Beta 2 "File not found" MD won't Play Media(fix WORKAROUND)

[emachala]

Im unsure what is wrong now that ive got my install basically working nice...  everything works sound video... stuck at 720p buts okay for now...  during AV wizard i noticed it could find the audio track to play so it said no sound ...  and after that couldn't find the video setup girl  file either...  Now all setup  i get this when i try and play audio or video...

File not found: /home/public/data/other/flash(sbd1)-core [34]/ the movie.avi or audio.mp3

I decided to test sound to make sure the hardware was working...  i added a MH play Internet radio button to orbiter for MD  under investigation ... plays Internet music like a charm.... same for my weather stream...

What can i do to fix the issue to allow my MD to connect to music and video's on network... or in this case for testing a usb flash plugged into core  (haven't moved my NAS off my 0710 core and 1 MD for keeping the family at bay)  but very close i think...

all the drive mappings are done for you, automatically  seems mine didn't go through since gettings video workings was a pain...  Is there a script or something i can run to recreate these mappings?

Still cant get media to play on netboot MD

So... I did a Fresh format and fresh install of 810...  then did web install install this time... setup my nivida drivers first this time... and was able to skip the hassle of failed wizards and what not... MD setup perfect and automatic besides pressing Q...


Still recevied errors that greetings video and sample audio were not found

so undoubtedly  when MD was up and going file isn't found when trying to play media or audio, but i can play on core...

The only thing i have to do to get core started is when it boots for first time it hangs causes its amd64... so i goto webadmin and try to change amd64 to i386 its always is hanging there forever.. so i ended up copying mac address deleting MD and adding a new generic MD... and add mac and build image after that it boots updates and reboots and Avwizard starts...   would this cause a issue it is how i always did it my MD's on 0710?

has anyone else had this problem im stumped...  Really could use a hand if anyone has any ideas

Don't worry about amd64 or i386 .... there is only 1 386 image. The amd64 image is linked to the i386 one, so they are currently using the same image.

hmm still gets stuck when adding new MD's till changed...but that's good to know... Thank you...  is there a script under /bin that will help me re-establish the media mappings for the MD? 

when i goto to /pubic on moonxx  there is nothing there also

-emac

[emachala]

I can get Media to play  via MD switching from floor plan from core to MD...  Ive reformated probably 7 times now and I've done web-install / dvd installer also couple times on desktop... web-install gets me up and running perfect or best... all except this problem exactly the same ever time...   media can be browsed  but not played on MD's...  Don't know why this happens every time...  I only have a few movies on here... Is there not a way to allow all the symlinks to be remade? 

[emachala]

Are there any logs i can look at to see if there is a problems with MD symlinks  or any problems when its started?
Really don't want to have to always use floorplan to move media from core to MD i want to play on....

 Adding more MD's to see what happens but all my MD's are the same so ...

[emachala]

Still No Joy... Ive lost count of how many times ive reinstalled...  Im properly setup and Media directors start right up without doing anything...  But MD's stll won't play media from media browser.... 

Ive noticed on the MD... that it gives a Message like: "There are some Devices on this Media Director that did not start.... Functionality ...(cant see rest)  and it has a Ok button.


So i watched more carefully when MD is booting  it goes by fast...

But i can see that 1 thing on start is red Failed...

Right before that failed i wrote down this i saw...

"mount.nfs an incorrect mount option was specified"

then i see something about automounter...  mount none something so fast  [Failed]...


Whats my mount.nfs supposed to look like so i can check it?


Thanks ~emac~

[sambuca]

The log files are kept in /var/log/pluto on the core. The main log file to check out is the DCERouter.log file. For the MDs, you should look in usr/pluto/diskless/<md id>/var/log/pluto. The log file to look for here is the <id>_Xine_Player.log

Well right now this is what ive got on the tail when i try to play a movie on MD

Can you log on to the MD (do "sudo ssh moonXX") from the core, and check if the file is actually available from the MD?

Nothing is listed...  Ive checked every time I reformat core  i get to this directory listing of folders....{audio  avwizard-sounds  documents  games  pictures  pvr  samples  tts  videos}  and the rest are empty inside  ... This is why flicker saver fades in any out from black showing no images cause nothing in pictures folder... why i have no sound in avwizard no greeeting.mpg or testsound.... etc...  think all my problems will be solved by fixing this ...   well mostly so that i can get basic functionality...

really can't figure out why nothing goes wrong with setup... everything is tested with 0710... when im doing the distro update  i notice a binary that can connect and can connect to one but it has no key  and it says useing older version is that okay?



currently moved into my new house that is entirely wire just for linuxmce ... all zwave sockets, switches, thermostats... 7 MD's addition 8 audio zones.. wedt366/7970 glore, and with the help of tk probably a lot of wall mount POE touchscreen orbiters etc.. tested all with 0710 besides POE... and have the core built in the moving box from condo... got all the MD, sockets switches and thermostats all working on there too....  I just really wanna get 0810 working instead of unpacking the 0710...  To damn stubborn...  but figure i can start throughly testing 0810 with a heavy load of devices etc


Thanks

Still nothing... Can anyone please explain  how i can setup auto mounter again or run it manually  on mds...   i have everything on my NAS \\00:00:00:00:81:02\Storage   ?



-emac

[emachala]

Obviously  something is afoot with the disk-less creation ... everything is fine till disk less creation  after first is setup  i start to get media director functionality limited report...


After days of trying to correct the issue with install or disklessCreateTBZ.sh

for any also having this issue  where you are using the work around of using floorplan to have to play media


what I had to do was


First i have my data on NAS so i terminal into core and check for device for my nas which is 30

Code:

Lets establish if the standard linkages for media drives are in place. First get the device number of your drive. Now from a terminal session:

# ls -al /mnt/device

You should see a list of disk devices in there that are just a number. One number per device, and one of the should be the number you noted above. For instance if the device number is 30, then....

drwxrwxrwx  root root   0    2009-08-15 20:15  30

The first bit are the permissions and ownership - check these are the same as above. (drwxrwxrwx root root) Now...

Since i know the /mnt/device/30/video/etc  contains all my movies and they are there  and works and ios already mounted on core but not on MD so im good here..

--------------
Then after using Wiki for preping for Logging Into Media Directors

Code:

sudo su -

# ssh moonXX

# cd /mnt/device

is your device there? mines not

# mount /mnt/device/30


I then needed to symlink (i know it a bad idea to mess with... but there are none setup on my MD's so adding basically i played my media that won't work)

I get File Not Found: /home/public/data/other/Windows Share [28]/Videos/movie.avi...

So i move on MD to /home/public/data...

I have no other... i

# Mkdir other

same for Windows Share

# mkdir windows/ Share/ [30]

then finally

ln

# ln -s /mnt/device/30/Video/ /home/public/data/other/Windows\ Share\ \[30\]/


 

This added my symlinks for my movies and i can now at least manually get MD's with all major functions working i can see
