Serviio

Hi

Installed servvio on ubuntu 10.10 server (headless)

Seems to be working ok however cant seem to stream a few 720p mkv files - which I was hoping it would

Ive left everything at default and chosen the SONY profile in the Web front end for serviio and normal divx files are streaming fine

However when I play an mkv it says cannot be contacted (or along those lines)

Any ideas on how to possibly fix
Thanks all

post the log

Hello -

I have ubuntu 10.04 server installed.
The os is totally up to date to 10.04.2.
I tried installing ffmpeg & lame via apt-get install, they installed correctly

serviio is working for most file types, not mkv.
I tested ffmpeg on it's own and found it was unable to convert an mkv to another file type - O assume this is a result of missing deps.

I have no tried installing with the ffmpeg package on the serviio site because I dont know which options to enable in the ./configure.

Can someone please post their install steps here?? Thanks..

Have a look at the readme file in Serviio distribution

Does this help??


Thanks for any info

Can you enable detailed logging and try it again? It should also include the actual ffmpeg command it ran. Try to run that command and see what is the output of that.

Finally got something

Any ideas???

there will be the ffmpeg command that fails above this in the log. That's what we need.

Sorry for slow replies but having real trouble with the logs

Deleted the older logs and been trying to get new logs however it doesnt seem to be logging now

So annoying - the server seems to be running as divx are streaming ok

Will try to get working and come back but if anybody has any pointers thatll be great too
