Heard about the new box on several internet sites and mentioning new USB features, went to Now TV yesterday and they have spec listing as follows so thought I'd upgrade my white box
USB media formats: | Video: MP4 (H.264), MKV (H.264) Audio: AAC, MP3 Image: JPG, PNG |
Remote: | Infra Red Compatible with various universal remotes |
Ports: | HDMI (cable included), Ethernet, microSD card slot, USB |
NOWHERE does it say that that this hardware is disabled unless you scroll through the help section which given the simplicity of set-up owning one already I saw no reason to do:
Micro SD & USB
You’re currently unable to connect the NOW TV Box to a Micro SD card, or other expandable media storage devices.
It might be subsidised pricewise expected that given it's closed channel list compared to a standard Roku but the lack of openess regarding this is pretty poor!

I have a white and new black now tv box, just found out about Plex, and tried to load the app
I have enabled installer on both boxes and entered a password, when I enter the IP address on my laptop I am not able to get the DAI web page on my browser, what am I doing wrong?

Hi
many thanks for your prompt reply
I have followed the instructions from your link, the development application installer is enabled
I cannot access the DAI webb page url - hhtp://192.168.0.7 for the now box
I have just tried to access my router url - http://192.168.0.1 to check router settings and I cannot do that either, have also tried using my ipad and iphone without success
Have switched router off for 1 minute, no difference? totally stuck

I have a new black NowTV box but whenever I try to enable developer mode, the box restarts and then I check the status when it has reboted using the code it still says Enable as if it hasn't done so. Any ideas?

Did you scroll through the agreement screen first? (takes ages!)

Weirdly I tried it agaain later that evening and it worked perfectly. Perhaps it depends on where you have the cursor on the home menu when you type the code in. I think top left of the main app grid worked for me finally.

I'm still not having any luck with this even after scrolling all the way to the bottom.
Doesn't properly go into Developer Mode, Web Interface not accessible.
Mine is a 4200SK V6.2 build 5109
