Ubuntu Multimedia :: Mediatomb And Subtitles / Getting Response "Fail" And Mediatomb Will Not Start?
Jan 20, 2010i've looked at serveral post all over the net but still can't get subtitles (.str files) to bind with the stream on mediatomb.
Mediatomb works fine with out the subtitle transcoding profile, but when added and mediatomb is restarted using sudo /etc/init.d/mediatomb restart I get the response "Fail" and Mediatomb will not start. If I change <transcoding enabled="yes"> to "no" then mediatomb works fine
Below is my config.xml

Ubuntu Networking :: Says Wireless Is Connected But Cannot Find Server
Mar 1, 2011Just installed ubuntu 10.04 on my Dell inspiron 1525 laptop. Everything got installed right, and I elected to select the sta driver rather than the B43 driver. After restarting, the b43 option disappeared. The wireless said it connected, but when i went to firefox it wouldn't load and said server not found. My wireless card is a bcm4312. Any ideas as to why this is not working?
View 7 Replies View RelatedHardware :: Ubuntu Server 8.04.4 In A VM - Networking / Something About Not Being Able To Find Pcnet32?
Jul 20, 2010I'll be as detailed as possible about how I got to this point so that anyone who wants to can follow along at home.
I've got an ESXi 3.5u3 Server on which I've built a Virtual Machine and installed Ubuntu Server 8.04.4.
During the installation it was unable to detect the virtual NIC so I chose "Do Not Setup Networking" thinking it would be easy to just configure the NIC later after the install of VMWare Tools.
Once installed, I did the following to get VMWare Tools installed:
# cd /mnt
# sudo mkdir cdrom
# sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
(The CD in the virtual drive was the Ubuntu Install CD)
# sudo apt-cdrom add
# sudo apt-get install linux-kernel-headers
# sudo apt-get install build-essential
# sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.24-26-server
(At this point I told ESXi to "Install VMWare Tools" which puts a CD in the virtual CD-Rom containing the VMTools)
# sudo umount /dev/cdrom
# sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
# cd /tmp
# sudo tar zxf /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-3.5.0-123629.tar.gz
# cd vmware-tools-distrib
# sudo ./vmware-install.pl
At this point I accepted all the default values by pressing enter at each question. I didn't get any errors, and got a message saying something along the lines of "installed for this kernel perfectly". It also told me that to get networking going I should do the following, which I did:
# sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop
# sudo rmmod pcnet32
# sudo rmmod vmxnet
# sudo depmod -a
# sudo modprobe vmxnet
# sudo /etc/init.d/networking start
The first time I did that it said something about not being able to find pcnet32. The second time it didn't complain.
At this point I was hoping I'd have network, but when I run ifconfig it just shows the loopback adapter and nothing else.
So I tried
# sudo ifup eth0
which says "Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0".
I found something that said I should edit /etc/network/interfaces , so I did, and I added the following lines
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
saved the file and tried again:
#sudo ifup eth0
at which point it just sits there looking for the DHCP server (which we do have running) and never finds it.
I'm stuck. I *think* the drivers are in there somewhere since the VMWare Tools install seemed to work, I just don't know how to tell it to take those drivers, attach them to eth0, and start the damn thing!

Jun 30, 2010I've got three network devices on a laptop:
1. Built-in ethernet LAN
2. Built-in ethernet WLAN
3. PCMCIA ethernet LAN
I installed Ubuntu Server on this computer without the last one inserted.I inserted the last one today, and it lights up when i put in the cable. To be sure if Ubuntu has found it, I tested with the install CD and could see that it found all three at the first part of the installation where I have to chose a primary device.I can't get my WLAN card working, neither do I get my PCMCIA LAN card working. The third card, this PCMCIA card, has worked on Ubuntu Desktop using another laptop. And as said, the setup finds all three.

