 Posted: Fri Jan 02, 2009 5:01 pm Post subject: Java PS3 media server |
 |
|
Hi,
just found this upnp media server to stream stuff to the ps3. It solves many issues of mediatomb (stream of 5.1 sound). Transcoding is automatic and works really nice (noproblem seen with mkv transcoding). You can even pause and fast forward on transcoded media (which I was unable to do with mediatomb+ffmpeg transcoding).
So for the interested check it out: http://code.google.com/p/ps3mediaserver/.
Would be nice to see an ebuild for this!
Have fun... |

very interesting, i just setup mediatomb a couple days ago.
i used the Gentoo-wiki instructions and it seems to be working pretty good so far, the video thumbnailing bit goes a long way.
but i'll still definitely look into this, as mediatomb is "ok" but not great... i liked fuppes a bit better (less config) but it seems to be a dead project now (last update was like June 0 .
how is video playback? all media play?
w/ mediatomb currently, some of my movies just don't play. the ps3 shows a black screen that never turns into the movie. I'm not sure what the issue is as all the movies are encoded in the exactly same manner (XVID + mp3 in an AVI container). |

I tried a few movies. For every file you will always have the possibility to play a transcoded version of it. So if the original version doesnt play, you can just pick the transcoded one and it should just work fine.
It seems that it should be able to insert subtitles as well. Unfortunatly this didn't work for me. I will have to take a closer look to what the problem is.
edit: subtitles work just fine if you deactivate ASS/SSA subtitles! |

Do you have an init.d script for starting and stopping at boot? |

I have created scripts, after digging around the net and modifying others.
/etc/init.d/pms
| Code: |
#!/sbin/runscript
# Copyright 1999-2007 Gentoo Foundation
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
depend() {
before net
use logger dns
provide pms
}
start() {
ebegin "Starting PMS Playstation Multimedia Server"
install -o root -g root -m 755 -d $PIDDIR
start-stop-daemon \
--start \
--user "$PMSUSER" \
--make-pidfile \
--pidfile "$PMSDPID" \
--chdir /opt/pms/ \
--exec /opt/pms/PMS.sh \
--background \
--stdout /var/log/pms/stdout.txt \
--stderr /var/log/pms/stderr.txt \
eend $?
}
stop() {
ebegin "Stopping PMS Playstation Multimedia Server"
start-stop-daemon \
--stop \
--quiet \
--pidfile $PMSDPID
eend $?
}
|
/etc/conf.d/pms
| Code: |
PMSUSER=pms
PMSGROUP=pms
PMS_HOME=/opt/pms
PIDDIR="$PMS_HOME"
PMSDPID=$PIDDIR/pms.pid

Small update for startup script, based on above one, to launch in console mode (no gui) :
| Code: |
#!/sbin/runscript
# Copyright 1999-2010 Gentoo Foundation
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
# $Header: $
depend() {
before net
use logger dns
provide ps3
}
start() {
ebegin "Starting PMS Playstation Multimedia Server"
install -o root -g root -m 755 -d $PIDDIR
start-stop-daemon --verbose --start --user "$PMSUSER" --make-pidfile --pidfile "$PMSDPID" --chdir /opt/pms/ \
--exec "$EXECBIN" console > /dev/null &
eend $?
}
stop() {
ebegin "Stopping PMS Playstation Multimedia Server"
start-stop-daemon stop --quiet --pidfile $PMSDPID
eend $?
}

You were missing a "--" before stop in the updated script
| Code: | #!/sbin/runscript
# Copyright 1999-2010 Gentoo Foundation

# $Header: $
depend() {

Tsmuxer does not work for me too.
I get the following error in my ps3mediaserver debug.log file for tsmuxer
| Code: | | Process /var/log//ps3mediaserver/linux/tsMuxeR has a return code of 134! Maybe an error occured... check the log file |
When I manually have tsmuxer open a mkv file cencoded with x264 and ac3, I get the following error:
| Code: | tsMuxeR: ../vodTransport/src/matroskaParser.cpp:134: virtual void vodcore::ParsedH264TrackData::extractData(vodcore::AVPacket*, uint8_t*, int): Assertion `curPos == end' failed.
|
It seems that there is something wrong with tsmuxer. |
