DLNA? Framechannel? Kodak Pulse 7-Inch Digital FrameDoes this frame have UPNP/DLNA capability? What about framechannel? Thanks

You've got it - no ethernet on board - wifi only. Why not get her a $40 wireless router, or give her your old one and upgrade yourself? The WiFi is what makes it great - my mom is a technophobe but loves seeing new photos from her family getting updated every few days, automagically...

Neither FrameChannel nor DLNA is offered on the Pulse frame at this time. I have one of these frames and having either of those features would have me buying more of them. With the latest firmware (June 2010) you can only receive photos on the frame via facebook, the kodak gallery, or by emailing the frame directly.

Can the Kodak Pulse be used without a wi-fi connection? My mother has an internet connection but doesn't have wi-fi. If there isn't a wi-fi connection, would a flash drive or card be the only way to upload photos to the frame making it no different from other frames?

Since the time of that post, I got another BD player and it supports DLNA. The problem is the same as I have with my PS3. There's no decent way to skip forward and backward.What I don't know is the cause. I don't expect a solution, and I know the problem is at the server end, but I don't know why the problem exists there.The solution to my problem was to build my own box for about $200. I now have something that's bigger than the WD, but it runs Windows 7 and gives all the streaming options I need, including using Media Center directly. It's not a solution for everybody, and the cost reflected using an HD and optical drive I already had. Since the time of that post, I got another BD player and it supports DLNA.

If the NAS (Network-attached-storage) is DLNA-compliant, it should be accessible by the Sony player. If it is NOT DLNA-compliant, it is still possible, but not as assured. Also note that some DLNA equipment is certified for only photos and music (cannot guarantee the bandwidth of videos).

Is this TV capable of "24p"? I'm not sure what that is, but it supposedly improves the picture quality, so, and Panasonic just introduced this kick-ass BD player, which I would sooo consider buying after I get a new TV, since my 3-year old LCD (Dynex) totally stopped working about a month ago...(I'm using my gramma's 14" DTV for now, would upgrade yesterday, but I'll be w/o the necessary cash probably for another 8+ months...). Thanks.

It's not a question of whether DLNA is or is not simplistic. It's a question of whether it works when people use this device, and specifically when people use it with the native capabilities of whatever is hosting or storing the media. Saying what's better sidesteps the issue. It would be better for me to ignore the WD and use a powerful desktop computer attached to my TV instead. Unless you factor in cost. In that case, it's better not to need to find any dedicated server program or anything else that's not included for free.

this is a terrible picture frame/ Kodak has terrible custhis is the worst possible frame you could purchase. \Kodak provides no customer service what soever. \I hope you can resolve this but don't expect anything from \Kodak. \I have emailed them repeatedly and continue to receive formatted answers that do not even to begin to touch on what I have spoken to them about!

I used to use DLNA, but now I ONLY use the network connectivity.If I had an external HD directly connected, it might be more helpful since I think the WDTV has some indexing features when using DLNA, but all my files are now on my NAS.

Hello Valobal, I am not sure if can do it through a DNLA server, I have mine configure over a normal LAN configuration and it works very good, plays MKV MP4, etc wiht the subs without any problem, hope this helps you and if you find a place where I can get a new one with good price let me know :) a need another for my bedroom :)

This may help. I had this camera hooked up to my swann dvr and cables. It worked fine, I just didn't like the picture.

I use my 3TB Seagate Central with a Plex Server. It supports DLNA. Tried Twonky before finding Plex.

What type of system do you have in terms of how many channels, or are they audio capable or not. I am assuming that you have a Revo system. I would also like to know if you are attempting to connect BNC cameras to your REVO system?

Only difference between A850 and A750 of screen thickness otherwise every thing is same. I'm having this TV since Nov 2008 and it worth every penny spent on this TV. I'm good fan of this TV and as per my experience about DLNA, I would recommend to buy BUFFALO LINKSTATION LIVE LS-CH1.0TL 1TB NAS driver which works best compare with Iomega Home Media N/w Drive. The only drawback of DLNA with Samsung is support FAT32 Filesystem as of now and have limited files supports, see below lists: Compatible files: DLNA-supported file types and extensions are listed below. Music - MP3 (.mp3) Photos - JPEG (.jpg, .jpeg) Video - MPEG1 (.mpg, .mpeg) MPEG2 (.mpg, .mpeg, .trp, .ts, .tp) DIVX (.mpg, .mpeg, .avi) MPEG4 AVC (.mpg, .mpeg) and you will be able to play the .avi files with the following codes Xvid, H.264 MP, MPEG4 SP, MPEG4 ASP and MJPEG. So for all other files you will have use any converting s/w. I hope these all information will be helpful to you people.

Thanks arrowhead, That's what I thought-from the few posts I could find -I already ordered a TRENDnet 10/100, 8 port switch, as I now need more ports to connect a new BD player by wire for updating its firmware. The 25 Mbps when streaming was mentioned in a few reviews of the switch. Thanks for confirming.

I am not familiar with that type of camera but you should be able to connect any BNC/RCA/Coaxial camera to this card without any issue. I currently use Sony 1/3" Varifocal Lense Dome Cameras. I have also connected other generic cameras without issue. As far as IP (network) cameras go, I'm not 100% sure, but you should be able to connect brands other than Geovision. These DVR cards are great. I have two of them, one at two different stores, and they have been flawless. The DVR Servers the cards are installed in are configured with: Intel Core i3 CPU Crucial 8gb DDR3 RAM Gigabyte Motherboard 4 Western Digital Black 2tb SATA Hard Drives nVidia Geforce 8400 1gb PCIe Video Card Antec One Hundred Case Antec 650w Power Supply Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 64bit OS and they work great. The software for these cards is fantastic. It is, by far, the best software I have used for DVR systems. These cards are more costly than other DVR cards but you get what you pay for. You can do 30fps for up to 16 cameras. The maximum resolution for each camera, if I'm remembering correctly, is 720x480 for NTSC. NOTE: In the manual and on the website, and this goes for every DVR I have every built and I'm not sure why, Geovision says that this card is only compatible with Intel CPUs, Intel chipset motherboards, and nVidia GPU video cards... no AMD or ATI for some reason... I have always been curious but have never had the time to test this in a live environment and I wouldn't risk it just to save a little bit of money. I highly recommend this DVR card.

Too bad the eStarling 7" resolution is only 480x270. My Timex Ironman watch has a better resolution than that.Also, the frame only seems to support .JPGs and the widescreen format doesn't seem to be 4x6.Why can't Philips make a frame that has wireless, or even wired, network support? I'd love to have a Flickr stream, but the DPFs with the good LCD panels don't have wireless, and the ones with wireless (eStarling, and others) have terrible LCDs.

I think you're correct and would stay with current firmware. I didn't realize they were coming out with a 10" frame. I'd be interested in more info on that. Is it posted anywhere? Thanks

I have no idea what a DLNA device is. We watch videos and music from Hulu, You Tube, Netflix etc. using our high speed wireless internet connection. Sorry I can't be more informative as I just got the TV a Christmas time and am still learning how to use it.
