Ubuntu Multimedia :: Ffmpeg Crashes Upnp Media Server?

Apr 19, 2010

i run ubuntu 9.10. i have updated all installed packages. i run a 32bit 3.6 ghz intel p4 dual core with three monitors running on two video cards. all this works correctly. i am able to play video in video player and audacious2 on any monitor.

i'm trying to run a upnp media server for my house. myself and both my tenants have playstation 3s, and i would like to host music, music videos, original content, and the backup copies of legally purchased dvds over the network. i recently converted from windows xp, and all of my media files were created by vlc on windows xp, ripped with winamp, edited and rendered with sony vegas, or downloaded from videos. i have tried both mediatomb (from the repository) and fuppes (from subversion) and had the same result with both.

basically, whenever the media center tries to populate the database and search the files, ffmpeg returns an error that crashes the media center. i do not know enough to implement better error handling in the source. both media servers, when running in the terminal, eventually return the same error message when scanning my sepearate hard drive for media. (~100gb of mp3, avi, mpeg, and mp4 files)

error code: /build/buildd/ffmpeg-0.5+svn20090706/libavformat/mov.c:1456: mov_read_trak: assertion `st->duration % sc->time_rate == 0' failed.

the process then ends.the weird thing is that this does not happen when i disable mp4 files in mediatomb (although i have not figured out how to replicate this feature in fuppes) so i have reason to believe that something in the metadata for mp4 files is throwing ffmpeg off. even if the metadata is bad in the mp4 file, it shouldn't cause a crash.

i tried to compile mediatomb without ffmpeg support, but the ./configure script returned errors whenever i tried to append an option to the configure command. i then reinstalled all the ffmpeg packages in the symantec package manager and still no luck.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Setup 10.4 Server As An UPnP Media Renderer?

Jul 27, 2010

I have been trying to find something that does this for some time now and discussions on IRC didn't turn up anything usefull - thats why this post for a prolonged discussion I have Ubuntu Server 10.4 installed (no X) and am trying to use it as an upnp media renderer. I would like to be able to playback their music on the servers soundcard from various devices. Thus it would be nice to have the ubuntu server expose an upnp media-renderer which one can use as an output device.

Is there a suggestion on which software to use? What I already have working is an upnp media-server (mediatomb) with ampache, but this isn't really what I'd like since I don't have as much disk-space on the server as I have on the various computers.

General :: Application To Support Writing To /dev/stdout Or /dev/fd1 Or Is That Handled Transparently By The OS?

Mar 26, 2011

I tried this command to print the buffer of an existing screen session to stdout but I don't know why it doesn't print anything.

screen -x lftp -X hardcopy /dev/fd/1
screen -x lftp -X hardcopy /dev/stdout

It works if I use a regular file instead, so why doesn't it print to stdout when I use /dev/fd/1? I do this with other applications don't have an option to write to stdout and it works, so what does GNU/Screen do that makes it not work?

General :: UPnP - Something Blocking Data Stream

I have a strange UPnP problem. I'm running myth tv and want to stream data to other things. How to troubleshoot UPnP because I have a feeling something somewhere is blocking it. I've tried doing a tcpdump eth0 host <mac of requesting agent> and not seen anything but ARP requests when I send it, but not when I ask it, just as normal traffic.

Ubuntu Installation :: Netbook Remix On Old Laptop With No Ext Media Boot Support?

Apr 22, 2010

do you have any suggestions how I can install Ubuntu netbook edition on an old Laptop (Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook 2131) currently running Windows 2000 with all servicepacks (if I recall correctly it is SP5) without boot-support for USB-Stick/Media, CD-ROM, PXE/netboot; booting is only supported from builtin harddisk and from floppy-disk drive, which is definitely broken. (with working floppy disk drive all would be fine). I also installed WUBI, but the harddisk is only 4 GB, so I had to use the USB-Stick as the Ubuntu install partition and this is not supported by the Laptop as it cannot boot from it.

Has anybody an idea, is it viable to online-resize an NTFS-partition to create a small linux-partition for bootstrapping the install?? I do not want to, it's still useful, so when crashing the NTFS-filesystem is likely I prefer not to take this route and leave the laptop with Win2k installed.

Software :: Customer Support Portal Application?

May 13, 2010

Some good open source software for these requirements:

1. Support center
customers can submit issues(or tickets) to our support staff and support staff can process these issues on the web or via email.

2. Knowledge base
Multi languages support are required, and admin also can apply the access privilege to each account/group.

3. Document or File download (FTP?)
customers can download the software hotfix , patch, Presentation file or even upload their log files. Admin can control the access privilege easily.

Is there any single open source software can meet these requirement at the same time?

General :: Application Called Impact - Paths In Java Application ?

Apr 14, 2010

So, I have this application called Impact, it is an explicit time integration Finite Elements code written in Java...

