Q-01 | I think this software is crap, how to get rid of this "virus" |
---|---|
A | Just reflash your player with a original firmware But if you realy want to leave all the parts (in case of a RMA) you need to REFORMAT your kiss (there is a other way, but its a little complex) |
Q-02 | How did you do the trick of putting all those files on my harddisk? |
A | I modified the /etc/bootstart, this will launch a program called "stage2". This file looks for the existents of the file
/hdd/stage2/initstage2f. If this exist it will execute the file. If it don't exist, it will start a hushshell from the
/bin/setup.init.
This will download a file from a web server named down2f.init. And this file will be executed. (And just use wget to download the parts) |
Q-03 | Can you fix some bugs with ff/rw/playback? |
A | No, this software can't fix, its just ad-on. Sometimes it is possible to have a workaround, but that just depend of the problem |
Q-04 | How is the directory structure? |
A | /hdd/stage2 is the main directory. It contains ./bin ./htmlroot ./img. ./snd The img contains some backgrounds. The ./snd is for some little sound samples. The others are obvious. Also look here! |
Q-05 | I can't change the background? |
A | You forgot to change the symlink in the initscript , also just look at the MODULES: menu, you will find some links or use KiSS DVD Player and surf to Stage2 KML page with your remote (there you have links for changing the background). |
Q-06 | what is the use of the haserl file? |
A | haserl is a scripting language. With this file you can write some complex scripting. I don't use it, but I think I will in the future |
Q-07 | Where is the sed file? |
A | I removed it, it now in the bbbin from busybox (other one was to buggy) |
Q-08 | Where is gawk file? |
A | also use the busybox version now |
Q-09 | This software does not work when the kiss is recording? |
A | Don't blame this software. The reason for this is that the kissplayer is shutting down the Ethernet as soon as recording is started. I don't think its possible to change that. The software is still running but you just can't connect to the kiss at that point |
Q-10 | Will this software harm my player? |
A | No |
Q-11 | Will this software harm my warranty? |
A | Im not sure, just reflash with original firmware, and format hard disk in case of RMA |
Q-12 | Will this software slow down my kiss-player? |
A |
No i even think is faster because this software use inetd so the player will not have ftp loaded at playback -: If you find some different behaviour on playback (compared to the original firmware!) please let me know |
Q-13 | How to enable login authentication on telnet (username/password)? |
A |
you need to edit the inetd.conf |
Q-14 | I found a bug, how to report? |
A |
Send me an email at martinb@zonnet.nl -: And please provide me information on how to reproduce it, and info about the player (revision) |
Q-15 | I demand you to write the following ad-in, and I want it NOW! |
A | No, I don't think so. If you want, just write it yourself. |
Q-16 | Can you please write the following ad-in? |
A | Just ask in the mpcclub forum, I'm not that great in programming. Also I have very little spare time. |
Q-17 | How can I help? |
A | Take a good look at the parts you can improve and please contact me so we don't do things twice. |
Q-18 | How can I contact you? |
A | Send me an email at martinb@zonnet.nl | Q-19 | I just love this software so much, how can i donate? |
