Hello my friend, i found the brand is KINTEC. But pay attention there are two kinds of mediaplayer. Only the one with HDMI is based on RTD1262 (see ://maiwo.hk/en/products/show.asp?id=87). Sorry for the incomplete Link, depend on the pages rules.
Best regards
Thanks again CiccioPets!
Ok! I'll look into that link you sent and see if I can go from there!
In the meantime, cTorrent and Enhanced cTorrent are fully avalaible projects on Sourceforge, here:
cTorrent Project
Enhanced cTorrent Project
Do take a look!
Cheers!
Hi,
really good job!
If you have found the new version of the torrent client should be possible to
compile for the MIPS platform
in this blog there are some useful info how to build a toolchain to do that:

I'm not sure to recover a copy that I already made, but I think should
be simple to reconstruct it.

Thanks for your help anyway CiccioPets!
Just in case anyone's still reading this, I've managed to solve the issues mentioned on my last post!
I can now specify the partition where the torrent client downloads the files!
And I've also managed get my torrents to seed properly!
Well, most of them, because I've just found another little problem!
Apparently the program won't allow the download of torrent files larger than 2GB!
Let me explain better:
I can download torrents of any size so long as each file in it is lower than 2GB (e.g.: I can download a torrent of 3GB containing 67 rar's of 50MB each; however, I cannot download a torrent containing a single 4GB MKV video file).
I do notice, however, that what I believe is the new version of cTorrent has fixed this problem (here).
So, in summary, I'm still searching for a solution for these problems:
- problem B of my 1st post (I've been converting the files to XviD as I need them, which is hardly a happy solution)
- a way to overcome the 2GB size limit of YODCTCS (the torrent client bundled with "HDMedia Services"); if anyone knows of a workaround on this version of cTorrent I'm using or how to install a new version of cTorrent please do say something!
Thanks again for any input!
Cheers
I've not installalled at moment the torrent application (my cpu is too little to support it)
But I remember some config files where set various options and preferences.
About the torrent sharing I'm not skilled about it, I heard something about the
torrent feeding but I'm not sure how to do it.
Thanks a lot for your heads up CiccioPets!
I honestly thought no one would ever reply! ;D
Luckily, even before your reply I found out about HD Media Services!!
And it's fantastic! I'm using it already! A great Media suite for my Media player indeed! An absolute must!
I was actually returning here to share my discovery when I saw your reply! So thanks for that!
However…not all is perfect…
I know some might call me greedy, but I would like some more options on the torrent application!
1 - I mean, I cannot specify in what partition the files are downloded to!
And that's a big problem if you consider that nowadays any HD movie file is quite capable of exceeding the 4GB filesize limit of the FAT32 partition!
2 - Moreover I didn't manage to add my already downloaded torrent files to the application!
Let's say I want to add my older and already completed files just to share it with others…it's not possible!…I've tried everything!
Well, so now I'm again looking for a solution for these two problems! I do feel like I'm closer to what I wanted however!
Even so, right now I can't afford to just rely on the Media player to download and share my torrents which is what I wanted, so I'll have to keep using the PC anyway…
If you CiccioPets or anyone knows about an update or something that can improve this torrent client and fix this gripes, let me know!
I understand that this is somekind of a variation of ctorrent (CTCS - cTorrent Control Server) I couldn't find enough info on newer versions though…
So I do appreciate your help/input once again guys!
Cheers
Solution for the A point.
Install the HDMEDIA services utilities. The main web page unfortunately is in italian
(only few buttons) but the torrent client is in english
cd /usr/local/etc/hdd/volumes/HDD1
echo nameserver 208.67.222.222 > /etc/resolv.conf
wget ‘http://hdmedia.altervista.org/HDMServices/HDMSInstall.sh’
chmod 777 HDMSInstall.sh
./HDMSInstall.sh
rm HDMSInstall.sh
other info, only in italian: http://hdmedia.altervista.org/HDMServices/Guida.pdf
I own a Storex AivX-385HDRW with a 500GB internal HDD and a Wi-Fi connection pen (that came with it).
I've learned that this media player is a clone of the Ellion HMR 700A series media player (I believe it's this one).
Througout the time I spent tinkering with it I found some very useful information about it and some great how-to's, to which I will take no credit, as all of them were made by their creators, not me!
I was finding hard to get some other stuff working as I wanted and could find no more help in the web…that's when I found this amazing site!
So, first of all, let me share stuff I found:
1 - How to get access to the media player's partitions from the PC (either connected via LAN or Wi-Fi) and how to install add-ons by Thierry (I've tried this and let me say it works beautifully!)
2 - Other Add-ons (and how to allow writing to NTFS partition, even with the disk off) compiled by Freddy (didn't try all of these, but at least enable writing to NTFS works fine!)
Secondly, here's the 2 things which I'm now needing:
A - Install a torrent client on the media player that has a web interface (ideally) or at least a PC interface that would enable me to turn off my PC and leave the media player downloading my torrents.
Initially I thought the solution was with the Transcode Server application that brings a "BitTorrent Agent" application. However, I couldn't get that to work on any of my PC's (Windows 7 and XP).
If anyone knows how to get it to work, please say something!
I've also learned here on the 7th paragraph that it's possible to install software on the writeable partitions and start the software from the PC, however I didn't manage to find anything on this forum or the "friends" fora!
B - Get the player to read MKV's!
Supposedly the transcode server should get that done, but does anyone know how it can be done?
Because I couldn't get that to work!
And does anyone know of another way of doing this without this Transcode Server application?
I've searched a lot here and on the web, before posting and couldn't find anything helpful.
So, now, I've reached a wall.
And so I was hoping for your kind help on these problems of mine…any input will be welcome!
Just so you guys can help me better, right now I can access my media player's partitions (FAT32 (Hdd1) and NTFS (Hdd2)) and write to them as I please through Wi-Fi; I can also access all of the HDD partitions via Linux if needed (I've a distro of it installed on my PC and it mounts all the drives when connected via USB).
Sorry for posting my problems here, but I couldn't find help anywhere else!
Cheers
Hi. :D
A friend bought this media player (CiT HDMI Media Player 1080p SATA HDD Compatible HMP314 Full HD LAN HDMI), and it's not behaving quite as the manual says. Unfortunately no website or tech support in any other form is offered, so after much Googling I landed here.
RealTek Transcode Server has failed to install on both XP and Vista from the supplied disc, so I downloaded v1.14 from your Downloads page. That version had the same problem: disc1.cab is corrupt or missing. However, the Samba and BitTorrent services appear to work on the media player, although installation didn't go quite to plan.
I can't see anything that tells us which chipset is in it, but then neither of us knows much about Linux although we can follow clear instructions.
Thanks in advance.
Hi all, I've a SPC Internet GV3752, and I haven't been able to find any information about it. I think it's pretty much like the HDDs here discussed, but I'm not sure. I've been able to connect to it by Telnet but it's not possible to change anything of the system (it's write-protected). It's an HTTP server but I cannot modify the /var/www directory either. I'd like to start a samba server but I've no idea about how to install it… Any help?

