The start script does indeed take a minute to start it up. As for the stop script not working all the time, change the command to do a kill -9 instead of just kill and it should work.

I don't believe that can be changed in the linux version currently (lots of things are hard-coded for the alpha).

The ffmpegs themselves don't interfere, AirVideo installs its ffmpeg in /boot/packages/ffmpeg and hard references this version (via the test.properties file that is passed as a parameter). All the libraries referenced by both PS3 Media Server (I used a tutorial that was posted here, and it was happening at the end of my go script so it would overwrite the libs installed by unmenu) and AirVideo Server are the same version, except for the x264 lib (the new AirVideo requires the newer one, the old AirVideo alpha doesn't require it, but is very slow when being used). The changes in full are (2 URLs/filenames/MD5s, the ./configure.orig.fixed parameters, and the version verification info): There were no modifications to any file other than the package file, with the exception of deleting the ffmpeg which would only have to be done at a version upgrade. I'm not sure how to go about that as part of the package script as it's a custom ffmpeg and doesn't appear to properly output the version number and I'm not very well versed in the packages (I can change names and numbers, but adding steps is beyond me currently).

I spoke too soon about it not working. I forgot I had also installed ps3 media sever, and that was installing older libs (specifically an older x264). The changes I made appear to work once I disable the installation of ps3 media server. AirPlay is working GREAT! I also made a change to the ffmpeg compile flags based on what some users were saying on the air video forums (lib faac isn't necessary anymore)

Tried installing alpha 6, didn't work. Was running alpha 4 successfully. Did the following: Set the package to not install at reboot. Rebooted unraid. Installed the GCC package. Deleted /boot/packages/ffmpeg Changed the following parts of the package config: It will play files (already converted or natively supported), but not convert them (neither live nor offline). It WILL generate thumbnails, but very slowly, though which is interesting.

Alpha 6 was just released that has some worthwhile features (AirPlay!) and speed improvements. I might try to see if I can get it working later tonight.

I had originally had AirVideo on my Mac and everything was working fine. I then switched it to my unRaid box and I was having the problem that it was acting really slow on my iPad - thumbnails weren't showing up, live conversion took over 20 minutes to start. I tried force quitting the app and restarting it, didn't fix it. I tried rebooting my unRaid server and that didn't fix it. Tried different Java versions, and basically a lot of messing around. Long story short, what worked was restarting the iPad. Then everything was working 100% perfect. So if you're having problems, don't just assume it's the unRaid/AirVideo server Thanks to all those that have contributed to making this easy to use and install!

I had to do as Kryspy in order to get it to run as well. Additionally I needed to edit the command that was starting it and add -Djava.awt.headless=true \ in order to get my album artwork to show up. cd `dirname $0` ${JAVA} -Xmx${SUBSONIC_MAX_MEMORY}m \ -Djava.awt.headless=true \ -Dsubsonic.home=${SUBSONIC_HOME} \ -Dsubsonic.host=${SUBSONIC_HOST} \ -Dsubsonic.port=${SUBSONIC_PORT} \ -Dsubsonic.contextPath=${SUBSONIC_CONTEXT_PATH} \ -Dsubsonic.defaultMusicFolder=${SUBSONIC_DEFAULT_MUSIC_FOLDER} \ -Dsubsonic.defaultPodcastFolder=${SUBSONIC_DEFAULT_PODCAST_FOLDER} \ -Dsubsonic.defaultPlaylistFolder=${SUBSONIC_DEFAULT_PLAYLIST_FOLDER} \ -jar subsonic-booter-jar-with-dependencies.jar > ${LOG} 2>&1 &

That was indeed the problem - thanks! Interestingly enough, all the sata ports were set to IDE instead of AHCI, but only the final two were actually coming up as IDE.

I added an additional hard drive (1.5 TB WD EARS drive, the one where you have to put the jumper over pins 7 & 8, at least according to what I've read on these forums). All of my previous drives have been going to /dev/sd* - but this one decided to be /dev/hdc. I do have one other device that's /dev/hdd and that's my cache drive which is connected via IDE, all the other drives are SATA. Isn't that what determines if it's sd or hd - if it's via SATA or IDE? Is the fact that this new disk showed up as HD something for concern?

Any advice or corrections to my understanding would be much appreciated! system_log.txt

Are you trying to change it from the terminal or using the web interface? Changing it from the web interface has always stuck for me.

I believe you can map a network drive to one of your unraid's shares and there's an option to log in with different credentials. If you have this drive reconnect at startup your users will never need to know about the user name/password.

Shipping does not appear to be free for me (Madison, WI) - they want $8.40 for Ground Shipping of one drive.

Thank you. It's working fine with your timezone file. Indeed, thank you - the central timezone file works!

Send a PM to limetech... Point him to this post. I'm sure he will appreciate knowing the files don't work properly. I e-mailed and PMd last week, haven't received a response yet.
