All I expect out of the HUB is for it to work properly. I have been fighting with the meta-source manager and it just plain doesnt want to return antyhing. Seen all the sites, fourms and support - to no avail. I’m not going through the headache of using thumgen or other software to do what I paid for when I purchased this unit.
All updates are fine and the unit is hardwired to my router. Filled out a support tickect and all they said was to check the names of the files. This doesnt quite cut it. Not gonna do it - not with more than a 1000 flicks to rename.
I tried the new XBMC/KODI media center - connected two WD external HDD’s to my laptop - ran the scraper in KODI and BAMM - all 1200 +/- movies had thum’s, detail, fanart, profiles everything. I needed to change a few - but no hassle at all.
Why cant this happen with my HUB. I go as far back as the original WDTV. And am disappointed with Western Digital right now. It may be time to just remove the HDD from the unit and toss the rest.
Unless any of you folks have any sure fire ways to make it work properly.
I understand it’s an old piece of equipement, but thought it may be usable. I bought it a couple of years ago and let it sit due to the glitchy-ness of the unit. I broke it out a few weeks ago and from seeing the posts in the fourms and support pages - I though it may have been updated or fixed by WD.
Oh well - I can use the HDD from the unit and toss the rest.
Yeah - it’s probably me. If I could change the meta-source I would. Do you know how? I tried to change the site but to no avail. Not sure what you mean - do you manually change the site?
Yep - looks like that’s the scraper shown under setup/meta-source manager. I tried to change the site the unit goes to for info - but can’t change it. When I choose ADD New meta-source, my only options are internal drives or external drive - no access to a site or even the network.
If your intention was to have me direct the unit to that particular site - please tell me how?
