04 Media Sharing // Popcorn Hour C-200
4.1 Installing Media Servers on your PC
4.1.1 myiHome
When it comes to digital content, there is always the hassle of organizing and presenting your
content for playback. Showcasing your digital content is made simpler by having an organized
media library.
The fundamental concept behind the myiHome Media Server has always been an easy to use,
simple to navigate and quick to access method to showcase your contents.
myiHome is updated automatically when it detects new content. It also allows transcoding, which
means that if the NMT does not support the reproduction of some form of native multimedia file
for lack of proper codec, myiHome transcodes it on the computer to reproduce such content via
network streaming. This way, you do not have to re-encode the file to another compatible format
for use on the NMT.
To set up myiHome on your PC, follow the steps below.
1. Download the latest version of myiHome from:

http://www.popcornhour.com/download/myihome/myihome.html
34
2. Once the download is complete, launch the installation program.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions to install the myiHome program.
4. Once the installation is complete, launch the program and follow the onscreen instructions to
set up the myiHome program.
4.1.2 UPnP AV or DLNA Server
Your NMT will automatically detect all available UPnP AV compliant content servers on starting up
and will list them on the Media Source screen. No additional setup is required on the unit itself.
It is possible to access attached USB storage devices remotely using your NMT. Browse to
Setup>Network Share on your NMT to see the USB storage devices attached to your PC.
The attached USB storage devices must be formatted with Ext2 / Ext3 or FAT16 / FAT32 in order
to be compatible with your NMT. This will enable you to upload, change or execute files
(NTFS and HFS formatted drives are read-only).

Note: FAT16 and FAT32 formats have a file size limitation at 4 GB, which may pose a
problem for large media files such as a DVD ISO with minimal compression.
35
Some servers may require additional authorization configuration on the server-side, such as the
Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service (WMP-NSS) described below.
4.1.3 Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service (WMP-NSS)
WMP-NSS allows you to playback your PC’s media files using your NMT when both units are
connected to your home LAN network.
To enable WMP-NSS playback on your NMT, the NMT has to be authorized using the WMPNSS
application on your PC. Follow the steps below to set up the WMP-NSS.
1. Ensure that both your PC and NMT are connected to your LAN and switched on.
2. On your PC, launch the WMPNSS application, select the following menu options:
Options > Library > Configure Sharing
3. Select the checkbox next to the Share my media to menu item. You should now have a list
of detected devices to choose from on the menu (right-clicking a selected device listed on it
will show you a list of options).
36
4. Select Properties to view details about each device. Find the device that matches the MAC

4.2.1 Samba Share Setup
To set up your NMT for Samba Sharing, navigate to Setup > Network Share. You can browse
your SMB network and add the path to the list, or manually input the path to your SMB share by
selecting the add button:
smb://<hostname or ipaddr>/foldername
38
4.2.2 NFS (Network File System) Shares Setup
To set up your NMT for NFS sharing, navigate to Setup > Network Share, and type in the full
path to your NFS share, as shown below.
smb://<hostname or ipaddr>/foldername (colon after hostname is required)
With firmware 01-15-080330-14-POP-402 or newer you can select the protocol (TCP or UDP)
used for the NFS connection:
nfs:// (UDP)
nfs-tcp:// (TCP)
Some firewalls, including the Microsoft® Windows XP firewall will block critical parts of UDP
NFS server connections, even if correctly configured. If you experience a No content found
error when using UDP, try switching to the TCP mode.
Some gigabit switches have problems with UDP, thus preventing data streaming (viewing files
may appear to be unaffected). If you encounter this problem, try switching to the TCP mode.

