Re: uShare 1.1a working fully. Finally enjoy video streaming to xbox360 :)

This is really interesting Naba, is there any chance of having a version complied for ffp 0.5? Move with the times and all? I understand ffp 0.4 and ffp 0.5 can co-exist so I could install the older version as well, but it'd be much better to have the single, more recent version supported!

I always feel bad asking people to do something for free, but it would be really great, to be able to stream video straight to the 360 with a neat little package smile

Re: uShare 1.1a working fully. Finally enjoy video streaming to xbox360 :)

Hey all,

I acquired a D-Link DNS-323 and am now hacking at getting it to stream to my xBox 360.   I'm not a total Linux newb as I replaced Winblows from all my machines and have been using Debian full time for about 2 years now.  I have fun_plug working on it, and have also installed uShare (I used the pre-compiled one listed here instead of compiling it).  I have divided up the hard drives into a few different directories - one for all my documents and file archives I want to be accessible by the computers on my network, and one for the media I wish to stream.  My media directory is split up into three directories with the category being the directory names - "Music", "Photos", & "Videos".  I then split up those directories with subdirectories - music is split up by "Artist",  then "Album", occasionally "CD#".  The music for each is then placed into the last corresponding directory.  My Photo directory is split up into sub-directories by event.  The same applies to the videos directory.  Now, the music I can access the songs directly, but only by song directly (using "Songs" on my 360).  I can't access them by genre, artist, album, etc.  The photo's and video's I cannot see or access what-so-ever.  Any idea's what I've done wrong?

Re: uShare 1.1a working fully. Finally enjoy video streaming to xbox360 :)

I just tried yesterday with a unmodded dns323 in UPNP mode

My xbox360 sees the dns323, also sees the directories I indexed, but NO subdirectories and in the music directory it sees no files (all mp3), in the picture folder, no pictures (all jpg), but strange enough in the video directory (I created the folders on the dns323) all files are seen and the box plays the WMV videos (not my avi)

I am flabbergasted... any one has an idea ???

regards
doede

Two additions;

You can refresh the shared media indexing and adding new shares by connecting to;
http://[DNS IP Address]:[uShare port]/web/ushare.html

I have not tried this but have connected so it is there.

I have also built uShare for XBox streaming although no DLNA (PS3) support as of yet.

Check out the FW1.5 and ffp 0.5 uShare thread for details.

Also thanks to kh_naba as this thread solved a couple of issues with my build and I had been running this version of uShare on ffp 0.4 without an issue for a while.

I have the same problem as douma does. It will see avi's files but will not play them. It will play the wmv files without a problem. It also doesn't see all of my files only some of them which is weird.

Re: uShare 1.1a working fully. Finally enjoy video streaming to xbox360 :)

hello,

i am another newbie who needs your help. i've got fun-plug 0.5 running on my nas, and now i wanted to install ushare, so i can play media files on my xbox 360.

how do i install ushare with funplug 0.5?

it seems the funpkg command is working different.

root@CH3SNAS:/mnt/HD_a2# funpkg
funpkg
Copyright (c) 2008 Tobias Poschwatta <tp@fonz.de>

Install:   funpkg -i <packages...>
Reinstall: funpkg -I <packages...>
Upgrade:   funpkg -u <packages...>
Remove:    funpkg -r <packages...>

Other options:
  -D <path>  System root directory (default: /)

so I wrote
root@CH3SNAS:/mnt/HD_a2# funpkg -i ushare-1.1a-fun-plug.tgz

and received this error message:
FATAL: ushare-1.1a-fun-plug.tgz: /ffp not found in package

please, can someone help me?

if ushare is not working with funplug 0.5, so how do I downgrade to 0.4?

thanks in advance

Re: uShare 1.1a working fully. Finally enjoy video streaming to xbox360 :)

Does anyone know of where to find the source package?

The link: http://anjuta.org/naba/ushare-1.1a-dns-323-src.tar.gz

no longer works.

Alternatively, does someone know how to compile ushare without DLNA support?

When I run the stock code, the software runs very slowly, with the log indicating.

calling dlna_vfs_add_resource

taking a long time.

thanks.

No need for a new compile. After installing ushare, edit ffp/etc/ushare.conf and set ENABLE_DLNA=no.

Re: uShare 1.1a working fully. Finally enjoy video streaming to xbox360 :)

I appreciate the reply, thank you. I verified that the ENABLE_DLNA is set to no, and I am still getting the very slow response time when the ushare starts up and traverses the picture library.

When I run the binary in the ushare1.1a-fw1.5-ffp0.5-no_dlna directory, it outputs the following:


/mnt/HD_a2/Media/m/pictures/2010-05 (May)/DSC06809.JPG
Entry->URL (106115): 106115.JPG

whereas the binary I build from the source outputs:


calling dlna_vfs_add_resource
[libdlna] New resource id #1 (103_0363_r1.jpg)
[libdlna] Resource is parent of #0 (root)
xxdir: /mnt/HD_a2/Media/m/pictures/103_0364_r1.jpg
calling dlna_vfs_add_resource
[libdlna] New resource id #2 (103_0364_r1.jpg)
[libdlna] Resource is parent of #0 (root)

What is also interesting is that latest source seems to have a --disable-dlna option in the configure script, but I am having issues getting the source that I found to build.

Thanks again, for any help.

The hope for all of this activity is to get my xbox to be able to more reliably stream 1080p movies and to create a more flexible picture slideshow.

Regards,
