MiniDlna .conf not working

Postby salocinbake » Mon Jan 11, 2010 5:59 pm

I was added to the beta testers last night, I stopped Ushare, and installed both RPMFusionss,
miniDLNA installed ok. The Amahi dnla server was visible on my windows 7 machines, and my PS3. Fast and love the thumbnails.

When I modify the amahi-dlna.conf file under root, there is no change in the output. Even if all 3 defaults files are commented out, they are still showing...

I did restart the dlna server after every change, (commnad line or hda dashboard) and tried rebooting the server.

But still the same result.

sorry for the delay. in the root, you say?

should be

Code: Select all

/var/hda/apps/dlna/amahi.conf
also please add that to the wiki if it's not there - we're trying to encourage more user participation :)

Yes Cpg,
I logged into my HDA under root, then modified n

Code: Select all

nano /var/hda/apps/dlna/amahi.conf
But still no change in the output when folders are added in the amahi.conf

did you

Code: Select all

service amahi-dlna restart
?

just checking.

you can try amahi-dlna -d -f /var/hda/apps/dlna/amahi.conf

after you kill the main one(and also stop monit), this should start it in debug mode.

you can try amahi-dlna -d -f /var/hda/apps/dlna/amahi.conf
Actually, as per this thread http://forums.amahi.org/viewtopic.php?f ... wrapheader, I believe you have to throw in a -R as well. E.g.

Code: Select all

#> /etc/init.d/amahi-dlna stop #> /usr/bin/amahi-dlna -d -R -f /var/hda/apps/dlna/amahi.conf #> /etc/init.d/amahi-dlna start
The -R appears to rescan the amahi.conf file looking for new folders, etc, rather than changes within the currently recognised folders.

ok!

here is a new test release with the playlist changes and the -R flag added.

- 32bits: http://alpha.amahi.org/tmp/amahi-dlna-0.91-7.i686.rpm
- 64bits: http://alpha.amahi.org/tmp/amahi-dlna-0.91-7.x86_64.rpm

please take it to town and test that if you change the conf file and a so a service amahi-dlna restart, t sees the new settings!

as usual, if you can find time to file a bug or feature requests for these things, it's better, for tracking purposes :)

Looks to be pretty good so far. No issues noticed yet.
