PS3 Media Server for ReadyNAS PRO

[yupsolo]

By the way, I managed to get all 3 packages needed to get a PS3 MS on the readyNAS:

1-JAVA
2-codecs/engines
3-PMS



PM if u need them to help get this project restarted!!!


Yes we can do it

🙂

Will the hardware of the ReadyNAS Ultra(Single core) be good enough to run PS3 media server?

[JarnoG]

Yes it is. It can't decode and stream the raw video data but it's fast enough for anything else

[GBE88]

1080p .mkv will run proper?

[yupsolo]

probably not, 720P works

[JarnoG]

I streamed 1080p mkv to our PS3 from my Ultra 2 so it does work, mostly... It had a few minor pauses during the whole movie (~150min)

[yupsolo]

you used the psm+mencoder+java released here???


can't have mkv to work with this release...

sometime it workd but is still unstable and can't get the subs to work. we desperatly need and update!


hope supper-poussin will come in!

🙂

[JarnoG]

Yes, I used the one posted here and manually updated the .jar file of pms later on though the mkvs were working before that.

I usually watch 720p though, so that might be why i don't have a lot of problems 😉

[yupsolo]

ok you installed all 3 pack


then you replace one .jar file (the ps3 media server main file) ?

did you manage to get rid of the russian language and have cfg in english?


thanx!



btw: any subtitles???

[JarnoG]

I downloaded the linux-version of pms from their website and unpacked it to /c/addons-config/pms
it overwrote a few more things, but i backupped pms.conf and editted the new one to get my settings back.

It worked, though i think not everything went smoothly (sometimes it stopped updating or couldn't be found and it took very long to be found after a restart) and i was to lazy to search for the problem, so i uninstalled everything and went back to the version that was posted here a while back.

And I don't know much about subtitles, but it should find them automatically.

[yupsolo]

thx for the infos.

[GBE88]

I have installed the three files that where posted in page 4.
The NAS is not showing up @ the PS3.

Do I need to do anything else?

[yupsolo]

is remote enabled on the NAS?


cuz for me, with remote enabled, it anounced the media server"ouside" my network via remote...


disable it to be sure and reboot the NAS


let us know any developments

[GBE88]

Yes , that fixed the problem. But I also want to use the remote service. is there a way to use them both?

I also am trying to edit the pms.conf file. But every time when I save the file and restart PMS. The file has the default values ans all my changes in the file are gone.

I change the file here /c/addons-config/pms

[yupsolo]

I'm use both

start the remote service AFTER PS3ms...


I think I did that.


let me know if subs are working with ps3ms....

[GBE88]

Yes , now both works.

How to change the pms.conf file?

Do you also use Sabnzbd+

[yupsolo]

you need write access to the directory ( sorry no time to explain how)


I don't use sabnzbd+

[GBE88]

I ssh to it with root

[yupsolo]

no ssh access needed

do it via frontview: share access or somethnig like that.

I'll try to explain it to you later tonight

[GBE88]

Do you allready have time?

[GBE88]

Yupsolo, can you explain how to change folders for PMS?

[yupsolo]

to give up write access to addons-config:

from fronview, shares, share listing.

from there, go to addons-config (where all ps3ms folders resides) and click on CIFS and give default access to READ-WRITE

go on advanced tab and go to SET OWNERSHIP....blabla and check the box.

click apply

you should be ok.

hope this help. if not check around the forum for help on permissions.

[GBE88]

addons-config isn't a share at my NAS

[GBE88]

The media share points to the addon-config folder....... how is that possible??????

[GBE88]

/etc/frontview/samba/Shares.conf says:
[media]
path = /c/addons-config

I want to change this to

[media]
path = /c/media

Evertytime i change the file and save it... after a reboot it changed back
