few questions iso with menu and usb [ Edited ]

[voodooevil]

Hello.

Iso with menu plays fine on local drive,

but can i play iso with menu from a shared drive on my pc?

Also, will my wd passport drive power down when I trurn off WD HUB?

It seem like the light on the passport always stays on.

Thanks.......Joe

Happy New Year!!!!!

Playing ISOs across the net:  Sure.

Shut down drives when put in Standby:  No.

Shut down drives when the unit is OFF:  Yes.

So when you say I can Play across the net, do I need twonkey enabled?

[TonyPh12345 · Accepted solution]

Twonky has nothing to do with PLAYBACK.

Twonky is only for serving files ON the Hub to something else.

thanks...so I dont need to waste my time with that.
so I had ripped a dvd to iso with dvdfab and also slysoft products
I can play iso with menu when on local hub drive, but I can not see the iso on pc drive. I can see and play mkv fine, but not the iso. Not sure what I need to do...

You're actually using NETWORK SHARE as described in your first post, or are you using MEDIA SERVER?

I am using media server. I am not sure what the difference is.

[TonyPh12345 · Accepted solution]

Well, you just discovered one of the differences..  Media servers don't support ISO.
