subsonic stops
My subsonic stops working every morning now after the new update =( I had the same problem before but there was a patch that made it work but now it stops every morning even when i dont restart the n...
Automatic Update Notifications haven't worked on the x86 FW for me since at least 4.2.18 in either IE or FF.
I think it's a known issue, as this has been mentioned several times in the forums.
EDIT: Also, even when it did "work" some add-ons would download but then fail to install automatically, still requiring a manual update. There's nothing less "official" about downloading it manually than doing it internally. The add-ons (for the most part) are still coming from the same place, your just applying it manually, rather than letting the NAS do it.
This obviously doesn't work for WhoCares' add-ons as they need to be purchased seperately from his site, but you get the point. I keep backup versions of every version of every add-on I use / install, so that in the event of a Factory Reset being required I can re-apply them en-masse. Another thing I saw, was the NAS was a lot slower downloading and applying add-ons automatically than me doing it myself. It was a nice addition but not essential, and obviously a bit tempremental. I've not seen anything to suggest the functionality was removed, but that doesn't mean it was or wasn't. I just haven't seen a post declaring the fact.
