Hmm... I did this differently, I must say. I set up a user and group both named serviio. I extracted the linux distro under /usr/local and made it owned by serviio:serviio, and added a symlink /usr/local/serviio to point to the actual directory extracted into. You can put a symlink in servi

I have tried napp-it a couple of times, and again today to check on Mediatomb. I have an issue with napp-it in that it seems to actually require a fresh base install of OI. Napp-it installs other SW w/o attempting to avoid conflicts, and relying solely on creating a new BE to enable backing t

Indeed, this works well. First you must say "xhost +" or "xhost +host" in a term window on the display host, then do the ssh -X ... You can even say: ssh -X username@serviio.server /dir/where/serviio/is/installed/bin/serviio-console.sh and it will display after a few seconds. The library dat

I second that: using the Android console is the easiest, if you have an Android phone or tablet. Otherwise running the serviio-console.sh on a linux box or the console exe on a windows box will work. On 2013-03-07 22:50, Fabio Rodrigues wrote: Consoles (I use the Android one, very good): http

I second the serviio recommendation. the ffmpeg in the OI SFE-encumbered repository has been updated recently to 1.1.2, and compiled with the right bits to manage everything incl subtitling in serviio, so you no longer absolutely need to compile ffmpeg yourself. Setting up the right profile
