AdamBearWA 3 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I was in no way involved in the development of this. Please thank the author Qoolbox on the forum links below. Link to forum post for module http://www.thecus.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=8890 Prerequisite modules FFMPEG: http://www.thecus.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=3178 MONO: http://www.thecus.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=6473 After installing the module from the forum above, manually download the latest MediaBrowser.Mono.zip and overwrite the files in the installation folder (default: /raid/data/module/MediaBrowser/bin/MediaBrowser). Then start the module. This will give you the latest version. Note that there is a bug at the moment where the server won't come back up if you stop it, so leave it running and don't reboot.

Luke 37065 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Great stuff! I need to learn a bit more about Thecus. Perhaps you can ask one of them to join the community and introduce themselves? I currently have a mailing list for all the package builders that I know of. It allows us to collaborate and to keep them informed of any changes. So it would be good to add the developer to that list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamBearWA 3 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 I've sent him a PM. I'm happy to release updated packages for the Thecus as it seems quite simple to do now that Qoolbox has done all the hard work and created the framework. The issue at the moment is that the server doesn't come back up after a reboot, so no installing plug-ins or other operations that require a restart for Thecus users.

Luke 37065 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 reboot of what? stopping MBS or the entire box? it is currently that way with all of the linux releases. there is no automated restart function within MBS for linux. There is a shutdown button. So you have to use that and then restart MBS manually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamBearWA 3 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) No, only MediaBrowser. What I mean is, if you start MediaBrowser, access the UI, add a library, add CoverArt and add Rotten Tomatoes. If you shut it down and then try and start it again, then it runs briefly and then stops. I've posted the error in other topics along with logs.

AdamBearWA 3 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Qoolbox has taken a job at QNap so no more Thecus modules. The good news is, he has provided everything I need to maintain it. What is the best way for me to release the latest version? It's built and ready to go. I guess I should write some sort of basic installation instructions as well. Edited December 14, 2014 by AdamN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamBearWA 3 Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 Anyone else out there have a Thecus NAS and want to test a new release out? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottfree1 0 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Will this run on the PowerPC based Thecus n2310? (AMCC APM 86491 800Mhz, 512MB DDR3 RAM) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagheera1801 0 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Thanks! I installed everything successfully on a Thecus N5550, but I get an error when handling images (which results in a fully operational Media Browser, but without images...)

Which tells me there's something going on with de GDIPlus part of mono (System.DllNotFoundException: libgdiplus.so). Can I manually fix or install libgdiplus.so?

thefirstofthe300 291 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 At this point, I would wait until the next release before doing anything because GDI+ is being dropped in favor of the more efficient ImageMagick so this DLL exception won't be an issue. If you really want to get the libgdiplus installed, you should be able to do it manually. I know very little about Thecus NAS's though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 yea i know libgdiplus is a tough dependency for a number of platforms to resolve. With the next release we'll be using ImageMagick and it will be much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagheera1801 0 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Thanks, good to know! Any idea when the next release is due? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Depechie 6 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Has this picked up again? I'm also running the Thecus N5550 at home and would like to try out the media browser module. So anyone any idea on the status and how to try it? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdhorner 0 Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 I also have the Thecus N5550. Has there been an update since 2014? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamBearWA 3 Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 I bought a blank DOM off ebay for a few dollars and installed Ubuntu 15.04 from a USB stick. It detected the raid array automatically and now I run any apps I want including emby server. I can't see any support forthcoming for the older Thecus firmwares.
