• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

I stumbled across a neat bit of software that allows you to transfer video, audio, music, directly to any iOS kit from Windows or Mac without going through iPlayer.
It's called WaltR, not cheap at £30 odd but you can try it free for 24hrs.
Transfers pretty quickly too - just click and drag.

Well I found a couple of flaws with it.
The metadata it brings up for each subject is not always correct and there's no way of editing it.
Most of the videos I transferred were my own creations - one Titled "Duet" of two of my granddaughters playing the piano came up with the film called Duet with cast listing etc. On some other films it came up with the wrong version.
It worked fine on my phone and also when I transferred stuff to my wife's phone but when I went back to my phone it wouldn't transfer. But did when I then used my iPod. Failed again when I tried my phone again??
I was only using a trial version perhaps the full one works better?
Worth a try though as it's amazing how much you can transfer in 24hrs as long as you don't change the device.

I've been in touch with the software firm - they are based in the Marshall Islands.
Finally identified the problem - you have to close or quit the app before disconnecting. Then you can reconnect without any problems.
After 3 free trials my phone and iPad is now full of videos! 70Gbs worth [emoji4]
