    I am sorry if there is something basic I should have understood, but have not, but I am trying  :)

     

    I have installed the binhex-makemkv app.

    But what ever I try I get "The program can't find any usable optical drives." message.

     

    This is the drive I try to include:

    45514219_unraiddisker.PNG.72ca3b3a3bd652f7101c2a365beee9b7.PNG

     

    Setup:

    Repository: binhex/arch-makemkv

    Network Type: Bridge

    Console shell command: Shell

    Privileged: ON

    Host port 1: 6080

    AppData Config Path: /mnt/user/appdata/binhex-makemkv

     

    Have also tried to add all of the devices I could find related to the internal blue-ray

     

    /dev/disk/by-id/ata-PLEXTOR_BD-R_PX-B950SA_2512075_216201500042

    /dev/sr0   (listed in scsi devices)

    /dev/cdrom

    /dev/cdrom0

    /dev/cdrw

    /dev/cdwriter

    /dev/cdwriter0

     

    Have also tried these, but I then get an error:

    --device/dev/sr0 is not an absolute path

    --device=/dev/sr0 is not an absolute path

    --device /dev/sr0 is not an absolute path

     

     

    Edit: found the advanced view.

    Have tried to add:

    --device=/dev/sr0

    and

    --device=/dev/sr0 --device=/dev/sg0

    But still with no luck.

     

     

    Edit 2:

    Have logged in on the terminal (?) for the first time and ran:

     

    lsscsi -g

    [1:0:0:0] cd/dvd PLEXTOR BD-R PX-B950SA 1.01 /dev/sr0 /dev/sg8

     

    lsscsi -l

    Have tried the following under the advanced tab:

    Extra Parameters:

    What am I missing?

     

    I'm in exactly the same boat.... :(

    Thanks for the debugging help.  I can't explain why this works at this time.  If the issue gets reported more often we'll have to dive into kernel source to see what's going on.  It appears you have only 1GB RAM, that's right at the minimum we recommend.  Probably related to this.

    No problem - appreciate you looking into this.

    Interesting. 1G RAM, no cache, no parity, but apparently running dockers.

     

     @rymalco What dockers do you run?

    All the debug info from a fresh install of 6.6.6 - explains invalid parity. Cache not assigned, and not running dockers - it would be challenging with the RAM limitations!

  5. I'm having the same issue as OP. Trying to upgrade from 6.5.3 to 6.6.6. 

     

    Followed Admin's suggested 4 steps

    Quote

    Plug flash into PC and make a backup: create a folder somewhere, eg, desktop, open flash device, select everything there and drag to the folder.

    Use the USB Flash Creator tool to reformat/reinstall 6.6.0 to your flash device.

    From your backup, drag 'config' folder to your newly prepared flash device, replacing the 'config' folder created there.

    Eject flash and boot server.

    No dice.

    Tried installing 6.6.6 on several other USB drives same issue. Fresh install of 6.5.3 on same USB drives works fine. 

     

    I suppose there is an issue with 6.6.6...

    Shouldn't be necessary to guess and hope about this question. Put it in your PC and see if you can read it.

    Of course...you are right. Doh!

     

    Thanks for your replies; CPU was fried. Luckily a friend had some old gear that has now got up and running my server.

     

    Upside? The new CPU is 64 bit so I get to play with v6.5.2!

     

     

  7. Hi friendly Forum folks,

     

    My trusty unRAID server is usually a sight to behold; a collection of odd computing gear happy in their second or third careers. 

     

    The server died over the weekend. Sad day.

     

    Ancient FSP PSU not working? Confirmed. Replaced with flashy new one. Machine starts; yay! Doesn't boot; boo!

     

    Has something else failed? The MOBO? The CPU? I hope not! I'm rather attached to my 18yr old GA-8SIML MOBO and Pentium 4 Prescott CPU. Has the cheap boot USB died? That would be my preference...

     

    So on to my first dilemma friends - I can't find a 32bit unRAID software download to flash another bootable USB. Can someone point me to where I might find a download link? 

