| Top Frequently Asked Questions |
| When will "XYZ feature" be added? |
A: DMX-3000 is a one-man effort, and not a full-time job. New features get added as time allows. |
|
| I�d love to try it out. Is there a demo version? |
A: Yes. Download DMX-3000 and try it out. The download version supports up to 24 DVDs. If you like what you see, you can register the product to get full functionality. |
|
| I don�t have MX-Editor. Can I still use DMX-3000? |
A: No. Currently, you�ll still need MX-Editor for MX-3000. |
|
| Is there a Macintosh version of DMX-3000 available? |
A: At this time there is no Macintosh version and no plans to create one. MX-Editor only runs in Windows, so DMX-3000 only runs in Windows. Although support can not be provided for this solution, many users have had success running DMX-3000 under VMWare Fusion. |
|
| What do I need to get started? |
A: You�ll need DVD Profiler 3.5, MX-Editor for MX-3000, and DMX-3000 2.0. |
|
| I�ve already got all my DVDs in DVD Profiler. Am I going to have to set everything up again? |
A: No. You�ll only need to add the Changer and Slot information for each DVD to your existing library. |
|
| How much is the upgrade from DMX-3000 1.x? |
A: Free. DMX-3000 owners get free upgrades for the life of DMX-3000. |
|
| My DVD library barely fit in my MX-3000 with DMX-3000 1.x. With all these new features in DMX-3000 2.0, with my library still fit? |
A: DMX-3000 uses some creative memory management. A typical collection in DMX-3000 2.0 uses slightly less memory than the same collection in DMX-3000 1.x. |
|
| I use more than one DVD changer. Can DMX-3000 handle more than one? |
A: Yes. DMX-3000 can handle as many DVD changers as you have memory for DVDs on you MX-3000. |
|
| Entering in DVDs is sort of tedious. Does DVD Profiler support any kind of bar code reader to speed things up? |
A:Yes. There�s a thread about this on the Invelos forum. Check out this link: Invelos Thread |
|
| My DVD changer does not have a serial port. Will DMX-3000 control it? |
A: Yes. DMX-3000 uses IR control (or whatever RF base station you use with your MX-3000.) |
|
| Does DMX-3000 support CD changers? |
A: Not at this time. |
|
| Does DMX-3000 support Blu-Ray changers? |
A: Not at this time, there are no Blu-Ray changers available that allow direct slot selection using even the factory supplied remote. |
|
| How many DVDs will DMX-3000 support? |
A: It depends on how much free memory your MX-3000 configuration has. DMX-3000 provides settings to let you tweak memory usage if necessary, increasing the number of discs DMX-3000 can display. Many users have over 1200 discs in their DMX DVD Menu. |
|
| How often can I add new DVDs? |
A: As often as you like. DMX-3000 also has an option to let you manage how many movies appear in your �Recent Purchases� menu. |
|
| Can I create my own genres? |
A: No. DMX-3000 supports the standard genres included in DVD Profiler 3.5 and DVD Profiler does not allow for user created genres. |
|
| How does DMX-3000 handle movies with more than one DVD? |
A: Multi-disc movies are displayed normally by cover art, then provide a second multi-disc page where you can select the individual disc you want. |
|
| Does DMX-3000 work with any other remotes? |
A: No. However, separate DMX programs for other products may become available in the future. |
|
| Can I sort movies on my remote? |
A: You can sort alphabetically, by genre or, in the case of new purchases, from most to least recently added. |
|
| I�m having trouble programming my Before and After macros. Can you help? |
A: Changers are finicky. Even a sequence that works on one changer might not work on the same model of changer in someone else�s house if the settings of the two changers are not identical. There has been a lot of discussion about this on Remote Central. Check out the main DMX-3000 thread to see if anyone else has tackled your changer. We�ve started trying to compile a list of working Import Header files here at tripleBsoftware. If we gather a large enough library, we may be able to make setting up your macros as easy as choosing your changer from a list. |
|
| Can DMX-3000 display a menu of covert art on the TV screen? |
A: No, the DMX DVD Menu appears on your MX-3000 screen. |
|
| When I try to update my RCC file with new movies, it doesn�t work. What�s going on? |
A: DMX-3000 always starts from your Base RCC file, not the currently loaded file that has the DMX DVD Menu added. When you choose the Base RCC file in DMX-3000 2.0, be sure to choose your original file, not the one that DMX-3000 created (which ends in �_DMX.rcc� or �_DMX�). |
