Media Streaming in WHS 2011 Shows Recorded TV by Episode Title instead of Series Title

04 August 2011 - 09:50 AM

I like to watch some of my non-protected Ceton Infinitv shows at work sometimes through the silver light streamer on the homeserver.  One annoying quirk is that there is no way that I know to have the shows list by series instead of episode title.  Thus I have to literally click on every episode to find the shows I want to watch, since I don't know what the title of the particular episode I want to watch is.

Does anyone know how you can set up a "details" type view under the media folder in WHS 2011?  Thanks in advance.

New Install of WHS 2011 - Two Questions for the Forum

08 July 2011 - 03:55 PM

Finally upgraded the server and installed WHS 2011. I have two questions.

1. During initial install, I don't think I saw a screen to change the workgroup name of the server, so it is at "workgroup." Am I stuck with that workgroup name now forever?

2. I installed the connector software on two of my machines. It did not create the "shared folders" on the desktop of either one of them. Is there a way to manually create this?

Thanks a ton. I enjoy both the Homeserver Show and BYOB podcasts!

Help with Restore from WHS to Win7Pro 64bit

07 April 2011 - 08:56 PM

My wife's hard drive crashed so I bought a new Western Digital 640 gb Black WD6402AAEX.  

Motherboard is a gigabyte GA-H55M-S2H, latest bios (F7) loaded with 4gb of ram and a Core i3-540.  I made an iso restore cd from the ms website.  I booted to the cd, it loads the drivers, correctly identifies the realtek network card and the new hard drive.  

Where it gets stuck is that it cannot find the WHS.  I have tried loading drivers by mounting the drive of the pc that will be restored and copying the whs restore drivers,and by dowloading the drivers from gigabyte's website, both for windows xp 32 bit, and win7 32 and 64 bit.  

I am out of ideas, any help?
