I was looking at the DLNA server and uShare and saw that they don't transcode the videos. So i looked around and found Fuppes that works with Linux. now i have not tried it yet but i was wondering if it could work in amahi. i dont think it would take much because you change the settings through a web browser already, and all would be needed would to be to change the config file to look in the /var/ folder for the media. do you think this would work? i dont have the time nor the know how to make a package and submit the app, but i dont think it would be so hard. any ideas?
Thanks
Fuppes Package?
Re: Fuppes Package?
We actually did try fuppes but it did not work out.
I forget why. Things change and it may work better now. If you can make it work once, chances are we can package it for easy one-click install, though.

Re: Fuppes Package?
I'm using ps3mediaserver to transcode videos. It's not an Amahi app so you have to install it in Fedora. Actually there's no install, just download the latest verison (I use 1.20.412 the latest beta I think) and expand in to a directory (I use /opt).
Execute pms.sh and that's it. You'll need to have a desktop running on the server since it's a Java application. My Amahi is headless so I run VNC server to remotely connect and run ps3mediaserver. You may need to do some configuration tweaks depending on your setup but there's lots of information on the ps3mdeiaserver forums. Also this version contains several pre-defined configuration (.conf) files so likely you'll find one that fits your setup.
I like to use Amahi's DLNA server to stream videos that don't need transcoding but that's not always possible and I've found ps3ms will handle most everything else.
