Hey James,
Changed the Host name from BobBurns-PC to the ip address of 192.168.0.3
I don't undertand why it would make any difference if either one works as the app asks for but whatever.
Now it says "network name cannot be found"
Have wavwatchfolder entered as path. Computer path is C:\voxcommando\wavwatcherfolder
Windows password is entered correctly.
User is still Bob Burns
P.S What is an es file you refered to?
Thanks!
If you get the message "network name cannot be found" then you have set something wrong and the android cannot see the windows PC on the network. It is probably one of these:
- you are using the wrong IP address
- your have not enabled file sharing on the windows PC
- your firewall is blocking you
- your Android and Windows computer are not on the same network.
In my previous message I actually said "I recommend you install es file explorer on your android". Rather than asking me what it is,why not take two seconds to google "es file explorer" ?
The first hurdle is to set up filesharing on your Windows computer correctly so that other machines on your LAN (local area network) can access it. Do you have more than one computer on the network? If you do, then you should try to connect to the shared folder from one of your other computers first to make sure you have a working network and share.
If you want, I can try to help you using a screen sharing program called "TeamViewer". If so, send me a PM with your email address.
I am working on a new version of VoxWav that will not use the filesharing, but will instead send the data diretly through TCP so you may just want to wait for that. I think it will be ready for testing within a week.
However you will still need a working LAN with both the windows PC and your android connected to it. If you are using XBMC with VoxCommando then you are
probably OK.
