Playing movies from Wireless HDD

Im using a Wireless HDD (AGOSY Network Drive) connected to an AP to give it wireless capabilities. This has been installed wth a 12V connection to be able to be powered from the car battery.
I am having probems with the file system when its acessed from the PDA especialy. The enclusure is ARGOSY Network enclosure and when playing media from TCPMP/MediaPayer or PocketPlayer or any other movie player, seeking is not possible and most .AVI files are not playable from within the HDD. While the same .AVI files if copied to the StorageCard the seeking works fine and the vdeos which don't play directly from Wireless system play well directly from the storage card.
Is anyone having the same problem with their wireless network drive or is this a problem with the type of network encosure used?

hmmm... can you play it from your computer share? through wireless or USB

i dont quite understand your question. :?
i have an asus wl-hdd 2.5 and a o2 exec
from standard i could find the hard drive through wifi and form a partnership but i was unable to browse the contents of the hard drive
to remedy this i installed resco file explorer , this then gives you a network file which you will have to map,
you are unable to search for files through tcmp or wm player but with resco installed you can search the directory of your hard drive and press on what you want to play.
i find tcmp a better player for media streaming than wm player

i think i now understand your question when you mean seeking do you mean the time slider.
if so yes i can place it in a chosen spot and play the movie from that spot.
there will be a few second time lag before it initiates playing.
1 what speed is you wireless hard drive connection
2 what size are the movies you are trying to play
3 what resolution are the movies you are trying to play
i find that 640x480 movies will jam up quite alot but 320x240 movies work smoothly
if it jams up i normaly lose my wifi connection (must confuse the hard drive os)

Copy Target Location in Resco Explorer???

Hi,
How the hell do i copy a files location/target on my phone eg My Documents\pic.jpg etc, as I have my Touch HD linked to my network so that I can access my shared drives. I do this with Resco Explorer, but I havent a clue as to how I can copy the folder/file target location? I need this so that i can paste this location into Media Player to choose files, as movie files do not stream from the shared drive when i select them with Resco.
I am hoping that the movie files will stream if i give the exact location into Media Player. If not, any ideas how to stream 350mb .avi files from my PC to the phone??? Thanks.

Does nobody have a clue as to how to copy the target path of a file/folder in Resco Explorer? If there is another way to browse network files NOT in REsco Explorer, please do tell. I'm not sure what teh problem with playing the movie files is, as i tried playing files off the network, which played perfectly when stored on the card, yet didn't play when streaming. However, music played no problems
If anybody has figured out how to stream movies over a network i'd be glad to know how!

In the settings there should be a option to enable network outside resco it requires a restart but then media player should pic up the network shares

[Q] How to play streaming WMA music content on TouchPro2

I have an XM receiver which I "line in" into my computer and encode the music with Microsoft Expression Encoder 4. The encoder outputs it to a wma stream which I can then access over the Internet on other computers, laptops, etc. using the URL (which points to port 8090).
BUT I CAN'T GET IT TO PLAY ON MY TP2. On the phone, I have tried Windows Media Player, Nitrogen Player, and the phone's Streaming Media Player. Nothing works.
Suggestions welcome.

SPB Radio can stream music as long as you stream it through internet and in .pls format.
You can enter an URL as a new radio station and as long as it has a DNS or an external IP you should be fine. You can use Shoutcast to stream your own music from home (if that's what you want).
Home: Computer running with Winamp and Shoutcast, internet active and external IP.
Your phone: open SPB Radio and type your external IP followed by the port (Example http://81.254.128.68:8000)

[Q] Music access

Sorry for being such a noob but I have transferred music to my GNex from my windows 7 computer and I not only can't play it but I can't even find it on the GNex. Came from Samsung Fascinate w/ sd card and am having trouble with the learning curve. Please advise. Do I need a music player that isn't on the device out of the box?

Music is normally stored in the sdcard\music folder on the phone's internal storage. Obviously it is hard to tell if you accidentally placed it in another location without looking at the phone. You can install es file manger or astro file manager for free from the market and browse your phone's internal storage and look for music files that way.
I would also suggest install the poweramp (free trial) music player from the market as that automatically searches your phone's storage for music files.
Hope this helps.
