I signed up for a twitter account a while ago, but 140 letters seemed odd and too small for me. I always had to limit words for ads, store posters or group notices but nothing as limiting as 140 letters. This is why i love blogging, it gives you the freedom to post as much as you like. I stopped using twitter for that 140 letters limit and i didn't get the name. Why the name twitter? i later realized its the sound birds make which makes it a cool name. And today i have 5 followers which is encouraging, so from now am going to be twitting. Updating our twitter feed with the latest info related to @home Entertainment. A lot of new features are coming now that we are safely on the new server with the ability to scale for any amount of traffic...
Our Twitter link is http://twitter.com/myslhometv
Let's do the twitter dance

Switching to new server
[UPDATE 03-29]We are now on the new server and running smoothly. Time to get back to work on new products, features and services. Our major projects were put on hold to finish the server migration. Now am glad to get back to work. Thanks for the patience and support, its very much appreciated.
[UPDATE 03-28] Finally doing the switch to the new server this morning, we have sorted out the prior issues we were having.
[UPDATE] Things didn't go as planned we are back on the old server i found out the new server required more testing so i switched back to the old one. I hope to do the final switch tomorrow. There shouldn't be any noticed difference on the TVs or other products. All changes are on the back-end.
We are currently switching our back-end software to the new server, and hope everything goes smoothly. The switch will happen within the next 4 hours, we expect a safe and happy landing... please stay tuned.

[Update] Server Issues
[UPDATE] We are moving our back-end software to a new server for more reliable service to manage the amount of traffic we currently have. This is the software that runs the Youtube Channels, the adult channel, radios and the myMedia Website.
Unfortunately some of the TVs that tried to play Youtube videos during the downtime will still give script errors when they are clicked. Resulting in no menu and this script error, llDialog: message too long, must be less than 512 characters.
To fix the TV and get it working again:
We found out that our server got overloaded today and went offline. This affected the youtube videos, our radio, website and script errors on some of the TVs.
[Update] We have the server back online right now but we are still testing it. Please bear with us as we work hard to resolve the issue. Sorry for the inconviences. We hope to solve this as soon as possible. I will keep posting as we make progress.

To fix the TV and get it working again:
simply paste any youtube url on chat and press enter. You can paste this url on chat
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pF20uyMTqqI
It will get the TV menu back and all the channels working again.Please note in some cases this fix might not work.
If the script error still occurs then the TV scripts will need to be reset. Unfortunately this will reset the saved videos on the TV memory but its the only option if the TV scripts crashed. It will get the TV working again.
You reset the TV scripts by
(a) Right-click on your TV Screen
(b) Select Edit from the Circular Menu
(c)Click on Tools from the SL main menu on top of your sl screen, then from the Tools Menu click on the menu option Reset scripts in selection. This will reset all the scripts in the TV.
If the menu still doesn't come up after this just IM us in-world. We will help you with it.
Sorry for the hassle. Thanks for your patience and support.
