UPnP transcoding server for Ubuntu 9.10


Recommended Posts

Morning,

I would love some suggestions for a transcoding UPnP server for an Ubuntu 9.10 box that supports XBox360, PS3 and PSP. The PSP is a nice-to-have, so if we have to drop this, so be it.

Currently, the server has a smbmount which contains all the media required for sharing. I mention this in case this is relevant, although this media will be migrated to a dedicated NAS rather than a Windows share over the coming months.

There is nothing unusual media wise, XviD, DivX, JPEG, mp3 and such.

I would really appreciate some ideas.

Thanks,

Anthony.

Thanks.

Have you had MediaTomb working on an XBox360? I've installed, setup and configured it but had no luck having the XBox360 pick up the server.

A quick search of the wiki indicated that the XBox360 was currently unsupported.

Thanks.

I know it supports the PS3 (and I'd guess the PSP as well), but haven't tried it with my xbox yet.

There's also Fuppes. It's web says it supports both consoles and does on the fly transcoding, but I haven't tried it and looks harder to get working. If you have luck with it let us know ;)

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
