Problem with Nero Media Home

1 replies · 3,256 views · Started 13 February 2007

Hi.. my first post here after a long time on AAS guys.. was a regular forumer back in the days of my 7610... so finally today i have bought a New Nokia N80 internet edition, i just couldn't wait for the N95 and rest. Maybe will upgrade to them later but this isn't about it.

So i heard the N80 could do VOIP, has UpNp and all and i decided to try it out. My first problem is with Nero media home. Its a fairly easy software to use... just define the folders you want to share and start the server up. When i do this.. i go to Gallery> Home network> Nero Media Home

I can browse all the files but when i try to copy them to phone memory or memory card, on the computer i can see that there is a transfer request and the file begins to copy on both the phone and the software but in the end, the file just vanishes from the software like transfer has been completed and data shows that the exact amount of data has been sent. However on the phone, it just says copy failed. I am wondering what can be causing this problem?

Also when i click on Play via home network it just says waiting for devices. Anybody that has used Nero Media home successfully can perhaps help me out with this.

I have tried simplecenter but starting its server up and going to home network through gallery, that doesn't even show the server like it does of Nero's. im using ORB atm but streaming quality is pathetic as my internet is slow even though esentially the phone and my laptop are on the same WAN IP.

I am using a LINKSYS WRT54GS with DD-wrt firmware which is totally customizable. Firewall on my windows is on and i can see that Nero Media Home is an exception.

Any help regarding this would be great! I hear Cash is a power N80 user 😊

I would like the end solution to allow me to move files from the pc to the phone and vice versa and also be able to stream video from the PC to the phone using WiFi.