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Mediatomb Startup Fail?
May 4, 2010Question 1: whenever I boot the Linux machine I recently put together I see "ok" on all the startup items except Mediatomb. It always reads: "Starting upnp media server mediatomb [fail]."So I run it myself via sudo /etc/init.d/mediatomb startIn the mediatomb default file NO_START is set to "no," hence why it tries. But why does it fail? The guide I followed to install it intended for it to run at startup, but it just fails.Question 2: When I manually start mediatomb, and I later access it on another machine via the browser, it's all good. But on the monitor of the linux machine the command line goes bye-bye. It's just a cursor, and commands don't execute. Is there a keyboard combo like ctrl+alt+f-something that brings it back?

View 9 Replies View RelatedNetworking :: Windows Cannot Find IP Address Of Samba Server
Jan 26, 2011We are running samba on a Fedora release 8 (werewolf). The samba server is located on a dmz subnet off of my Cisco ASA 5510 firewall. From my inside network I have no problems connecting to the samba shares. However when someone uses a VPN connection they cannot connect to the samba share. VPN users are assigned an address from a pool which has no problems getting to the dmz based samba server. All ports required are open on both firewalls (Samba server and PC with VPN connection.) I consistently get an error saying Windows cannot find the ip address of the samba server. I have looked at the samba logs in varlogssamba and found a complete list of connection attempts listed by ip address. These addresses match the pool addresses that are being assigned by the firewall when someone tries to connect using the vpn.
Each entry has this:
lib/access.c:check_access(327)
connection denied from (ip address that is assigned by firewall)
smdb/process.crocess_smb(1062)
connection denied from (ip address that is assigned by firewall)
I checked the smb.conf to make sure the subnet the pool addreses is listed in the global section. It is.

Feb 9, 2010i have a Ubuntu 8.04 Server, with Media Tomb installed for streaming to the PS3. Works fine, its just a little buggy and you cant really customize it. For instance the web interface looks feels and works like it was made 10 years ago, and it dousn't give any feedback of directroys being scanned, so you have no idea what's being scanned and what's isn't!. Is there another WEB gui for managing MediaTomb? or is there another way to steam to the PS3? i have Webmin installed if theres set-up methods through that.

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Multimedia :: MediaTomb Can See Folders But Not Files?
Mar 14, 2010I have been using media tomb for a long time now to stream HD movies to the PS3 , its worked perfectly....until now . I use MKV2VOB so the PS3 can play the video and so mediatomb has no transcoding to do. But now when i add the video to the media tomb database the PS3 finds the server, can search through all the folders but when i arrive at the place where the movie should be it says there are no videos. I have been looking about and trying to see what the problem could be. I have checked that <protocolInfo extend="yes"/> is added to the server config file and thats about all i can find on the problem. The thing i don't understand is that i have changed nothing, and that the server must be running as i can search the folders etc.
I am running Ubuntu 9.10 and mediatomb v0.12
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Mediatomb Segmentation Fault On Import?
Jan 25, 2011I have run into this problem that really bugs me now.
I have installed mediatomb on my Ubuntu box, and it has been working fine for a while now.
This morning I installed 'Gnome subtitles', and had to wrestle a bit with is to make i work (gstreamer-stuff).
Now all of a sudden, my good old mediatomb has begun to seg-fault on importing new videos.
I have tried the following:
run ffmpeg -i -> no errors
run ffmpegthumbnail -> no errors
disable all transcoding in config.xml -> no fun
disable thumbnails in config.xml -> no fun
switch to mysql DB - tables are created all right, but still -> no fun

