can someone help me?
on my ib-nas4210 with fun_plug minidlna will not find files.
after start minidlna the database was created and in the first media folder a file was created "core"!?
inotify is disabled, when enabled then comes some errors.

Here is my log:

[2010/11/27 12:48:05] minidlna.c:720: warn: Starting MiniDLNA version 1.0.18 [SQLite 3.5.6].

As i wrote earlier.. you shout try a different file system like ext2 to make sure that miniDLNA is (or is not) ntfs compatible. I believe that i read a report somewhere, that ntfs does not work... but i cant say it for certain.

great stuff.  I have read thru the thread and installed various lib that mindlina requires.  However, I still cannot start up minidlina.  Still getting the following error message

/ffp/sbin/minidlna: can't load library 'libpng12.so.0'

I tried search the forum and google, still can't get a good idea of how to load this library.  any help would be really appreciated.

This is great stuff.. I followed all the great instructions here and have my miniDLNA up and running. Thanks everyone for contributing.

I have one question. I have been backing up my DVDs as .VOB files. I also have some .AVI files and some mp4 files. On my TV when go to the video directory, I see that all the avi files have thumbnails while the vob & mp4 files do not.

Has anyone seen the same issue? Any solution? I don't want to convert the VOB files to AVI and lose quality so any solution that would not require that conversion or maintain the quality with conversion would be most welcome.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Working good on my LG so far..

on my LE46C750 to make chapters menu appear, I press the Enter Button , the one among the direction arrows

Anyone have any trouble with:

[2010/12/12 11:37:46] minidlna.c:996: error: accept(http): Too many open files
[2010/12/12 11:37:49] minidlna.c:996: error: accept(http): Too many open files
[2010/12/12 11:37:49] minidlna.c:996: error: accept(http): Too many open files
[2010/12/12 11:38:06] minidlna.c:996: error: accept(http): Too many open files
[2010/12/12 11:38:07] minidlna.c:996: error: accept(http): Too many open files

Does miniDLNA transcode or stream on the fly?

I'm streaming to my LG LE5400 HDTV that has a built-in DLNA client.  When I use miniDLNA to stream video and I push the info button the file is reported as being mpeg4 when it is actually an xvid file.  When using the default UPNP of the dns323, the info shows the correct info.

So I can't believe I'm the only one having trouble with the two following (I believe they are related):

[2010/12/12 11:37:46] minidlna.c:996: error: accept(http): Too many open files
[2010/12/12 11:37:49] minidlna.c:996: error: accept(http): Too many open files

[2010/12/12 11:38:07] minidlna.c:996: error: accept(http): Too many open files

It's very annoying as at the moment I can only have a small number of a files on my minidlna and have to disable the automatic update, otherwise I will always get the 'too many open files' error.

My thoughts are that minidlna can't find the max open files limit for the DNS 323 so it's just guessing and it's guessing wrong.

Anyone have any guesses? Or any alternatives to minidlna?

andrew,
pls share your experiences on mediatomb. Stability, speed, performance... Eg. how many shared folders/files do you have?
thx

I used mediatomb with my freebox, I could read all videos (avi, mkv)
Now I have a Samsung Bluray and I use minidlna. All is OK too and I can listen mp3 directly !

It's sure the indexing is very slow !!!!

For mkv, what is your max file size over the network ?

Anyone managed to get this working with alt-f firmware? I've managed to get a version of minidlna working with pause and jump forward/back support, however the version stated to be working in this thread doesn't work for me (problems scanning the media, the call to scandir in scanner.c seems to completely lock up). I also have problems with a version of minidlna that i've compiled from sources.

Ok work with last cvs