[url]

I untar the pack, and launch the application calling a script, from within the untarred folder,

Code:

This launches a gui which allows me to setup a case, which needs some setup file, tipically some *.in and a mesh file, tipically some *.msh.

Other mode of executuion consists of calling the setup file as argument to Impact.sh script ( CLI execution mode, for g33k5 )

My problem is : I have packed the whole stuff into a Slackware .tgz, that places it in /usr/local/Impact, and placed a calling script in /usr/local/bin,

Code:

Code:

I decided to hack the ImpactGUI_OGL_linux_amd64.sh script from

Code:

Code:

no avail,

Code:

even after adding /usr/local/Impact/bin to PATH... won't go...

I can run this thing from within its directory... but I do not like messing within the directories of my applications, this is why I sent this to /usr/local, and placed a calling script in /usr/local/bin...

General :: Install Windows 7 On Media Partition \ Keep Media Partition Completely Separate From Any OS?

Apr 24, 2010

I just bought a new hard drive so that I could convert my XP-only machine into an XP-Ubuntu-Windows 7 triple boot machine.Since the drive is absurdly huge (1 TB) I wouldn't mind throwing ReactOS into the mixtoo.I just found out that master boot records are limited to 4 entries, meaning 4 primary partitions. I had Windows XP set up on my old drive as a boot partition, a program files partition and a media partition. Since I really didn't want to install XP from scratch, I cloned this setup on my new drive.

This leaves me one MBR partition entry for installing Windows 7, Ubuntu and ReactOS. I'd like to avoid having to install XP from scratch like the plague, partly because it's supposed to be a safety net in case things go wrong with my other OS's and because I've invested a lot of time getting it set up exactly the way I like it.Here are the options I've considered and why I don't like them:Install Windows 7 on my media partition. This would work, but I prefer to keep my media partition completely separate from any OS, so that I can reformat an OS partition without affecting my media partition at all.

Use wubi or something to install Ubuntu in the same partition as something else. Again, this is brittle.Move all my media to a logical drive on an extended partition. Create another logical drive on this extended partition for Ubuntu. The problem here is that extended partitions are rather brittle--if you nuke one, it renders the rest useless.Just put the old drive back in my computer and run XP off it. Use the new one for the other OS's. The problem here is that the old drive is slower and uses extra power, generates extra heat, etc.

Fedora Networking :: Can't Get UPnP To Work In 10

Feb 16, 2009

I am a complete newbie to linux and Fedora, having previously used Windows/Vista. I have a Netgear router which is configured to allow upnp, and i use deluge as my bittorrent client, though would use either transmission or deluge. I used deluge on windows and upnp worked fine, but now i am usisng fedora with the same settings it doesnt work.

In Deluge (or Transmission) UPnP is ticked and i have limited port range to on port say 57000. In Router config UPnP is ticked. In the Fedora firewall i have gone in and set it up to allow the specified port, say 57000 in other ports.

I've been trying without success for sometime now to find a linux upnp renderer. I've tried to install gmediarender but it will not install on my laptop. I have tried XBMC but was hoping for something a bit lighter (like geexbox). Something that comes in a live cd form would be best.

Ubuntu :: How To Use PulseAudio Via DLNA / UPNP Client

Feb 21, 2010

I've noticed in my karmic Koala pulseaudio has many options to make my sound discoverable via upnp/dlna server. I've got a ps3 and a Pinnacle Soundbridge, suitable for this protocol and working fine with mt-daapd or ushare. But I would like to use mplayer and making the sound available to my devices. I've activated the options in Pulseaudio (paprefs) but can't play music in my client device and I can't see the server in the lan.

This is my config:
sound Preferences
> output > DLNA/upnp Streaming (stereo)
paprefs

-Tab Network access
click on "make discoverable Pulseaudio network sound devices available locally" & same for "[...] Apple Airtunes"
-Tab Network server
All options clicked on
-Tab Multicast RTP
Enabled "receiver", enabled "sender" and selected "send audio from local speakers"
-Tab simultaneous output
Not enabled

Padevchooser
- Default server: my pc
- Default sink: DLNA/upnp Streaming
- Default source: internal analog Stereo
Can't see any upnp server.

Ubuntu :: No UPnP Message After MySQL Update?

Jul 26, 2010

I just ran some system updates today. MySQL was among them. after rebooting. I got a message I haven't seen since I was first installing several months ago. I couldn't connect to the database.

At first, I freaked out because I didn't know what to do. I tried checking my passwords, but I still don't understand all the configuration for MySQL. I tried reconfiguring the myth packages, but couldn't get through the setup. It would just bounce me out after a few attempts because of incorrect password sets.

I finally figured out, from the logs, that MySQL hadn't logged anything since it's 'successful shutdown' after the updates. It hadn't even tried to come on. I started it manually and everything seems to be fine, but how do I get it to start at startup again?

Ubuntu :: Identifying UPNP Connections To Sever?

