Debian Multimedia :: Minidlna Service Shuts Itself Down

Feb 24, 2015

I have minidlna installed and half the time I go to use it, the service has stopped and I have to manually restart it with "service minidlna restart". I haven't restarted the server to cause this. There is nothing in the log file in /var/log/minidlna.log

After watching a video, it stopped. If I don't look at it for a few days, it stops.

Debian Multimedia :: Minidlna Not Playing MP4 Videos To TV

Jan 17, 2015

I am trying to setup a media server running Debian 7.8 and the minidlna 1.0.24. My TV is a Toshiba 50L7300UC and can play music and show images via the DLNA. It will play .mkv videos too, but when I try to play an .mp4 video it says "Unsupported file". If I put the same .mp4 video onto a USB and plug that into the TV, the TV plays it no problem.

When testing streaming to my phone, everything works (music, pictures, MKV and MP4 videos).

How I can get the MP4 videos to stream to my TV?

Debian Multimedia :: Install - Minidlna Does Not Start

Jan 31, 2016

I am new to Debian (and Linux). I just finish to install minidlna to feed my TV with my Debian Jessie PC but I cannot make minidlna to start. I installed minidlna using synaptic. No error shown. I went to the config file to fill the parameters needed.

I started minidlna using the command line /etc/init.d/minidlna start and got the following each time :

XYZ@bureau:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/minidlna start
[sudo] password for XYZ:
[ ok ] Starting minidlna (via systemctl): minidlna.service.

XYZ@bureau:~$ cd /var/cache/minidlna
XYZ@bureau:/var/cache/minidlna$ sudo systemctl status minidlna -l

Ubuntu Multimedia :: MiniDLNA And The Invisible Directories ?

May 26, 2010

I've been using a headless ubuntu machine for a few months now to torrent stuff and serve it up to my PS3 using MiniDLNA.

Everything was working fine until this morning when i decided the list of stuff in ~/Movies/Torrents was too long. I opened up the directory on my Mac (shared over the network using avahi and netatalk so my Mac thinks it's another Mac) and made some folders for shows in there. I moved the files into them and turned on my PS3. It was a bloodbath, only one of the new folders is seen by the PS3. It still sees folders that were created by transmission.

I changed the permissions to 777 for everything (had to to move folders around) and I also gave the new folders to my transmission user and group lest that was the problem (it wasn't).

Below is a screenshot of $ls -l ~/Movies/Torrents I have marked the ones that show up on the PS3. Only 'Lost' was made today out of the ones it sees. [url]

It's Ubuntu 9.10.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: What Could Make Minidlna Stop Being Responsive?

Jul 26, 2011

I just reinstalled Ubuntu at least twice for this problem: Minidlna starts fine for a few minutes, I can see it on the network with my television, windows and even my phone. However, after a few minutes (say one hour), it stops being there. The process keeps running, and is kinda responsive to rescans and restarts. However it becomes unusable after a few minutes. The last reinstall was pretty basic: Installed Ubuntu 9.04, upgraded to 10.04 (servers), installed minidlna, wait and... bam! So there were no conflicts in all that, so what could make minidlna stop being responsive?

Debian :: Computer Shuts Down Unexpectedly?

Jun 10, 2010

Since when I installed Squeeze I'm having this problem. You know how disturbing it is. I don't know if this is related in any way, but when I play music or watch video and do other things at the same time it looks like this happens more.

Software :: MiniDLNA Plus VLC To XBox 360 Or DirecTV On-The-Fly

Apr 12, 2011

My end goal for this project is to display a live internet stream through my PC on my TV by way of some DLNA client. I am currently using MiniDLNA (set up and working) as my server and I have a DirecTV receiver and an XBox 360 as options for the client. So far, I can view static videos on the client (something that is in the proper video format for the client to read), but I am having issues getting a live stream to work. My end goal for all of this is to watch MLB on my TV without having to plug a PC into my TV.

For those not familiar, there is a python project (mlbviewer) that will find the stream for me through my MLB.com account and stream that to VLC. I can then use VLC to transcode that to something that the DLNA client can read. I'm very new to DLNA and streaming video, so I'm not entirely certain what I need to do here, but I've read that the answer for the XBox is an ASX file that points to the stream. Currently, I cannot see the ASX file on the XBox (or DTV receiver) though I can see the other video files in the folder - which I think may be a MiniDLNA problem.

I have tried uShare and MediaTomb, and so far I prefer MiniDLNA (if it works) for its light weight and command line configuration.

Debian Installation :: Notebook Monitor Shuts Of After Installing?

Mar 9, 2011

The machine I'm running is a Sony Vaio VPCCW290X notebookIntel Core i5 processorNvidia GeForce 310M video cardI am planning on making Debian my main OS but I am experimenting with installing it on a usb drive first. I am new to linux so this has been a learning experience so far. I finally got the grub installed correctly for the external hard drive to boot up into Debian. I installed the minimal network install so I should just be going to a console prompt. After booting it it goes for a short time and then the screen shuts off, not just black. I tried ctrl-alt-f1/f2 which didn't do anything. I am able to reboot by ctrl-alt-del though. If I try to boot into the second option it goes further before shutting off. Using a live cd it does the same thing unless I choose the fail-safe option. When I choose that it boots up correctly. If I hook up an external monitor it will switch over to it when the screen shuts off, so I know it's not the video card

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: No Last.fm Service In Amarok 2.4.3?

