Luke 40079 Posted December 1, 2014 Author Posted December 1, 2014 well where is server.peteflix coming from? it should be just localhost.
dinggus 0 Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 (edited) Seeing I ran a "sudo" command for the old method through terminal, how do I cancel it? Reason I ask is because I installed the OSX package, and I still see 2 Media Browsers (like last time) and none of them will load fully, just shows a "loading" symbol on my xbox one. Also, on OSX when I click on Media Browser and select Browse Media. My Movies folder is synced, but my TV folder isn't. I've had this issue since the previous update. Here is my log: http://paste2.org/N2YmCt7p Edited December 1, 2014 by dinggus
Gododgerz 2 Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 I think running the sudo commands etc. during the previous install method have also caused an issue for me. I have no idea to revert back to my original computers state so that the new installer can perform a clean install. Any ideas?
Luke 40079 Posted December 2, 2014 Author Posted December 2, 2014 Before it was just a manual portable app. There wasn't actually an installation. I would think you could just delete the folder and you'll be fine, but I am not a longtime mac user so I'm sure there are others here know better. With the new install even though it is the same application, I'm not sure how osx would associate them together given the different delivery methods. But i could be wrong.
akafester 2 Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 You can kill the sudo command in the activity monitor under the CPU tab. That should fix the problem you have with the installer.
thefarmer 0 Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 I've had my Mac for a week, so I'm not up to scratch yet on some basics. I've installed media browser, but I'm having issues trying to map network folders to scan media. I've used IP addresses, hostnames, \\ and //, and all I get is a message saying please fill out path. Any ideas what I've missed? Thnx

Nate8727 9 Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 (edited) Will there be updates from the dashboard for Mac, or do we still have to update manually? Edited December 2, 2014 by Nate8727

akafester 2 Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 What am I looking for under the CPU tab? The sudo command. It's just called sudo. If it isn't in the list it's not running and your problem may lay elsewhere.

Have you mapped the the share in finder? Go -> connect to server, type smb://server-ip-or-name afp://server-ip-or-name nfs://server-ip-or-name depending on what kind of share you are using.
Nate8727 9 Posted December 4, 2014 Posted December 4, 2014 Does anyone know how to turn off the "take the tour" option?
Nate8727 9 Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 The latest update is basically unresponsive. When trying to go past the dashboard, the loading circle appears and thats it. I can't search for movies/tv shows, nor can I browse the library. I don't think I had the same issues with the previous release.
Nate8727 9 Posted December 7, 2014 Posted December 7, 2014 server-63553334400.txtserver-63553420801.txtserver-63553507201.txttranscode-b6ebcdb8-340a-4521-a58d-b544e2fbaa42.txt Ok, here are some other issues along with what I was having in the previous post. I've attached log files (It's kind of a pain to find them until you enable hidden folders on the mac). The other 2 issues I'm having now are Movies and TV Shows aren't showing up on the web interface, and there are no images in the web interface or the Rokus. I'm getting an error message which I have 2 screenshots that show what I mean. Hope this helps.
Luke 40079 Posted December 28, 2014 Author Posted December 28, 2014 i've pushed an update to the mac installer. please try again. please note that some of these failures may be cached by the browser. in order to properly test you need visit a page in the web interface that you didn't visit before. so for example, open a different movie then you tested earlier. then it it works, clear your browser cache.

Luke 40079 Posted December 30, 2014 Author Posted December 30, 2014 I've posted an updated installer that resolves this issue: http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/15947-error-in-meta-data-retrieval/
grimsage 5 Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Two questions: Is there a reason this is a pkg file instead of a dmg? How difficult it would be to move the .config into ~/Library/Application Support/? As this is the common location settings for a program are stored on OS X. A Comment: I am working on getting this added to caskroom https://github.com/caskroom/homebrew-cask/pull/8544 Hopefully you are ok with that, if you are not please let me know and I will remove it.
Luke 40079 Posted December 30, 2014 Author Posted December 30, 2014 pkg yes so that it can eventually go into the mac app store. i will not likely maintain both a pkg and dmg just on account of the extra work. config can be moved easily without a migration. we could probably just make the switch while this installer is so new that it a relatively small audience.
grimsage 5 Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 It is now possible to install mediabrowser-server via the command line if one is using homebrew (http://brew.sh/) and homebrew-cask (http://caskroom.io) by simply typing into the terminal brew cask install mediabrowser-server 1
grimsage 5 Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 Currently it will do the latest version directly from the github releases repository.
