I'm not pissing on you but it's ok not to know everything...
(start the flaming....

I am not all knowing in any way....
But i have put more time into bug testing xbmp then most people have had using it.
(I am a beta tester and techsupport mod on the official xbmp forums for the XBMP team just to clear that up)
And having ICS/NAT no configured can and will give you this exact error, so what is wrong with pointing out that it is worth trying with the firewall off...
(As i know the IMDb feature is working 100% when configured correctly)
And flaming will not be tolerated from anyone in this forum
As you all might see i have Moderator powers in this forum, but i hope i wont have to use them very often.
Hopefully i will just have to use it to delete a doublepost or pin/close a topic and thats it

Anyway on the solution that works for me know...
We had a sort of the same problem before with these <directory> tabs, remember the Stand Alone not working (or taking ages to start). That was 2.2 to 2.3.
Now I have aproblem with 2.3 to 2.4 for my hdd version, there is something in these directory pointers that doesn't go right somewhere...
When I pop in a DVD with tbn's on it no problem, file shows up with thumbnails, then when I look in my thumbnail folder (everything points to the right location) no thumbs there, IMDB, no thumbs and only half the info. I can see relax sending the tbn's but they won't show up... Now that is strange... And it all used to work in 2.3...
Than I change the folders, don't use the default ones, and it works.
So could it be, that there is something wrong somewhere with those tags?!?
Very curious about the results of the others with the same problem!

the generate thumbnail feature has never worked, but i noticed it does save the images of the poster on the hard-drive.
will this feature ever work?
Post by: JayDee on August 21, 2003, 07:36:00 AM
Check path to thumbnails folder in config.xml
folder MUST exist for it to work (xbmp dont creat one if it dont exist or path is wrong....)