     

    Yours graciously,

  8. okay, finally got it going, i replaced the the two outdated slackware files and the md5 in the .plg with the ones that you posted then manually ran the install from the command line. Everything seems to be good now. Looks like the problem was with the outdated slackware files. It would stop the plugin update from installing after it got to the bad slackware file.

     

    Thanks for your help

     

    Thanks for your solution. Was having the exact same problem...

     

    Cheers all,

     

     

  9. piotrasd,

     

    What I need is a walkthrough of how to get xmltv working un unRAID in order to feed guide data to the tv_grab_na_dd scraper including what needs to be added to the GO script.

     

    xmltv doesn't seem to install under unRAID due to perl dependency issues not compatible with unRAID.

     

    Kryspy

     

    Hi Kryspy! Here is what I had to do to get things running. It's not 100% unRAID, but it works a treat.

     

    For clarity, my TVHEADEND plugin is located in a share called "/mnt/extra/plugins/tvheadend", you'll have to modify according to where you keep yours.

     

    My "go" file has the following addition in it, to install the XMLTV components:

     

    # install the TVHEADEND / XMLTV package and copy the working tv_find_grabbers to /user/bin
        installpkg /boot/xmltv_package/xmltv-0.5.63-i486-1_W-W.txz
        cp /boot/xmltv_package/tv_find_grabbers /usr/bin/tv_find_grabbers
        chmod +x /user/bin/tv_find_grabbers
        /usr/bin/tv_find_grabbers
    

     

    This then sets up the tv_grab_file in /usr/bin and runs the tv_find_grabbers so TVHEADEND knows it exists.

     

    I am using the Windows-based XMLTV utility which grabs my lineup from Schedules Direct and saves it to an XML file.

    I downloaded the XMLTV zip and extracted it to my windows machine's C: drive.

    I then configured the XMLTV program (in Windows) by running:

     

    xmltv tv_grab_na_dd --configure
    

     

    I set it up for my Schedules Direct lineup and then I was ready to grab the actual EPG.

     

    The command I'm using (as I'm in Canada) is:

     

    xmltv tv_grab_na_dd --days 14 --out channels.xml
    

     

    This grabs 14 days of EPG data and saves it to a file called "channels.xml". This file is then copied to /mnt/extra/plugins/tvheadend/epg on my unRAID server. I created a batch file that runs this command and then scheduled a windows task to fire it every day at 5:00AM.

     

    Here's the batch file code:

    REM CHANGE TO WORKING DIRECTORY
    cd c:\
    cd xmltv
    
    REM REMOVE EXISTING XML FILES
    del channels.xml
    del \\unraidbox\xbmc\extra\plugins\tvheadend\epg\channels.xml
    
    REM GENERATE NEW XML FILE
    xmltv tv_grab_na_dd --days 14 --out channels.xml
    
    REM COPY NEW XML TO UNRAID TVHEADEND SHARE
    copy channels.xml \\unraidbox\xbmc\extra\plugins\tvheadend\epg
    
    

     

    Here's the real kicker, you have to change the 'tv_grab_file' to let it know to grab the local file:

     

    I modified /usr/bin/tv_grab_file line '7' to read:

    cat /mnt/extra/plugins/tvheadend/epg/channels.xml
    

     

    So, the tr_grab_file now knows to look directly to my share to find the current XML file.

     

    After I did that, when I clicked on "Save Configuration" under the XMLTV table in TVHEADEND's WEbGUI, it loaded the file, but still was not populating the EPG. I then discovered that I had to go into Channel Configuration and "point" each channel to it's EPG equivalent. This was done by clicking in the XMLTV SOURCE field in the Channels tab of the TVHEADEND webGUI. Once I did that, it extracted a list of the "discovered" channels from my channels.xml file. I matched them all up, hit "Save Configuration" again in the XMLTV GUI and blammo, populated with all kinds of data

     

    I hope this may help you, I know it's not a totally unRAID based solution, but there appears to be no way at the present to get XMLTV running right under unRAID due to PERL dependencies that are missing. I went through weeks of agony over this and the solution I am using now is the "best case" scenario for me.

     

    Cheers,

     

    Km.