To setup your NMT to perform BitTorrent downloads, you must first have the NMT Applications
installed on your NMT. The supplied BitTorrent client is accessible using your PC connected to
the NMT via network. Follow the steps below to access the BitTorrent client:
1. On your PC, use a web browser to access the BitTorrent client on the NMT. Type the following
address in the URL address bar of the web browser:
http://NMT-IP:8883/torrent/bt.cgi
(where NMT-IP is the IP address of your NMT on your network, for example 192.168.2.2.)
94
2. At the BitTorrent client GUI, click on Browse and select the torrent file that you have downloaded
to your PC earlier.
3. Once the torrent file is selected, click on Upload to add the torrent file to the torrent list on your
NMT. The BitTorrent client will start the torrent download if the Torrent option on your NMT is
enabled.
4. Other functions available such as the Scheduler can be used to schedule torrent downloads and
set their upload/download limits, or the Setting screen to customize the BitTorrent client.
Note: The NMT has to be switched ON and properly connected to the Internet during the scheduled

download time in order for the BitTorrent client to download the required files.
95
7.2.1 Enable/Disable BitTorrent Downloading
The BitTorrent client runs as a service on the NMT and installed together with the NMT Applications
package.
To enable or disable the BitTorrent service, follow the steps below:
1. Go to Setup > NMT Applications.
2. In the list of installed NMT Applications, locate the Torrent application and notice its status.
3. If the status is labeled Start, it means that the BitTorrent client is currently disabled.
Select Start to enable it or Stop to disable the BitTorrent client.
96
7.3 Usenet Client Setup: NZBGet
NZBGet is a command-line based binary newsgrabber that downloads files from Usenet servers
based on information given in NZB files. NZBGet can be installed on the NMT and the files can
be downloaded straight into the NMT.
To run the NZBGet application you need access to a Usenet provider. Your ISP may have a news
server that you can access, or you can have a separate Usenet account on a pay-server. Usenet
accounts vary in prices from a few dollars up to $35 a month depending on your needs. There are
many Usenet servers to choose from, and here is a list provided by Google:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=usenet+provider+comparison
Once you have a Usenet account, you can configure NZBGet on your NMT to access the account.
Your Usenet provider will provide you with the information required, such as:
1. User ID and Password.
2. News-server name and port to connect (usually at port 119).
3. Number of concurrent connections allowed.
97
7.3.1 Setting up the NZBGet on the NMT
In the root of your hard disk you will find a folder called .nzbget. Inside this folder you will
find two files: nzbget.conf and unpak.sh.
Note: Some FTP clients may hide this folder because it begins with a dot .. On UNIX
systems, files or folders that begin with a dot are hidden from normal directory
listings. If you cannot see the folder, find an option on your client that will show
hidden files or try to type in the folder name.
You can open and edit nzbget.conf with a text editor.
Note: To edit the nzbget.conf file, use a UNIX-format capable text editor.
In the text editor, fill in the information you got from your Usenet provider:
# Host-name of news server:
server1.host=news.yourserver.com
(Put the server name behind the = )
98
# Port to connect to
(default should be set to 119 if not specified):
server1.port=119
# Username to use for authentication

(change USERNAME to the name supplied by your Usenet provider):
server1.username=USERNAME
# Password to use for authentication

(change PASSWORD to the password supplied by your Usenet provider):
server1.password=PASSWORD
# Maximum number of simultaneous connections to this server:
server1.connections=4
Once completed, save the file to the same place and restart the Usenet service in the NMT
Applications menu (Setup > NMT Applications).
99
7.3.2 Usenet: Working with NZBGet
Working with NZBget is simple and quick. Connect to the NZBGet web GUI from a browser
via http://ip.of.your.nmt:8066.
Note: If the IP address of your NMT is 192.168.1.100, type

http://192.168.1.100:8066 in the address bar of your web browser.
To log in, use the following access username and password:

