wildchild22 Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 First off I am a novice just fiquered how to get this up and running and have tested it and its 100% perfect. This is how I done it 1) go to http://www.lundman.net/wiki/index.php/Llink:linux up top there is a llink-2.2.0-linux_x86.tar.gz download it and extract it to your flash drive (there should be a folder called llink as well as other files not in a folder such as bzroot 2)download http://www.editpadpro.com/editpadlite.html then open llink.conf and change the part where it talks about the root device find the one that doesnt have a # infront of it and chaneg it to read like the example below ROOT|path=/mnt/user/HDTV/ (***this is an example your share will be exactly the same except called whatever you call it mine is labeled HDTV) 3) open msdos prompt and type telnet tower (then enter) then root as username with no password then type cd .. (make sure it is cd with a space then .. then enter) then type this in cd /boot/llink ( enter) then type llink (enter) and you should see it started then you can type exit and you will see the telnet session ended then just fire up your popcorn hour or other nmt and you should see llink-daemon as as server Quote Link to comment
wildchild22 Posted March 27, 2009 Author Share Posted March 27, 2009 to get it to autostart look below if you want to know where your shares are stored they are in the mnt directory on the flash. just telnet in and cd .. cd /mnt ls then you will see a list you can add more than one in the llink.conf I just added one to verify it works.(the one called HDTV in the above example) Quote Link to comment

wildchild22 Posted March 27, 2009 Author Share Posted March 27, 2009 okay I now have it working from the startup you need to add cd /boot/llink echo "./llink" | at now + 1 minute to the go script below is a copy of my go script from the config directory on the flash in between the asterisks ***** #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & cd /boot/llink echo "./llink" | at now + 1 minute sleep 30 for i in /dev/md* do blockdev --setra 2048 $i done ******* Quote Link to comment
bill_in_socal Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 In the llink.conf file, I actually see two un-commented lines pertaining to ROOT. They are: ROOT|path=/Users/lundman/ftp/data/ ROOT|HTTP=http://www.hd-trailers.net/blog/feed/|path=xtrailers Which one do I change - or both? Many thanks. Quote Link to comment
wildchild22 Posted March 28, 2009 Author Share Posted March 28, 2009 change the one with the ftp in it. I also put a # in front of the hd-trialers as I didnt want it showing on my NMT. Quote Link to comment
bill_in_socal Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I'm having a problem with llink: If I enable my path in the conf file - ROOT|path=/mnt/user/Movies/ The llink menu page does not display (the Aires theme page). If I comment out my path and enable the default HTTP path, I do get the llink menu page. I can confirm via Telnet that I have the correct path to my Movies share, but for some reason when enabled, it appears to kill the webserver. You can also test this by going to //Tower:8001 I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Also, do you know the command to stop llink without rebooting? Cheers, Bill Quote Link to comment
wildchild22 Posted March 29, 2009 Author Share Posted March 29, 2009 # # SSDP is the mulsticast discovery protocol used by the # Buffalo Networked DVD Player, and hopefully something # similar by the others. In theory you should # not need to change anything here if you want to use it. # # Example line with all options is: # SSDP|ON|multicast=239.255.255.250|port=1900|bindif=0 # # Due to a bug in lion, you might have to specify bindif in reverse # order. If you want 192.168.10.4, you bindif=4.10.168.192. This option # is usually not required. Remove if unsure. # # The default is: SSDP|ON # # When we receive SSDP broadcast, and there might be a lot # on your network, select the "match" filter by which we # will recognise our DVD Player. In theory this should work # for all MyiBox devices. If your report something different # please email me for updates. # # Example line with all options is: # USN|match=*myiBoxUPnP*SyabasSTB*|pattern=192.168.*:* # # The default is: USN|match=*myiBoxUPnP*SyabasSTB*|pattern=* # Advanced: # Manually connect and declare ourselves? This should not be needed but # for some situations it could be useful. # For llink running on nmt, it ignores SSDP from own IP, so we alias a new # IP, and force announcement to port 2020. #ANNOUNCE|url=http://127.0.0.1:2020/myiBoxUPnP/description.xml|usn=llink_myiBoxUPnP_SyabasSTB_llink|freq=30 # # The HTTP request port. This is where the DVD player will connect # for the directory listings, as well as the files. # By default, Buffalo's own software uses port 8000, so I use # port 8001 so that both can run at the same time. # The "name" field is what is displayed on the DVDPlayer. # "pin" is only used for "parental" extra authority. All Directories and # files starting with a "." are normally not shown. If a PIN is entered # correctly, these are added to the listing. They are actually text strings. # # NOTE: user and pass is NOT yet implemented! Use bindif to # bind to internal only nic. Patterns are also to come. See bindif note above # # Example line with all options is: #HTTP|port=8001|bindif=0|pin=1234|name=llink-daemon|user=Syabasi|pass=myIBox # # The default is: HTTP|port=8002|pin=1234|name=llink-daemon # # The SKIN used for all directory listings. Not that there are many. # It will send "head.html", followed by the "TYPE" files below, and # finally "tail.html". If you do something neat, please send it to me. # # SIZE_TYPE=human|bytes|none # # When replacing LLINK_FILE_SIZE, should it use human (5GB, 350MB) or # bytes (1234576) or none (space). Note if you want to have details in # the skin, use LLINK_DETAIL_SIZE which is always "bytes". # # PAGE_SIZE sets the number of lines a listing should send, by default. # You can not set it if you want everything in one long list. Note that # clients can always request from/to, which over-rides this value. # # PASSES specifies how many times should it loop over a directory listing, # usually 1 is sufficient, but if you are doing fancy things... it tags on # PASS number infront of the file names. Ie, head.html->2head.html, # line_dir.html->2line_dir.html. First pass is still head.html. (not 1head.html). # # Example line with all options is: # SKIN|path=./skin/default/|MaxNameLength=40 # # The default is: # # My own hack job #SKIN|path=./skin/moon720/|MaxNameLength=50|SIZE_TYPE=human # # New Skin from Syabas SKIN|path=./skin/aquarius_720/|PAGE_SIZE=10|SIZE_TYPE=human # # Skin by PoPEye #SKIN|path=./skin/kamaishi_skies/|PAGE_SIZE=10|SIZE_TYPE=human|PASSES=2 #RAND|FREQ=300|MAX=2 # # Skin by dc11ab #SKIN|path=./skin/blackskin720/|PAGE_SIZE=10|SIZE_TYPE=human #RAND|FREQ=300|MAX=31 # #Skin by Mikesv #SKIN|path=./skin/nmt/|PAGE_SIZE=10|SIZE_TYPE=human # # New Skin from NC #SKIN|path=./skin/clterm720/|PAGE_SIZE=10|SIZE_TYPE=human # # TYPE # # Define types of movies.

