PS3 Media Server plugin?

  • Is there a possibility that PS3 Media Server will be included as a plugin at some point? It is a DLNA-compliant UPnP Media Server written in java (is that a problem?), with Linux versions of the software. It also transcodes on the fly, so .mkv files can easily be viewed on the PS3. Although it's not limited to supporting the PS3, but also the Xbox, televisions, smartphones and so on.


    The only coding I know is Python 101, so I have no idea if it would be hard to do.

  • Is this confirmed to work? I tried the script, but got a 404 page error when trying to connect to the https address. I also downloaded the .deb manually and copied it to one of my shares. I should be able to install it using sudo dpkg -i, but I have no idea how to access the shared folder from the shell, or how to copy the .deb to root :?:

  • Your hard drives are mounted at /media.
    If you
    cd /media
    then do
    ls
    yo will see your hard drives
    e.g. 3c889f0c-1e0e-4049-9be9-338b738037b8
    so if you cd /media/3c88 then press TAB (while in the /media subfolder from root) it will comlete the path and then press ENTER
    now you will be in path /media/3c889f0c-1e0e-4049-9be9-338b738037b8 and if you do a
    ls
    you will see your folders (or shares if they are the folders you've shared at the root of the mounted drive).


    Install webmin. It has a File Manager.
    http://www.webmin.com/deb.html


    cd /home

    Code
    wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.610_all.deb


    dpkg --install webmin_1.610_all.deb
    apt-get -f install


    then access webmin via
    https://ipofyouromv:10000 (e.g ipofyouromv=192.168.1.110)


    login with root user and your root password
    Once in webmin the file manager is located at others/filemanager
    Make sure you install java on your windows machine http://www.java.com/en/
    The file manager will not work on Windows til you have java installed.


    Ha det bra.....

  • It doesn't look like this was going to be easy. The installer says I'm missing a bunch of packages like upstart-job, flac, imagemagic and default-jre. I'm guessing it would be possible to install them all, but I think it will be too much of a hassle for me to do so. I guess in the meantime I can get by with miniDLNA, and try out Plex which I was able to install. At least I got a file browser :)
