$35 refund is pretty good. I get entire cartons of stuff that is wrong and I get "2% off your next order" offers. LOL.

Hi

Just for peoples information, and I tried posting this in the dvdfab forum, however it didn't get past the moderators.

The box looks identical to one being supplied by MDS just google "PNX84xx-dev_rev_2c.pdf"

There are 3 pads next to a 2x5 pin header to the right of the board. These are:-
1. Gnd
2. Rx (In) TTL
3. Tx (out) TTL

The unit gets to uboot then boots the following : -
Linux version 2.6.34 (root@localhost.localdomain) (gcc version 4.5.2 20101003 (Linaro) [release 4.5-2010.11-1] (Trident STB Cortex Glibc Toolchain) ) #13 SMP Wed Dec 19 19:15:07 HKT 2012

The uart only appears to be debug once Linux has booted and you never get prompted with a command prompt

During the uboot you can stop the boot at which point you are prompted with:-
Apollo#

There appears to be 11 MTD partitions:-
0x000000000000-0x000000400000 : "logo"

0x000000500000-0x000000d00000 : "kernel_bak"

0x000000e00000-0x000006800000 : "rootfs_bak"

0x000006900000-0x000007100000 : "kernel"

0x000007200000-0x00000a200000 : "rootfs"

0x00000a300000-0x00000ab00000 : "app1"

0x00000ac00000-0x00000be00000 : "app2"

0x00000bf00000-0x00000d900000 : "app3"

0x00000da00000-0x000010a00000 : "app4"

0x000010b00000-0x000016f00000 : "app5"

0x000016f00000-0x000020000000 : "app6"

I would have liked to get telnet access to this unit at which point it would have been more use than it is now.

Hi there,

i got my VidOn.me Set-Top Box a few weeks ago. I got it as a gift for the lifetime version of dvdfab. I tried everything to connect this thing using wifi with my network, but up to now with no success. Does anyone know if and how this can be done? Meanwhile i have a WIFI-USB-Adapter from Edimax and a WIFI-USB-Adapter from Netgear. I plugged them in (one at a time), configured VidOn.me to use wifi instead of LAN, but the list of devices is always empty.

Has anyone managed to connect the set-topbox of VidOn.me using WIFI with a network?

kind regards
Andi

Put glue on it, sprinkle glitter, and presto, colorful paper weight!

Welcome to the XBMC forums.

I am currently looking for a solution or how to solve this site: http://openocd.sourceforge.net
To access the system, we need a JTAG cable and parallel communication, or if access possible via RS232 serial communication.

The post you quoted refers to how to set up a serial connection.
