What "wdlxtv initial beta release for these devices"?

[KAD]

yep, it's currently beta, no public release yet
anybody with access to Area 51 will be able to access it

Well, it's not quite beta yet - it's more like alpha. Lots of things still don't work (like UMSP). It's a work in progress...

@gustos,

1. install wdlxtv
2. use telnet/ssh to set the path, in the same way variables like this were set on previous firmwares

Has the WDLXTV firmware for SMP been released yet? I can't find anything on it.

Thanks!

Hi,

Purchased the WDTV Live SMP this month and have literally spent every free minute of the last week tinkering with moviesheets. Got them the way I liked but wanted no loading times and instant displays, so read up on the above method. Excellent work and kudos to everyone involved in getting this linksheet type method working on the SMP

I've got my SMP running b-rads custom firmware and have added some test moviesheets (renamed to be exact name as movie filename) to Black Mambas theme and put them onto a USB stick. (followed instructions as per http://community.wdc.com/t5/WD-TV-Live-Hub-Themes/Theme-GoodBye-Black-Mamba-LinkSheet-Updated-Dec-14th/td-p/510386)

But for the step:

b.run any theme from a usb drive by setting this value
CODE: SELECT ALL
config_tool -c THEME_PATH=/path/to/root/of/theme

- I'm not sure what the path is of my USB stick is? Is it just '/usb/'? (i.e. 'THEME_PATH=/usb/') [completely guessing here - I assume there's a different path for the front USB port and the rear USB port on the SMP?]

Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, been googling and searching this forum for the past couple of hours on this (almost last) step. Appreciate any help!
