  1. Media Creator does not allow choice of media


    Downloaded Media Creator and tried to use it to create media for another PC, but never was given the choice of media. Program tried to install on my C: drive and claimed I had insufficient space. What gives? I redowloaded three times and tried running twice with each download. No luck. Advice?

    :)

    Costless Media Centre PC!

    link in my sig has all the details, go read there.

    while the link mentions windows 7, it has step by step guides for setting up MPC-HC (media player classic home cinema) for the best performance on weaker media PC's

  3. Media Cloud on Intranet

    Killer_Rubber_Ducky,
    Just to recap after talking with you....
    The school is a private school funded 100% by donations so money is tight (isn't it with everyone?) which is why you are looking for a solutions (or combination) to build this...

    Existing hardware includes:
    • 10gbps fiber network backbone to all buildings
    • 20 buildings in plan for media distribution (equal to 20 managed switches)
    • 100 mbps inside all buildings from 1gbps fiber ports through managed switches
    • 15 Servers - Windows, VmWare, & Linux (Linux for web servers, LDAP, Radius, and Wireless Controller). Linux builds installed on virtual machines with vmware ESXi.
    Media to be distributed:
    • Existing media converted to digital (CDs, DVDs, VHS, etc....)
    • Any new digital media purchased (or licensed) by the school
    • Pictures
    • Documents (viewing only)
    • Streaming (Netflix, Pandora, etc....) NOTE: Access to this needs to be controlled on a user basis. Students should not have free access at all times...
    Design intent:
    • Client Side Experience:
      • Controller (perhaps touch screen device) provides access to the media and controls what is played and where it is played (locally on the controller as a preview or on the Monitor).
      • Monitor - (LCD TV / or other connected via IP on network or to controller?)
      • User Authentication required (to access the media library) looking to Active Directory (LDAP) for permissions.
    • Server Side Experience:
      • Manage All Client Devices (Add, Remove, Schedule, IP Assignments, etc...)
      • Client Statistics (see history, current, and other statistical data)
      • Media Management (Add, Delete, Approve, other)
      • User Accounts (This is for the management of this media system only. Access is controlled by Active Directory permissions and provided through LDAP).
    Your mention of the "cloud" only implies the physical concept for the media server using vmware (or other virtualization app) to host a Server image and manage data thru-put. Right? Since the school is exploring a purchase of a new server loaded with RAM - This may be a good idea...Any throughts from anyone else?

    Did I leave anything out?