wildchild22 Posted March 29, 2009 Author Share Posted March 29, 2009 above is my working llink conf file. To stop llink go to cd .. cd /boot/llink then killall llink is the command Quote Link to comment
bill_in_socal Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Thanks much! I'll keep working at it. Quote Link to comment
bill_in_socal Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Just wanted to report that llink is working great on unRAID server now. One of the movie files in my share was causing llink to choke. Many of my movie files are ISO format, and llink is not particularly friendly with ISO's. Luckily the files in the ISO are presented in an expanded listing, then I typically pick the largest VOB and play it. This means no DVD menu though. Haven't tried playing unexpanded rar files yet. Thanks for the great tutorial on setting up llink. Quote Link to comment
wildchild22 Posted March 30, 2009 Author Share Posted March 30, 2009 I just updated the conf file before I had /mnt/user/HDTV I changed it to just /mnt/user that way all shares show. I also adjusted my go script with cd /boot/llink echo "./llink" | at now + 1 minute this allows it to always boot and start the server. I was having trouble at times after rebooring that I could not always see the llink-daemon now it is working. One last side note if you want to reboot or turn off server make sure you are not straming any files with the nmt and use a browser to stop the array and then hit power down or reboot. I find if you shut down with telnet it causes the server to start a parity check. Quote Link to comment
stchas Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 @wild: I'm trying to set up llink on unRAID as well. When I start llink, I don't "see" the llink-daemon on the NMT (PCH-A110) as a "Media Source" (i.e., it did not look like a share in the Network Browser). After some research, I found I could connect the llink-daemon as a "Web Service" using "http://<unRAID Box IP Address>:<http Port Number>" Did you have to do the same thing to establish the NMT connection?

wildchild22 Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 I see llink daemon on my nmt when I start the server. It is listed the same place s you would see the myihome server and and samba share or upnp servers Quote Link to comment
