nightshadow36 0 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 (edited) Hi.I posted this in another link but i think it should have been here as i am using the ubuntu package.Here is what i wrote if any one could help.I have been waiting a long time for a package for ubuntu so thank you for all the hard work installation went smoothly.At the moment i have been using an nfs share for xbmc.I have now installed the mediabrowser for ubuntu. I was hoping for a little help.I have all my movies at this location media/vod/vodWhen i select "media path in mediabrowser" /media/vod/vod shows in the list but when i select it, it does not show the list of moviesit just has "..." and also it says "The path does not exsit"It a mounted drive, nfs share on the same computer as media brower.The permissions on the drive are media/vod/vod = Me-create and delete files, nogroup-access files, others-access files.The permissions for the movies folders in media/vod/vod are the same as above.The mp4 movies inside the folders are as follows...EXAMPLEmedia/vod/vod/8mile.mp4 = Me-read and write, Nogroup-read only, others-access filesHope there is something simple I am missing.Thank you for any help.

KRA 39 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 you say your movies are in media/vod/vod and the path in MBS is /media/vod/vod is this a typo in the post ? because it's not the same path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fantaxp7 190 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Got my issue fixed with using nfs and mounting that way. I noticed that cpu usage goes up quite a bit when my Android is streaming a file. Like up to 70% from 10-20%. Also the library scan has been stuck at 60.5% for a long time.

Thanks The CPU spike probably has to do with the fact that streaming to Android will spawn a transcode. I am not sure about the library scan though. How big is the library? How long has it been stuck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fantaxp7 190 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Since rebooting MB server things have worked better. I also have added more cpu power to the VM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. All your failures point to precise, there is no precise package. Your sourceslist file must be corrupt. This could be the case if you did an os upgrade from precise to trusty. I would say you need to fix your sourceslist file.

fantaxp7 190 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 service script still kills other running mono apps. sudo service mediabrowser restart (and stop) result in other mono apps stopping. This was fixed right? I noticed after install Sonarr on the same machine that I installed MB server ubuntu on that they would both crash daily. I turned off MB server and Sonarr has been running a few days now without a crash. I just updated my system and MB server is now on Version 3.0.5424.1 Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRA 39 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I don't think it's fixed in that package. Also the init script shouldn't have anything to do with MBS crashing. Only problem is when you run the init script with stop or restart command it would kill other mono apps. So your crashing issue seems to be something else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
im85288 1493 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Yes it is. I had this in April and reported it in this thread: http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/6356-the-posterjpg-is-overwritten-with-a-low-quality-banner-unless-there-is-a-folderjpg-file-present/ As far as I am aware it is still not fixed, there were other things such as the watched icon not appearing as a checkmark.

Ahh I see, I am essentially trying to build something similar. I have Sonarr on their and it's working well, but when I start MBS it uses a lot of the memory though I only assigned 3gb to the VM. I am hoping to try out tvheadened as well. Maybe one day it will be a supported live tv backend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
im85288 1493 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 TVHeadEnd is awesome...works really well in Kodi too (if your using that), just make sure to use the version of the kodi tvheadend addon being developed by the TVHeadEnd Author rather than the one currently in the official repo...as it adds a lot of time shift etc fixes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll definitely check it out. I do periodically check out kodi because it's a great piece of software and I respect it, but I am a bit devoted to this awesome project here It's great though now seeing all of these linux releases. I have had some more success with MB server lately, I had to re-mount my shares and after completing a library scan, the cover art issue when away. I'm trying to lessen the dependency on Windows. I have a win7 VM with server that runs serverwmc, which is great, but I'd like to see a solution that doesn't require transcoding to the client. I use it mostly for scheduling recordings. My hope for an "end all solution" is Android TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lklassen 3 Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Hi, (my first post!) I am still relatively new to Linux (Ubuntu), but I have built a stable file server (now on version 14.04 'trusty') and have also installed mediabrowser server on it successfully. However, how do I do the upgrades? I have tried a few different ways, but none seem to be working. How would I do it from the terminal? Right now I am on version 3.0.5424.1 and would like to upgrade to version 3.0.5445.5. The dashboard is telling me that it's available for manual download and install. I had originally downloaded and installed it like this:1. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:apps-z/mediabrowser2. sudo apt-get update3. sudo apt-get install mediabrowserBut what commands do I use to get the latest updates? I tried commands 2 and 3 above again....but that is not working. I also tried to download the update manually from GitHub - but that is not for Linux/Ubuntu? Sorry if these are very basic 'noob' questions!Great job on mediabrowser by the way...I love it! Thanks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
