Yeay! I got it working:)
Maybe it is a little to late since the last post was 9 months ago but this forum helped me at this moment so just thought I try to help out a bit:)
I am currently using it with my Bravia KDL-37W5500. But this also works with the ps3 and transformer prime.
To make this newbie friendly I'll describe it as good as I can.
First off, this obiously was an ffmpeg error. I found this out by running the following command:
- Code:
ffmpeg -i /path/to/some/file.mkv
That command gave me a bunch of stuff that I did not now what meant, all I could understand was that it had to to with ffmpeg.
So I reckoned I'd uninstalled (for fun if nothing else):
[code}
apt-get remove --purge ffmpeg
apt-get autoremove
[/code]
When this was done I somehow found the latest stable ffmpeg releases in a ppa repo:
https://launchpad.net/~jon-severinsson/+archive/ffmpeg?field.series_filter=preciseThe website provedes a rather good explanation for how to add it to you repository, but here is what I did:
- Code:
add-apt-repository ppa:jon-severinsson/ffmpeg
apt-get update
apt-get install ffmpeg
Then I just rebooted my machine and it worked nicely. I guess a restart of serviio also would do.
As an alternative to adding the repository using
you could manully place the url in the list of sources: (NB! I did not test this)
Select your version of ubuntu in the dropdown list and there will show two lines like this:
- Code:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/jon-severinsson/ffmpeg/ubuntu precise main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/jon-severinsson/ffmpeg/ubuntu precise main
Open /etc/apt/sources.list with your favourive editor and just add those lines at the bottom of the file, update aptitude and install:
- Code:
vi /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get install ffmpeg
Hope this helps:)