Aug 9, 2011

I run Amarok 2.4.3 from KDR 4.7. I noticed that Last.fm is not listed among the services.Nor is the usual "Like" icon displayed in the middle pane. And Amarok doesn't scrobble. I have liblastfm0 installed and I installed liblastfm (no "0") from KDR yesterday, but that didn't help. So these should all be from the same repo (can't check right now as package kit is doing updates). Any clue what I have to do to get the service back? I use openSUSE 11.4 and KDE 4.7 from the Release repo.

I am running Server 10. I have a requirement to perform an action before the MySQL service starts, and perform another action after MySQL service stops.

I found the init script for MySQL under /etc/init/mysql.conf. I added my thing to the pre-start script there and works fine.

I am having trouble finding the script that stops the server so I can modify.

Debian :: Backports Service Becoming Official?

Sep 7, 2010

The Debian Project is proud to announce that the backports service, previously available at [URL].. is now an official Debian service and will be available from backports.debian.org Backports are packages from the testing distribution recompiled for the current stable (or even oldstable) to provide users of the stable distribution with new versions of some packages, like the Linux kernel, the Iceweasel browser or the OpenOffice.org suite, without sacrificing the general stability of the system.

The archive currently has packages backported for the Lenny distribution (how many?), but the infrastructure to accept packages for the upcoming Squeeze release is already in place, to allow Debian Installer images to configure the backports repository by default without generating errors on user systems. The service for Squeeze will be enabled at a later date, after the release.

Because of some limitations in the Debian Bug Tracking System, any bugs relevant to backported packages still have to be reported to the debian-backports list, which will now also move on lists.debian.org.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Xorg Will Not Turn Off - Sudo Service GDM Stop

Mar 1, 2010

I'm trying to install Nvidia drivers 190.53 on my karmic with a Nvidia 9500GT. I've downloaded the file from the Nvidia website. I've done this before on previous installations and everything went fine, however, with karmic turning off the xserver is a bit of a trick.

/etc/init.d/gdm stop doesn't work
sudo service gdm stop doesn't work
sudo killall gdm doesn't work.

After I run sh ./NVIDIA-linux-x86-190.53-pkg1.run a notice pops up and tells me I'm running x and I need to exit out. I thought I did. I've looked at the instructions on the Nvidia website, but I don't remember it being that complicated before and am a little nervous about removing files I don't know what they do.

Debian :: Blueman Input Service Missing

Jul 16, 2015

I'm a recent convert from Linux Mint to Debian for use with an HTPC media center.

I've been using Kodi + Playstation BD Remote for some time successfully with Mint.

I'm having issues getting the remote to work under Debian.

Typically I've been able to pair with Blueman and connect to the Input Service, however, under Debian, There are no "Input Serivce" options in the menus of Blueman..?

I don't know if this is because I'm missing some package that enables this or because my remote is not recognized as an input device. I suspect it is the former, because a bluetooth keyboard I have doesn't expose the "Input Service" menu option either.

Debian :: Determine If An Service / App Is In Chrooted Jail

May 31, 2010

I am trying to find out, if an application is chrooted jail or not. I have tried to do as suggested here, but something is wrong I believe. [URL]

pidof apache2
24714 24404 24366 24365 24364 24363 24362 4923
ls -ld /proc/24714/root
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 May 31 19:05 /proc/24714/root -> /

So far so good. Now we try with postfix, ups, nothing to show ? pidof postfix Lets try with the postfix master process instead. pidof master 2623

ls -ld /proc/2623/root
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 May 31 19:07 /proc/2623/root -> /

It shows it as not being chrooted jail, which I do not understand, since I KNOW that postfix runs chrooted jail.

Debian Configuration :: Systemd Custom Service

On macbook air 6.2, i've installed a Debian jessie mate DE, dual boot using refind. I'm currently fine-tuning it. I've made a script following powertop advice:

Code: Select all[newb@debian /etc/systemd/system]$ cat mba_kb_sp.sh
#!/bin/sh
echo 'auto' > '/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-3.1/power/control';
echo 'auto' > '/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-3.2/power/control';
echo 'auto' > '/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-5/power/control';
exit 0

[Code] ....

All seems to work fine, however when i check the sys file it didn't change. But I can start manually the systemd service and, this time, it works.

Debian Configuration :: Jessie - Service Samba Restart

I've after latest jessie update a problem with service samba restart. If I use "service samba restart", there is a timeout (after long time) and error.

Output of "systemctl status samba.service":

Code:

Whats going wrong. "service samba restart" should bring no error message if the service is not running previously.
