I installed the new 2007HE and decided to try Orb. I am having a tough time. I set the bitrate to 80, changed the streaming to RM on both the server and the 770 but cannot get video to stream. I set up portforwarding and made sure UnPnP was turned on in my router. I can get audio to stream and I can get video to work when viewing from my laptop, but on the 770 it just opens mediaplayer, then nothing. BTW, I am running Vista on the server.

Any tips would be appreciated.

Re: Help with Orb

I've noticed that it's the same with MediaStreamer. I can stream music, but not video. Not even videos that I can play off of my memory card.

Does anyone have any tips?

Sometimes I've been able to get video to work, sometimes just the audio, and sometimes neither. I've never gotten live TV to work (in spite of the promise) and my contacts with the support desk, while somewhat helpful, have never solved these problems. They told me to re-install Orb, which I did, but with no improvement, alas:(
