[vyrticul]

Not a whole lot has changed in this release, just fixed up a couple of things and updated some others.

Code: Select all

version 0.1.2 (05/18/2010)
  [*] All users added to the system can run commands that require different access with sudo.
  [*] FlexGet, PS3 Media Server, SABnzbd, and Transmission commands will now make sure they are executed with the right permissions.
  [*] Got rid of an annoying warning message when starting NFS.
  [*] Updated Transmission to 1.93.
  [*] Updated FlexGet to r1278.
  [*] Updated SABnzbd to 0.5.2.
  [*] Minor script cleanups.

Hello!
First of all, great idea! Testing the stuff as we speak, not that familiar yet with linux commands so a none GUI linux distro is abit hard for me. However its fun to try it out

few things i would like to see in the future:

- Auto sub downloader
- Remote control (Web interface thingy) for easy reboot, manage etc for the server.
- New Mencoder plugin by Chocolat to play webstreams (Doesnt work atm)

Anyways, for now i have a problem with SABnzbd. i installed the live CD on my system (using the command u gave earlier) seems to work good (Flexget works) but SABnzbd wont install. When i enter the Sabzbd-setup it just does nothing...
When i try to start service SABnzbd it says it not installed.

Please some pointers on what i can try.

Doh, stupid mistake on my part, put the SABnzbd files in the wrong folder.

This will fix it:

Code: Select all

sudo mv /opt/sabnzbd/SABnzbd-0.5.2/* /opt/sabnzbd/
sudo rm -r /opt/sabnzbd/SABnzbd-0.5.2/


Then just run `service sabnzbd start`

Yep, that fixed it. Thought it was something like that but well i just need to learn linux more i guess.

Trying the mencoder plugin by chocolatboy atm, as webstreams does not work here.

(Sorry if i spam with things that dont work)

Got SabNZBd working, got it all working i think

Problem i have atm is with subtitles on PS3 media server. They dont play. Altough he detects them (and i put in the right values on PMS.conf) it doesnt show on streaming.
I had this problem when i started with ps3 media server on ubuntu.

apologizing for telling me my distribution is horrible and falling apart? lol don't apologize. this is good, finally getting some features i don't use often fixed up.

Hopefully most "advertised" features work for you now

and btw, I'm looking into chocolateboy's PMSEncoder for web streaming and adding it to the next version.

Thanks for the effort, vyrticu. Will give it a try.

[ps3home]

No subtitles here. Any news on that?

Stupid question: why isn't mencoder using more than 1 cpu?

[srinicame]

Will the live cd environment be able to resume any downloads stopped during the previous sessions?
