Popcorn hour boot page
Hello guys,
I've had a popcorn hour for a few months now and have set pretty much everything up to my liking, however every time I reboot my popcorn hour it automatically loads my network share page. This is annoying for my because almost all of my media is located on my hard drive in the popcorn hour including my YAMJ. I am wondering if there is a way to change the default load screen of my popcorn hour when it turns on to my hard drive instead of my network share.
Thanks!

The Popcorn Hour will autoload the share where the last accessed file was located. If you make sure you start a movie from your internal hard drive before shutting down that should take care of it I think.

Media tank:A-100 & C-200
TV:Panasonic TH-50PY800MT (HDMI)
Audio:Logitech Z-5500 (Coaxial)

My model is the A-110 and even when the last file i played is from the hard drive it still boots to the network share page.

OK. Telnet to the PCH and enter the following command at the prompt:

pflash get udn

Save the output in notepad, just so you have it in case you mess up.

Then enter the command:

pflash set udn http://localhost.drives:8883/HARD_DISK/?home=0

Then reboot your PCH. It should default to the hard drive. If you mess up, just run the command:

pflash set udn "the output from the "pflash get udn" command that you saved" (no quotes)

You could also use mono.wrapper which can be found in the Community Software Installer.

It lets you choose which drive / share you want your PCH to boot to.

I had the same issue with my A110 booting to my music share, but it now boots to the internal hard drive.
