SageMC, HD200, My Videos

[kmp14]

HD200, 6.6 running on WHS, Shared videos on another PC via UNC, SageMC.

My first post! New SageTV, but tired of MCE, so I pulled trigger and ordered an HD200. Bear with me as I get used to traversing the forums....might be some dumb questions coming!

Anyway, first issue: Got everything looking good, except that when I choose Videos, the spinner icon starts spinning, but the HD200 stays on the main menu, and the videos browser never shows up. Any help would be appreciated.

Also. when running SageTV client on a PC, the problem does NOT occur.

Did you follow the steps listed to make hd200 loading fast. Are you using fanart (BMT) yet or just folder jpegs?

I can't find them either I am looking off the top of my head

Make sure cach all images at load in the sagemc options is selected
Make sure you java heap is around 1gb (my recomendation)
In the general sagetv detailed setup/customization settings/inactivity timeout/user input timeout change to like 5ms

Also coming from media center if you likes mediabrowser I recomend getting into fanart it will improve your experience greatly. As well as Sage Movie Wall my addin, tv info, advanced movie info,grouped recording screens, are all great additions I recomend. BMI is the progam you want to get fanart.

cheers
