[SOLVED] I can't see movies, but I see songs

Hi,
when I connect my Sony TV KDL-40HX855 I can see my mediaserver and I can access to my photos and music, but when I try to browse my third path for movies directory is empty.
I configured 3 different paths for music, photos and movies... I already force and refresh lybrary but nothing changed...
I'm using Linux Mint 14 - 64 bit.

Can you help me please?

Re: I can't see movies, but I see songs

What is your ffmpeg version ? Try to use this one : http://www.serviio.org/download
This release includes FFmpeg compiled using this source code, libRTMP 2.4 compiled using this source code and Lame MP3 Encoder (v. 3.98) compiled using this source code.


If that not help, could you provide information about your movies format ? (see signature links)

How can I check this info?

I'm pretty sure inside my movies directory I have different video formats, but if you tell me one format I can try to check it...

Re: I can't see movies, but I see songs

Yesterday I followed this page: http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=build_ffmpeg_linux
then I run:
  Code:
sudo apt-get remove ffmpeg x264 libx264-dev libvpx-dev librtmp0 librtmp-dev


Well after the end my system "lost" about 500Mb and a lot of applications has been removed! (Chrome, LibreOffice, Virtualbox, Torrent, etc...).
WHY?!?!?

I know it was also my fault because I didn't care of warning message: "It will be remove the following packages for a total size of 500Mb [...] "
but why running that command I lost my applications??
What's going wrong? :roll:

Re: I can't see movies, but I see songs

I reinstalled my Linux Mint :evil:
I followed again this page: http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=build_ffmpeg_linux but now after this step
  Code:
sudo apt-get remove ffmpeg x264 libx264-dev libvpx-dev librtmp0 librtmp-dev
I answered NO when system ask me to remove 500Mb of software!
Well now everything is installed and I can watch my movies on my Sony TV.

Please note
Following the procedure I had one error and I need to set my /tmp directory to a different path:

(section)
Build and Install FFmpeg

  Code:
[...]
export TMPDIR=~/tmp-ffmpeg
mkdir $TMPDIR
./configure --enable-gpl --enable-libfaac --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libx264 --enable-nonfree --enable-postproc --enable-version3 --enable-x11grab --enable-libvpx --enable-librtmp --enable-libxvid
./configure --enable-gpl --enable-libfaac --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libx264 --enable-nonfree --enable-postproc --enable-version3 --enable-x11grab --enable-libvpx --enable-librtmp --enable-libxvid
make
sudo checkinstall --pkgname=ffmpeg --pkgversion="7:$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M)-git" --backup=no --deldoc=yes --fstrans=no --default
rm -rf $TMPDIR
export TMPDIR=
[...]


I suggest you to add this warning on the procedure.

Regards,
Rocco