Jul 13, 2011

I have a setup with a mythtv backend that streams media via the built in upnp to two xbox 360s. This works perfect at the moment. However I need a command/script that can identify if either of the two xbox's are connected via upnp. I need this so that I can have the system auto shutdown if no one is connected using the existing mythtv sleep wake features. (Basically if a script returns 1 then dont shutdown if returns 0 then shutdown.)

Code:
if upnp is connected then
dont shutdown
else
shutdown
fi
Thanks

Server :: Whats The Best 64bit UPnP And NAS Distro

Jun 2, 2011

I've got a solid PC w/Xeon dual core, 4gb RAM, and (2) 1Tb Sata HDs - looking to replace a WinXP pc that currently is running PlayOn (for media to the BD player on the TVs) and sharing folders/drives to all the PCs (WinXP, Win7, OSX, and Ubuntu.

I have tried a few distros to get media shared to the BD players, and even a Win7 - but the BD players can't seem to play any of the video files on the newer 'servers' - and only the Win7 even appears to the Sony TV in the living room (even though it can only browse the folders with video files). Another problem with the Win7 being tested for acting as a server - is the Macs cant seem to access the shares (get Access Denied errors).

Wondering if there is any good distro that is mainly setup for sharing files and storage space to all my devices. Thinking of trying FreeNAS, and seeing if I could add the UPnP/DNLA server packages to it?

Software :: Utility To Configure UPnP In A Router?

Feb 15, 2010

I have a program called "PortForward" to do the job in Windows... But I've been searching for the better part of 2 hours trying to find one for Linux.

I can use the router's admin interface, but it limits the number of forwards you can add. And I would like to be able to add more simply because the applications I need to forward aren't already included.

Fedora Networking :: Kernel 2.6.34 Breaks UPnP DLNA

I'm not sure what changed but when I recently upgraded via yum to Kernel 2.6.34 none of my uPnP or DLNA apps show up on my tvs (Sony TV and PS3). Booting an older version, i.e. 2.6.33 solves the problem with no other changes. I use MediaTomb, MythTV uPNP server and Serviio. All work fine except with the newest kernel.

OpenSUSE Network :: UPnP Blocked By SuSE Firewall?

Jan 15, 2011

I setup Mediatomb on another box in my house to connect to with XBMC. XBMC will only connect though if the firewall is off on the local machine. I have both TCP and UCP ports 1900 and 50500 (the port for Mediatomb) enabled on my laptop (local) and the correct ports are open on the remote machine (my wife's vista laptop will connect through XBMC). I can connect to Mediatomb through it's web interface (to set visible folders/files) but not through UPnP (at least not through XBMC)

Networking :: UPnP Not Working After Traffic Forwarding Through Server

Dec 30, 2010

I have just recently switched my setup to have my server be in the middle of traffic and act as my new router while making my other routers just switches. However, after doing this I can no longer access my UPnP devices. They used to show up in my router but I am assuming either there is an issue with my iptables rules or that some how having my server run the dhcp and dns routing is messing with UPnP.

Ubuntu Networking :: UPnP / Port Forwarding - XMBC And UTorrent

Sep 15, 2010

I've recently moved my media center pc from windows 7 to Ubuntu, now while on windows 7. I used the machine with XBMC and utorrent with upnp enabled on my router (Netgear WNR2000 v1) and also in the utorrent client for the port mapping. I was also able to connect to the machine from work via remote desktop (via Windows RDP, real/ultra vnc) using either a windows machine or via ubuntu that I have installed on a laptop (externally to my network). Utorrent also was able to talk to my router and ask for the ports it needed via uPnp or even by setting the port forwarding manually.

Since upgrading ( ) to Ubuntu from windows 7 on my mediacenter pc I've not been able to connect via RDP / VNC using port forwarding from the outside world although I added ports 5900 and (i beleive) 3389 to the port forwarding section in my router and pointing it to the static ip on my mediacenter. I'm also not able to get the ports to forward for deluge / vuze at all, if i manaually set port forwarding up then nothing happens and deluge says it has no incoming connections and it also doesn't talk to my router to ask for ports via upnp.

The same also holds true for the linux version of sopcast which will not connect to any streams. I can also replicate the same issue on a laptop that I use with ubuntu installed. If I watch my upnp page on my router config then I can see that my windows clients (Brother & Mom's macine) both talk to the router and ask it for ports so I assume that the router is working as it should be but obviously the fault happens when my ubuntu )10.04.1) clients ask for any kind of ports. By default is there any kind of firewall installed on ubuntu or anything I need to do to allow it to ask for upnp connections?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Rhythmbox - M4a Tracks Unplayable From Upnp Server ?

Apr 1, 2011

Rhythmbox plays local m4a files no problem. I have a few upnp servers running on other machines around the house, mediatomb, tvmobili, vuze, mythtv. Rhythmbox is setup with the coherence plugin and happily plays mp3 from these servers but it cannot 'see' any m4a files via upnp, even though it can play the same files if i copy them to the machine that is running rhythmbox.