Next, click the Upload File button and begin the download.
The file will be uploaded to your NMT and added to download queue.
(This process does not upload any files to the Internet).
102
After uploading the NZB file, it will take a minute before the program commences the download.
There is a safety interval of 1 minute to allow NZBGet to ensure that the NZB file is completely
on the HDD before commencing the download. You may adjust the safety interval in nzbget.conf,
option NzbDirFileAge. The progress of the download is displayed on the web GUI for your
convenience.
After a download is finished and the NZB file set contains par2 files, your download will be checked
and repaired if necessary. The unpack script in .nzbget will be called and your download will be
unpacked. The unpack script of the NMT is able to unpack .RAR packed files and also unpack .RAR
files nested inside of .RAR packs.
With the GUI you will be able to pause, delete, and move your downloads. You may set the file
download priority of important file by moving them to the top of the queue with the buttons in
front of the file set.
If you want to pause all downloads, you can do that via the pause button on the bottom left of
the web GUI, and restart it again with the resume button.
All downloads will be downloaded and unpacked to the folder Download on your NMT’s HDD and
will be in a folder that has the same name as the NZB file you uploaded, so be sure to give your
NZB files descriptive names to ease identification.

08 Troubleshooting // Popcorn Hour C-200
8.1 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
This collection of frequently asked questions (FAQs) provides brief answers to many common
questions about the Popcorn Hour C-200 NMT.
Q1: Why can’t I play my DVD .iso file using myiHome?
myihome does not support DVD playback. Please use the SMB/NFS functions for DVD .iso playback.
Q2: My Popcorn Hour C-200 NMT will not start after resetting it using the factory default
settings function.
The factory default setting function will reset your video display to the Auto mode, which may not
be compatible with your TV or projector. Refer to Video Mode Options to change your display
mode to suit your TV or projector.
Q3: There is no display or video output after waking up the Popcorn Hour C-200 NMT
from Standby mode.
This is because the Video output mode has been changed using the TV MODE key and the settings
were not saved. Go to Setup > Audio/Video to configure the Video Output mode again and save
the settings using the SAVE button.
105
Q4: (HDMI Mode) During initial setup, no display or video signal detected.
1. Disconnect the HDMI connection and connect your NMT to your TV using a Composite Video
connection
2. Restart the NMT and wait for the loading screen to appear
3. Wait until the screen goes blank
4. Press TV MODE -> 1 for NTSC or TV MODE -> 2 for PAL on your remote control to force a
video output mode.
5. Once the menu screen is visible, go to Setup > Audio/Video and set up the proper HDMI
output mode for your TV and then SAVE the selection.
6. Remove the Composite Video connections and reconnect the HDMI connectors to the NMT and
your TV.
7. Restart the NMT.
106
Q5: Can I plug in an external CD/DVD-ROM drive?
Yes, the USB port can support an external CD/DVD-ROM drive. However, the NMT does not support
CSS encryption. Your DVD must region-free and encryption-free in order to use the CD/DVD-ROM
drive function.
Q6: Where can I download/update the firmware for my Popcorn Hour C-200 NMT?
See Firmware and NMT Applications Update for instructions and more information.
Q7: Help, my video files are not playing. Is this a bug or a faulty Popcorn Hour C-200 NMT?
Not all codec and encoding formats are compatible with your NMT. See Supported Audio/Video
Formats or go to MediaInfo (http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/) for more information.
For further help and information regarding video playback, kindly refer to our forum at
http://www.networkedmediatank.com for advice.
107
Q8: Why won’t the video subtitles appear?
• Ensure that the subtitles are in a supported format
• The subtitle file must be in the same folder as the video file
• The name of the subtitle file must be the same as the name of the movie
(except for the file format extension).
• The Subtitle Language (Setup > Preferences > Subtitle Language) must not be set to
None, as this will disable all subtitles. Remember to save the setting when done.
Q9: How do I back up my DVD so that it can be played back by the Popcorn Hour C-200 NMT ?
The DVD has to be saved into the .iso format. DVD .iso playback is only supported via NFS/SMB
network connection (it will not work with myiHome). In case of poor quality playback in SMB, use
NFS to share the file.
108
Q10: How do I recover the Popcorn Hour C-200 NMT from a failed firmware update with
the fail-safe kernel?
To recover the NMT if the firmware update fails and the NMT is no longer responding, visit the
