[Cialug] Mediatomb

[Dan Hockey]

There were two lines I had to change in the config.xml file
/mediatomb/config/config.xml

The first thing I changed was the following

</server>
<import hidden-files="no">
<protocolinfo extend="yes">    <--- This is the line I had to put in after
reading through the docs on the
mediatomb page.


The mediatomb icon showed up on the ps3 after adding that line. 
Then farther down in the config look for the following...

<!-- Uncomment the line below for PS3 divx support -->
<map from="avi" to="video/divx"/>

Just removed the "<--" and "-->" to uncomment that lins and save the file..

I had to log on as root in order to save the config.xml file.

I haven't had much time to do more than to play some short avi's and mp3's
to test it.

I recently started playing with MediaTomb+PS3 -- did you get it to work
so that it transcoded DIV3 files and not all divx? I have spent an
evening trying to get that to work, and failed.

Any advice would be nice.

Currently I am trying to get ffmpegthumbnailer to install/compile on
fedora 8, and to fix the annoying way they list files.
