I have had trouble getting my eblitz shuttle to work. I found a review on epinions in which a fellow consumer/ reviewer said that he had had the same problem and found that media jukebox offered support for it; once he got support from them, everything worked! That's what I want, too! But I can't find anything on here about eblitz shuttle, nor can I seem to find a way to contact the support people directly... The only thing I can find is this post/ forum. Any ideas from anyone out there? Please... THANKS!

Rob, new member.

Hi Rob,
Was it Media Jukebox or JRiver Media Center?

Try a search here for eblitz.

robbio · « **Reply #2 on:** July 10, 2004, 12:31:59 pm »

Thanks for replying! Yeah, it was media jukebox. Isn't that what this is? When I went to the media jukebox page, this was the uspport section for that... What is jriver? i'm so confused.......

JimH · « **Reply #3 on:** July 10, 2004, 01:31:35 pm »

Those are both our products (JRiver is the company name).

Try a search.

Rob,

There has been little interest expressed in eBlitz support so it has not been included since Media Jukebox version 8. Try connecting the eBlitz with WMDM support enabled in MC version 10 (under Tools->Options->Devices 'Enable WMDM support') and see if MC recognizes the eBlitz. If it does, you are all set. If it does not please let me know and I will see what we can do.

Thanks,

Steve

JimH · « **Reply #6 on:** July 12, 2004, 06:33:38 pm »

Windows Media Device Manager

It's an option for the handheld inside MC.

do you mean windows media player? i thought this was media jukebox? i'm so confused...... i appreciate your help, though. maybe we can get this straightened out soon.

robbio · « **Reply #8 on:** July 12, 2004, 06:38:07 pm »

i think i was told once that windows media player does not work with eblitz shuttle.....

JimH · « **Reply #9 on:** July 12, 2004, 06:42:59 pm »

WMDM is a protocol for dealing with devices. Media Center uses it. Try a search at google to learn more.

robbio · « **Reply #10 on:** July 12, 2004, 06:46:03 pm »

okay i will, but what program do i use with it, yours or windows media player? i mean, i doubt that what i tead on google will make sense to me without some more context/ instructio from you...

robbio · « **Reply #11 on:** July 12, 2004, 07:04:51 pm »

well, i just did a google search for it, but all i could find there are things about security problems with/ patches for it... and a couple postings, like the one on this forum, that are only helpful if the reader already knows a lot of suff about it... how do i utilize this wmdm thing that you're talking about? i have windows media player...

please help... need to do the memory expansion on my eblitz. i have a mmcard in there, but i can't make the memory expansion download that i got from magix work or do anything at all.. the eblitz shuttle player i have works, but only holds about 3 songs... i was told that you guys offer support. if i have to get your player in order to make my eblitz shuttle work, okay. can i try a trial download to see if it works? Otheriwse, how do i utilize this wmdm thing that you're talking about?

Are you using Media Center 10?

Download here if not:

robbio · « **Reply #13 on:** July 12, 2004, 10:39:18 pm »

kay. Will do. This might be a dunb question, but what's Media Center 10? How much is it?

robbio · « **Reply #14 on:** July 12, 2004, 10:41:23 pm »

also, i still don't understand how i would use wmdm.

is that some plugin i need for windows media player
or does windows media player already have it
or is it purely something used by the media center program which i am going to download per your instructions?

SteveG · « **Reply #15 on:** July 13, 2004, 09:00:43 am »

robbio,

Media Center 10 is the product of ours that you should use if you want to test connecting to your eBlitz with WMDM. It is available here......

http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?board=3;action=display;threadid=22442

WMDM support is built into MC 10. You enable it by going to Tools->Options->Devices and clicking the checkbox to 'Enable WMDM support'.

Well, I downloaded it and tried what you said but it didn't recognize the player. Then I went into help and followed the instructions on how to download device plug-ins; it linked me to a web page where i could search for my player, but my device was not listed on your site, either. i know that you have what i need because i read that guy's post that said his player worked great now, ever since he downloaded your system... But I can't figure out how to get that for myself. Can you help?

SteveG · « **Reply #17 on:** July 13, 2004, 01:26:00 pm »

robbio,

If eBlitz does not work with WMDM enabled, we will have to update our plugin to be compatible with MC 10. This can be done, but not immediately. Which post are you referring to in regards to the guy with the eBlitz which is working great?

Steve

robbio · « **Reply #18 on:** July 13, 2004, 01:34:44 pm »

The post to which I'm referring is the one that led me to your website. It was on epinions.com.

How long do you think it will be before the plug-in update take?

SteveG · « **Reply #19 on:** July 13, 2004, 02:20:25 pm »

I am not sure, there are other projects to be completed before this one.

Steve

robbio · « **Reply #20 on:** July 13, 2004, 04:17:40 pm »

Well, couldn't I just download the older version that supports my player with the older plugin?

How will I know whne the upgrade was finished? I hope it isn't too long. I am just out of money and have waited a verry long time to get this working... I'd hate to not know when it's ready...

SteveG · « **Reply #21 on:** July 14, 2004, 09:14:35 am »

Media Jukebox 8 (the last version to support eBlitz) is still available, but I do not think the plugins are. If you download MJ 8 and want the plugin I can send you something that might work if you email me at steve @ jriver.com

robbio · « **Reply #22 on:** July 14, 2004, 02:26:58 pm »

THANKS! Can I download version 8 with version 10 already on my computer? Can I get a free trial version of that one, too? What's the link?

SteveG · « **Reply #23 on:** July 14, 2004, 03:44:30 pm »

The link to MJ 8 is...

I would uninstall MC 10 before getting 8. Yes you can get a free trialware as far as I know.
