Dear Moderaters jleavens, The Robman, David Bott,all other ReplayTV enthusiasts, and ReplayTv Gurus,
I see the popularity of this forum particularly the RTV related one growing enormously among many of us to the extent of many of us even buying RTVs faster after surfing thro' this forum and to the extent that Sonicblue tech support reps themselves recomending to surf here to get more info. ( Atleast this happened to me more than once).
You people are doing an extraordinary job in answering lot of our q's be it simple , complicated, meaningful or stupid, all I thought I could request from u are is there any way u could set up a dedicated thread or page for simple details (yet major problems for many of us ) on
1. Sonicblue photoviewer software related issues, like from finding an alternative or properway of settingup etc (as mentioned in another thread the software is very poor, I had problems multiple times ( with Xp os)).
2.DVarchive related issues: Again from scratch to more detailed info,
for ex: I have downloaded the program from the appropriate site multiple times, and all i see is either zip files or jar files which with extraction didn't really do what ever body is talking about.
3.Harddrive upgrading
4. Firmware upgrading if any
in other words some threads or info web pages thro' links similar to the www.vcdhelp.com, as dedicated step by step info.
I know it is too much of asking, but I think this will enourmously minimize lot of repeat queries with multiple threads for similar issues, although everybody go thro' FAQ's about RTV at the beginning of the forum, I am sure many will agreee that atleast for newbies like me not all the info thro' the FAQ thread is enough or complete.
I am desperate about setting up the DVarchive on my PC for directly transferring some of my favorite program ( I have XP OS 512 MB DDR, 80 GB HD, with RTV 4504 connected to broadband cable connection thro' router ( MR 314) and PC internet connection sharing thro' MA101 Netgear USB adapter, my PC pings RTV IP well)
Lastly, I heard from one of the RTV (sonicblue) tech support person the other day, that the tech support will be replaced by the call center oriented tech support people from India beginnning next week, not that I am against it, but how could somebody possibly give good support about a product which is specific for country like USA or Canda, as the concept is not there yet in India I think, ( I may be wrong )
Thanks
Jingcha
