Re: Which Media Server (if any) is working for you?

Interesting, I'm sure I could find a corner for that. I have been coveting http://www.amazon.co.uk/Zotac-ZBOX-ID41-B-ZBOX-ID41-Mini/dp/B004SLVXYE/ref=sr_1_3?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1309449992&sr=1-3 as a PC option. I guess the first thing to do though is work out what spec I need and wha...

Re: Which Media Server (if any) is working for you?

Hi Yes, it would be very nice to have dedicated rederers/streamers throughout the house. Unfortunately (or fortunately I suppose) I am trying to buy a house so the £600 for the 3 Boxee Box's has a better home at the minute. Money wins out I'm afraid. :problem: Were you thinking of a Boxee Box or Box...

Re: Which Media Server (if any) is working for you?

Not sure if this is a help to anyone or not. I have happily used PS3Mediaserver (Now PMS) for a number of years, I know it has many detractors but it does what it does. It streams to a host of renderers not just the PS3. We are running both an XBox and PS3 off ours at the minute. There is an easy to...

Re: A couple of strange problems

Hi N1z I've had a couple of these issues too, are you using 11.04 by any chance? For some reason someone thought that having a short cut on the d key to minimise the window was a good idea. You need to remap it from the System>Preferences>Keyboard short cuts. I also had issues with the package manag...

Podcast handling

Morning all Just a quick question, what is the podcast handler of choice in Ubuntu? I have used Juice for ages on my windows box and would be more than happy to use the Linux version except it is still being written. :evil: It needs to be simple to maintain, should run from the cmd line. Although I ...

Re: FlexGet RSS Feeds

lol thanks Ian, You should have kept quiet, I'd have thought I was being thick. I also had to indent the program rss, as when I pasted the example it had no indentation which gave an error. I also had an error because I hadn't created the incomplete folder, dohhh. I still haven't managed to get anyt...

Re: FlexGet RSS Feeds

I'm having some difficulty with getting flexget working. I copied Ian's example and pasted it straight into my config.yml file. The only thing I changed was the paths to the save directories. I get the following error. media@MediaServer:~$ sudo -H -u deluge flexget 2011-05-26 18:37 CRITICAL manager ...

KVM Fileserver

Hello all I have been playing around with the idea of running a media server for a while now. I'd flirted with the idea of Linux in the past but always ended up going back to windows because I knew what I was doing there. When I came across Ian's Website it focused my efforts to sort out a proper sy...
