Sonic Blue Replay TV 5000 Manuel D’Utilisation

Sending recording to other ReplayTVs requires a port to be forwarded through your router (or firewall) for incoming network con-

nections. If you have a firewall on your computer or network, it needs to be configured properly or ReplayTV will not be able to 

receive Channel Guide listings and software updates from the ReplayTV Service. If you do not know how to open ports on your 

firewall software, refer to the documentation that shipped with the software.
1

Verify that TCP ports 53 (DNS), 123 (NTP), 80 (HTTP) are open. Your firewall documentation should indicate whether or not 

those ports are blocked by default.

Verify that the IP address that ReplayTV uses is not blocked.

If you are sharing recordings with other ReplayTVs, you will need to open a port to receive shows. When you first go to the 

ReplayTV Internet Address Book, you are asked to open a port number on your router. This is the port that needs to be open 

on your firewall software. It is recommended that you use a high port number like 29000.

Press Menu on the remote control and choose Setup.

Choose Network and Input Settings from the Setup menu.

Choose Change Network.

Choose Change from Automated to Manual and enter the information.

The IP address you specify on ReplayTV must be in the same range as the IP addresses of other computers or devices on the same 

network, but not identical. For example, if the IP address of your computer is 192.168.0.1 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0, 

then the ReplayTV IP address may be 192.168.0.x, where x can be any number from 2 to 254. No other device on your network can 

use the same IP address as ReplayTV.

What you base the ReplayTV information on depends on the configuration of your network.
•

If ReplayTV is connected to a router, then you need to collect the network information from the router or a PC connected to the 

router. It does not matter if there is a hub between ReplayTV and the router.

•

If ReplayTV is connected to a Cable Modem or DSL Modem, then the network information you need is provided by your ISP. 

You will need to purchase a separate IP address for ReplayTV. 

•

If ReplayTV is connected directly to your PC or through a hub, then you need the network information from the network card.
