View Full Version : HME woes: TiVo's server works, others don't

I used to have Galleon 2.3 running on my PC however during the last couple of months it just (mostly) quit working. None of the applications I had configured show up, adding my PC's ip address doesn't work. Multiple uninstall/reinstall/reboot cycles have no effect.

What is weird is that the Galleon TivoGoBack server shows up in my now-playing list, if I enable it. Additionally, TiVo's HME application works (photos/music and TivoGoBack), but the HD support for photos on the S3 just doesn't appear.

Furthermore, I can run Tivo.NET on my pc and configure it just fine, but it doesn't show up in the Now Playing list.

Does anyone have any idea why TiVo's HME apps would show up, but Galleon's wouldn't?

I've tried uninstalling all HME apps, rebooting and just installing one, but no joy. The only one that ever works now is TiVo's HME 2.4. It's ok, but Galleon is so much better, and I'd really like for Tivo.NET to work so I don't have to plan ahead and transcode videos I want to watch.

It drives me crazy because it used to work just fine, and no major changes have been made to my machine since it broke.

I don't have a VPN, or multiple network cards on my PC either.

Any clues?

Sounds as if you got the 8.3 service upgrade - I got it about a week ago and Galleon hasn't worked since!

Does anyone have any idea why TiVo's HME apps would show up, but Galleon's wouldn't? Because TiVo's apps are dsigned and maintained by TiVo. Galleon was designed by a third party and not maintained.

Could be.

But then TiVo's own HD image viewer doesn't work for me either.
