Just a few basic suggestions from my experience with DVAClient: -I think it is best you be on the latest version of Roku OS (1.5.18) -When you edit the DVAClient.roku script to insert your ReplayTV IP names or addresses, make sure you remove the # at the beginning of ONE of the REPLAYLIST= lines. -I put the exact contents of Phil's ZIP file on a network share, edited DVAClient.roku and it worked for me. I am using it in the mode where it connects directly to my two Replay 5000 units. QUESTION FOR PHIL: - Can you have a DVArchive host and two Replay units on the REPLAYLIST? - Lip sync is not very good, even after pressing "ROTATE". I suspect this is a problem with the current version of CinemaSix. - KUDOS to you Phil, this is a great addition to the HD1K! >Hi Phil - > >Thanks for doing this. > >Unfortunately, I played with it for about 30 minutes - but I was unable to get it work.
