Hi All, I've just picked up a HD210 and I'm sturggling a little... I'm having problems setting the IP on my new 210. I’ve followed the autorun.bas script, changed the ip settings and I can’t ping the box. Also when the autorun.bas file is on the card it won’t play the video file I have on the root of the card (The sample Dalmations one) but when it’s not on the cad the file plays fine. At the moment I’m using VGA but will need to output to HDMI. Is there a special setting for that? Nothing plays over HDMI only over VGA. My SDHC card is NTFS formatted. I only need to play one video file on Continuous repeat. Many thanks.

  If you need to use a script, I'm attaching two examples here. One looks for any file on the flash card with a .mpg extension. The other looks for any file on the flash card with a .ts extension. All you need on the flash card is this script and your video.
  
  In each case, it loops the video indefinitely. The videomode setting is at the top.
  
  Loop any 1 .mpg video Script
  Loop any 1 .ts video Script
  
  
videomode$="1280x720x60p"
v=CreateObject("roVideoPlayer")
vmode = createobject("roVideoMode")
vmode.SetMode(videomode$)

v.SetLoopMode(true)
list=matchfiles(".","*.mpg")
v.PlayFile(list.RemoveHead())

while true
sleep(1000)
end while

  Will this script output by default to HDMI? Tried working mpg and vob files but no display on the TV...
  
  Also can I change the line : videomode$="1280x720x60p" to 1920x1080x60p? Will the 210 output support that?

  Yes, that resolution goes to hdmi and component. Yes, you can change to 1080.
