Active TV will not load on DSM-520
« on: December 29, 2007, 11:15:34 AM »

HI -

I can access my local media no problem.  When I try to connect to Active TV on DSM-520 it stops at "loading information from active tv pc..."

This is from the install.log
***** MediaMallSetup.exe 2.53.2876.28836 (C:\Program Files\MediaMall\MediaMallSetup.exe) 12/29/2007 10:57:17 *****

Any help would be appreciated.

There are some problems with Media Mall that D-Link is working on.  Try uninstalling Media Mall and just runnning with the latest version of the firmware - I think you need to have WMP installed as well, but don't know where I saw that.

Are you running anti-virus software on your PC running ActiveTV?

Could this be causing the problem?

If disabling does not resolve the issue with ActiveTV try enabling it and properly allowing the ActiveTV software in the McAfee software.

Are there any paticular port numbers that should be opened in McAfee?

OK I have enabled every .exe in the mediamall directory and the d-link directory and still get stuck at the loading information from active tv pc...

I can stream media from my pc no problem and have internet access.  I just cannot get active tv to load on the media player.  What else should I try?

Thanks for any help.

You might want to look at my post: http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=857.0

I had a permission problem also.

Please they the New ActiveTV software on the DSM-520 support website. It should resolve this issue without editing anything on your PC.
