Yes, I know the quality of the image on the left is quite poor — I’m just so excited!
I received Ian’s Toshiba DMF102X frame today and immediatly set upon getting it working on FrameAlbum. I had made some changes earlier in the day to the feed format in the hopes of resolving the dreaded ‘File format is not supported’/’Cannot connect to service’ messages many of you with Toshiba frames have experienced.
I fired up Ian’s frame, entered in the static IP information along with the custom FrameAlbum DNS server and selected the ‘FrameChannel mode’. A few nerve wracking seconds later the green “FrameChannel have ceased operation” image — Yippie! This means that the frame was talking to FrameAlbum and the frame had understood it’s reply.
I then added Ian’s frame to my FrameAlbum account (using the frameID information contained in the green ‘ceased operation’ image) and added on of my Flickr channels to it.
I restarted the frame and… WooHoo!
If any of you are having trouble seeing your photos on a Toshiba frame let me know in the comments below and I’ll get it fixed.
Update:
It appears that frames with software version 2.01 are working fine; the ‘newer’ version 2.05, not so much. I’ve identified and repaired a potential issues; testing ensues.
Awesome! You are a hero! I was complaining about how useless the Toshiba frame I got my Mom for Christmas has become. Not only did the Toshiba implementation of Picasa never work right but Framechannel was always so slow to change pictures. Looking forward to setting this up next time I visit the folks!!!
@Justin: Happy to be of service. Please let me know if you have any issues with your Mom’s frame setup.
