MediaTomb for ReadyNAS Ultra
Hi, I've finally managed to run MediaTomb on my ReadyNAS Ultra 4. With the current setup I can stream any video to my PS3. Subtitles are supported but only as external srt or sub file (that must be...
I've uploaded a new version of the package. Now it supports multiple external subtitles.
Basically you place video (avi, ogm, mkv, mp4) and subtitles (srt, sub) in the same directory and you make sure the the subtitles are named according in the following format:
videoclip.avi
videoclip.srt
videoclip.en.srt
videoclip.it.srt
In your PS3 you will see 4 entries: one avi and three subtitles. If you play the avi file you will get the default subtitle track, i.e. videoclip.srt. Instead if you play the third or the forth entry you will get the subtitles in either english or italian.
Notice that if the file videoclip.srt is not available the videoclip could be streamed without transcoding (if the codecs are supported by the PS3) which should improve the video quality. Instead if you use subtitles the video is always transoded.
Tested on a readynas ultra4 (firmware 4.2.19) and a PS3 slim.