Ubuntu Installation :: Preventing The Mediatomb Upgrades (sidegrades)
Mar 31, 2011I have taken much time and effort to get Mediatomb working on my new machine running Maverick Server, with GUI. Those of you who run Mediatomb know that it's pretty convoluted to get everything "just right".I have located the three Mediatomb packages in Synaptec and marked them as "lock version" in the hope that they will not be up(side)graded to a slightly different version of Mediatomb, which does not have Javascript enabled however, update manager still insists on trying to make the change to the other version .
View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Servers :: Ushare Or Mediatomb Running As A Service?
May 19, 2011all the tutorials i found for ushare and mediatomb shows it installed on desktop and not server. it also requires an account to be logged in. once logged it, you have to run a command to start it up. some questions.
1) is there a way to run either one w/o having to log into an account? so if say i restarted the server, it'll run the programs w/o me having to log in.
2) i would like to specify a directory to share music and movies. is one better than the other? clients that i plan to use are songbird, itunes (maybe), and vlc - maybe xbox 360 and ps3. other client suggestions?
3) other dlna server suggestions? this will be running on ubuntu 10 or 11 desktop or server. but the main thing i'm looking for is what i mentioned in #1.
Fedora Networking :: Ethernet Connection Stopped Working - Cannot Find Server
Jul 23, 2009After using fedora 11 for a month or two now the ethernet gave out on me tonight. However if I switch to my ubuntu or windows XP install it runs fine. I made no recent changes to network connections, and no installed programs that should effect it.
kernel version: 2.6.29.6-213.fc11
default connection: eth0(and only connection)
ifcfg-eth0:
# Networking Interface
DEVICE=eth0

I have tried, restarting, older kernel, restarting services, and clearing the DNS Cache. The specific error I get is that "Firefox can't find the server", and most other applications return similar. I can however ping websites still. All other computers on the network are running fine, and booting into another system the internet will work. Just not for fedora.

Ubuntu :: Should Mediatomb Generate 3 Separate Of Huge Log Files With 5gb Of Data
Jul 4, 2011I streamed video through a my computer with mediatomb yesterday. The problem is that now, I got these huge log files. I am running out of memory (less than 1 gb left) as we speak. They're filled with ufw entries, but my question is:
I read somewhere about a program called logrotate that were supposed to keep logs from getting to big, is this wrong and should mediatomb generate 3 separate log files with 5gb of data each for just 2 hours of streaming?
Ubuntu Servers :: Mediatomb - Attempting To Stream To Noontec V6 Moviehome
Sep 1, 2011Have installed Mediatomb to stream an .mkv file to a Noontec V6 Moviehome. I can stream movies of the correct filetype to the Noontec already but the manual says with a transcode server it will accept .mkv. The more I looked into it the more I realised why.
Not much idea what I'm doing so a guide would be good. I can ping everything. I can see the computer and stream files from it via the Noontec but how do I mount the Mediatomb server, see that on the Noontec, and stream files from there (mounted on the Mediatomb server I assume)?? All this transcoded on the fly from the Mediatomb server on mylaptop to the Noontec.
ps: I have tweaked with the config.xml file, bit lost there, and feel I might have done more harm than good ...
Debian :: Delay Mediatomb Services Start
Mar 4, 2015I have moved from a raspberry pi to an olimex LIME A20. I have managed to get everything working correctly except mediatomb. I have a USB drive attached, I believe that mediatomb is trying to read the drive before it's mounted leaving me with an empty database.

View 8 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Mediatomb Won't Display ITunes Albums?
Dec 28, 2009I've installed mediatomb (latest version) on Gentoo Linux and am streaming my music to a Denon wifi dock. Works a treat except that when I put iTunes .m4a files into the database they are all inserted into an "/unknown" folder without the album name being displayed. If I change the properties of the "unknown" folder and change the name, then all future additions to the library go into that folder.I can work around this by exporting the files as .mp3 but that seems to be a rather cumbersome way of doing it. Ideally I'd like to be able to just put my iTunes library on a network share that is used for the MediaTomb database.
View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: USB Hard Drive Recognition Samba And Mediatomb?
Jul 28, 2011I have a Ubuntu plug server which I have been using with Samba and Mediatomb and two External USB drives.
I had it working about a year ago and then moved house and set it up again recently.
I had it working till yesterday when one of my children cut the power to one of the hard drives.
Since this I cannot get the system to recognise the drive that was unplugged. I have rebooted, powered down but cannot find the second rive.
When I setup my system again recently the system didn't work so I had to make some changes, I made two directories /dev/media2 and /dev/media3 where I mounted the two drives (sdb1 and sdb2). The system seemed to work fine with both mediatomb and samba.
After the forced powerdown;
/dev/media2 and 3 now seem to have disappeared and the 'working' hard disk is now recognised as sda1 and mounted on /media/external which is how it was before recent changes.
It seems something is taking the system back to previous state.
