Hi, ffmpeg seems to work (I tried converting an avi video to mkv and worked). I tried to compile source from here https://sourceforge.net/projects/minidlna/files/minidlna/1.3.0/minidlna-1.3.0.tar.gz/download but with no luck. Switched to Gerbera. Sante Il 06/10/2021 12:40, John Paul Adrian

Poll: Is anyone using nouveau driver on ppc64 system?