     

    Hey Tophicles!

     

    Where did you d/l the

    xmltv-0.5.63-i486-1_W-W.txz

    file?

     

     

  10. https://www.dropbox.com/s/j5jq9oe0yzef9gb/unraid_5.0_media_all.zip

     

    5.0

     

    Enjoy.

     

    Piotrasd, I borrowed all of the firmwares that you gathered.  I will contribute back if I find more that need added.  We all appreciate your work on this, good job man.

     

    Hi mack, I can confirm also that this working brilliantly with my hdhomerun? must be using botez scripts well.

     

    Thanks  8)

     

    Mack - Thanks you legend. Now working for me! ;D

  11. For a complete noob, how much of http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/Installing_Tvheadend_in_unRAID is now relevant?

     

    I see that the new bzimage/root is taken care of:

    unRAID 5.0 (final)

    - with latest TBS driver and media tree

    - added all possible Firmwares which I've found

     

    https://truck.it/p/ybRX086vww

     

    and tvheadend:

     

    but I'm pretty clueless on the others...any help would be greatly appreciated!  :-[

     

    I have taken a few minutes to update this Wiki page with the most relevant links: http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/Installing_Tvheadend_in_unRAID

     

    Thanks Mettbrot, much appreciated.

     

    Decided to take the plunge and attempt a kernel compilation myself and try and muddle my way through. Unfortunately once all the dev packages were installed the telnet session kept kicking me out - just not enough memory in my system . I suppose that is what I should expect when using old bits of tech kicking about the house! :-\

     

    Can someone help a brother out?

     

     

  12. Thanks for your help guys. I have now determined that my USB AVerTV Volar HD PRO is semi supported  :'( and driver not included in kernel:

    http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Afatech_AF9035

     

    I've found some Linux firmware http://palosaari.fi/linux/v4l-dvb/firmware/af9035/ by trawling through this Italian thread (thanks Google translate!!) http://forum.ubuntu-it.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=516182&start=60#p4306227

     

    piotrasd or anyone else out there: are these firmware files (a) applicable and (b) able to be incorporated into the next bzroot/image compilation?

     

    If yes - can you do this for me or point me in the direction of some instructions?  :o

     

    Cheers!

  13. OK - I've trawled through the full length of this thread and still not entirely clear.

     

    I want to keep my apps installed in "/boot/config/plugins/"

    I want to keep app data directories installed in "/mnt/disk1/apps/"

    I have a USB AVerTV Volar HD PRO that I want to use (looks like it is compatible:http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-T_USB_Devices)

     

    So...my understanding derived from spylex's github instructions https://github.com/spylex/tvheadend_unraid:

    [*]I need to copy piotrasd's bzroot/image files into "/boot" (overwriting backed up originals)

    http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=20782.msg261549#msg261549

    [*]I need to copy piotrads's tvheadend installer to "/boot/config/plugins/"

    http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=20782.msg260824#msg260824

    [*]I need to install tvheadend to "/boot/config/plugins/tvheadend"

    [*]I make my "/mnt/disk1/apps/tvheadend" data directory

    [*]I need to make data directory have full permisions for 'nobody'

    [*]I need to create admin user and set password

    [*]I need to start tvheadend

     

    L3-7 can be covered off with the following:

    installpkg /boot/config/plugins/tvheadend/tvheadend-20130831-i686-1PTr.txz
    mkdir -p /mnt/disk1/apps/tvheadend
    chown -R nobody:users /mnt/disk1/apps/tvheadend
    echo "{ \"username\": \"admin\", \"password\": \"admin\" }" > /mnt/disk1/apps/tvheadend/superuser
    sudo -u root tvheadend -c /mnt/disk1/apps/tvheadend -u root -g video -f 2>&1 >/dev/null

     

    The above seemed to work to the point that I can access tvheadend through "tower/9981" however it is not finding any TV Adapters in the Configuration<DVB Inputs<TV Adapters menu.

     

    Can anyone let me know if I have missed a step out along the way? Any help much appreciated!

     

    (I'll leave the go file update query for a later post...!)
