Emeds 0 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 First of all, thanks for the great, free service. I look forward to supporting in the future. To the point - I wasn't able to carry out these steps: # Reinstall FFMpeg from ports with lame option enabledcd /usr/ports/multimedia/ffmpegmake config# enable the lame option# enable the ass subtitles optionmake install clean Because of read-only access. No multimedia folder existed. Instead, I just reinstalled FFMpeg (2.8 I think) - everything is working, I'm just wondering if maybe the CPU usage would be more efficient if lame was enabled. I really know nothing about media files and transcoding, sorry. But from what I've heard from others, an i5 processor should easily be able to serve several clients (~4mbps). Right now, at least when the movie initially plays, the CPU hits 90-100% usage, 80% for lower quality files. Does that sound about right? Thanks. **environment- NAS4FREE with Emby installed in a jail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36887 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 efficiency wont' matter, it's just that audio transcoding is going to fail for apps that need conversion to mp3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emeds 0 Posted September 26, 2015 Author Share Posted September 26, 2015 Alright, thanks. Any idea on why I don't have permissions at this step? I'm accessing the server like this Putty --> NAS4FREE --> log into jail with root + wheel privileges but get stuck "cd /usr/ports/multimedia/ffmpeg" since /multimedia doesn't exist and can't write.

I bet you could get better help on the NAS4Free forums/IRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CPU usage has dropped to ~25% now, so restarting probably helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh4trunks 70 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 ohh and just a guess. If you jails are managed using ezjail the /usr/ports directory is a readonly mount into the jail. In this case I would readup on how you install ports to your jails, which would be done on the host system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to read up and see if I can't get that to happen tomorrow. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
