I have set:

PATH=/opt/bin:/opt/sbin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
# Folder with Debian Squeeze
CHROOT_DIR=/tmp/mnt/OPTWARE/debian
# CHROOT_DIR=/mnt/OPTWARE/debian
# Some folder outside of sandbox, will be mounted to /mnt folder in Debian
# Leave commented if not needed
EXT_DIR=/tmp/mnt

And i want to scan all under /mnt

Its correct? THX

Click to expand...
Remove minidlna db
rm -r /opt/minidlna
Start server again
If it's not working, try to reboot and put only one directory not all /mnt
 
Getting an error right from the start:


cannot find package http:goo.gl/5Ltmig
 
No subtitles

Hi All,
I've just installed version 1.1.4, it's working fine but I have no subtitles.

I am using my ipad with 2 different applications (oPlayer and CineXPlayer) and none of them can see the .srt files. I've tried from my windows laptop and same thing.
It's the first time i use mindlna, so can not tell if it works with previous versions.

Any help would be appreciated as subtitles are very important for me.

Thank you.
Bye

Jan  1 01:00:48 kernel: JBD: Spotted dirty metadata buffer (dev = sda1, blocknr = 0). There's a risk of filesystem corruption in case of system crash.

I tried to check it with e2fsck, but i cant umount it complete, even with umount -l /dev/sda1

can it be because of the swap file?

first i stopped ...debians99 stop with twice, then i wanted to umount, not going, so with option -l but still then e2fsck say sda1 is in use

by the way, is the error in the code something serious?

oh and if i begin to send some files via ftp for the first time after a reboot of AC87 to the dev:
