The Pi is to weak for XBMC (solved) - Raspberry Pi Forums

-

hello,
, utterly frustrated raspberry pi,
after many hours-long sessions of tinkering , tweaking, ahve still found not suited task intended for, namely running xbmc. specifically, wanted connect nas headless, stream music (not video!) , control via android remote control android tablet.
well, frustrating. don't believe music collection large current standards. it's not small, doesn't exceed standard media player application should able handle ease.
anyway, takes xbmc-distros on pi several minutes bring list of titles shared nas.
hardware slow handle task in decent time (i excluded nas being culprit. saturates network 1,2ghz , 512mb ram).
cannot fathom how have been advertised being tool use media centre.
writing see if can tell me why should not sell 2 raspis (i never thought it'd require zen use them - anything) , keep trying.
(btw can't use them lowly task of print server, because printer drivers not come compiled arm , won't compile on pi either)

odd. use xbmc using dnla wireless stream video desktop pc , absolutely fine. tbh i'm surprised how fast is. contention hw slow incorrect, since others have not got problem. so, leads me think have setup issue somewhere.

so, how nas share data - dnla or samba? said dnla seems work fine, , think dom uses samba , works fine. have music in 1 folder on nas or in tree structure? how many titles? wired or wireless? version of xbmc using? use openelec, try reference. there's not enough information in post to real diagnosis though.

my company uses aladdin etoken pro authentication on vpn connections. etoken requires pki client application on client machine before os recognize it. app , token work fine on xp, use ubuntu on laptop. aladdin has offered linux version of client, rpm. convinced our internal guys rpms, , i've been trying work couple days. begin with, hp pavilion dv4-1435dx laptop running jaunty 64-bit. - started out converting .rpm .deb using alien: code: sudo alien -d pkiclient-5.00.28-0.x86_64.rpm - worked fine , got nice little .deb - next, ran .deb install client: code: sudo dpkg -i pkiclient_5.00.28-1_amd64.deb - , executed without errors/issues. pdf rpm said there should launcher @ applications > etoken > start etoken pki client, didn't exist. figured might because installed deb instead of rpm. bounced box, still wasn't there. no big deal... - install network manager can configure vpn connection use token: code: sudo aptit...

ATmega2560-Arduino Pin Mapping

hi community, in last days working on project using arduino mega 2560. on planning pin using found bugs in atmega2560-arduino pin mapping . if right there labels (such pwm) in 'mapped pin name' @ wrong row ( mixed pin numbers right one...) in attachment openoffice calc , pdf file corrected table. ( hope ;-) ) i post here tab separated table : code: [select] arduino mega 2560 pin mapping table atmega 2560 pin out arduino mega function nr name function function function mapped pin name function function datasheet 1 pg5 oc0b digital pin 04 pwm 2 pe0 rxd0 pcint8 digital pin 00 rx0 (usart0 receive pin, programming data input or pin change interrupt 8) 3 pe1 txd0 digital pin 01 tx0 (usart0 transmit pin or programming data output) 4 pe2 xck0 ain0 (usart0 external clock  input/output) 5 pe3 oc3a ain1 digital pin 05 pwm 6 pe4 ...

Crossfader Arduino Tutorial

-
hello i'm super newb please don't bash me much. i'm using led's , i've connected them correctly (finally) , wondering why program here ( http://www.arduino.cc/en/tutorial/colorcrossfader ) doesn't work? say's haven't declared crossfade. read directions on top , said crossfade needs used list order of colors. isn't declared in main part (void loop() )? or need declared before? nevermind void on bottom , needed before voidloop. lol anyways playing rgb led's wondering if has specific way of making them fade in , out different colors? (brightness , color mixing) code: [select] /* * code cross-fading 3 leds, red, green , blue (rgb) * create fades, need 2 things: *  1. describe colors want displayed *  2. list order want them fade in * * describing color: * color array of 3 percentages, 0-100, *  controlling red, green , blue leds * * red red led @ full, blue , green off *   int red = { 100, 0, 0 } * dim white 3 l...