*: not tested as i use only the first, but seems quite logical
Beware, this connector is 3.3V TTL-compliant, you should NOT connect it directly to a serial port but use a 3.3V RS232 converter (MAX3232 or eq).
I personnally use a MAX232 at 5V without issues, so I guess the RT1261 is 5V tolerant, but its a guess so if you do this, it's at your own risk.
If you want a wiring diagram, look in the datasheet of the chip, a reference design just works fine.
Datarate is set at 115200,8N1 at firmware boot time

an anybody tell me if there is openvpn for the box?
Buy a nice wallet is my interesting.I like prada wallets for men,I often buy wallets in some B2C website.prada leather wallet is my love.
[quote]The system board has 2 unused headers, a 4 pin header and a 6 pin header. The 6 pin header is for 2 UART ports, and the first UART port is the console of Linux. The function of 4 pin header is still unknown. When I get more info from Mele I will post it here.[/quote]
Does anyone knows the pin layout of the 6 pin UART interface?
Hi,
if you're still interested there's a way I used to make my player work with 2TB HDD:
1) change the "part.txt" file like this:
udf:10000
ext3:512
ext3(2):100
swap:256
udf2:4096
fat32:52%
ntfs:1%
volume1:MULTIMEDIA1
volume2:MULTIMEDIA2
option:install
(no "res" used/sum of all sizes is less than 1TB(100% is cca 1.86TB))
2) install the fireware
3) connect the HDD to your PC and run gpartition (I have used USB with http://www.sysresccd.org/)
4) move the lase partition to the end of the HDD
5) extend the partition with fat32 and ntfs in it
6) extend the ntfs
Note: I have used "ntfs:1%" and it took some time to extend it. maybe you should use smaller size.
