can anyone help me?
best regards

I had a similar problem, in that the flash player (in browser) loads, but only with text.

in the subsonic/transcode directory I have the following symlinks:

ffmpeg -> /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg
lame -> /usr/local/bin/lame

So now I can stream video, but it's still shady. I have to let it process on the server side or else it'll stop a few seconds in. (this is at reduced bitrate). Haven't looked too much into yet. But when I start a video I see it working on the server, then after a while I can play the video again and it goes further before it stops. But the audio is really low.

me i have copied all the mac, flac and lame in the /subsonic/transcode folder.

and it stiff not work!

i really don't understand this error:

Code: Select all

[2011-02-11 14:43:45,728] WARN FFmpegParser - Error when parsing metadata in /mnt/RAID5/films/series/Kaamelott/Livre II/kaa2e1-zbc.avi
java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/var/subsonic/transcode/ffmpeg": java.io.IOException: error=2, No such file or directory

and i don't find anything...

in a terminal, if you type ffmpeg what do you get?

Can you post a long listing of all files in your /var/subsonic/transcode

make sure they have the correct permissions and are executable.

You mention you copied mac, flac and lame to the folder but you didnt mention ffmpeg. The error message is telling you that ffmpeg cannot be found in that directory.

ffmpeg return:

i done a symlink for ffmpeg

Your symlink for ffmpeg is wrong. Subsonic is looking for ffmpeg but yours is ffmpeg-0.6.1_3,1

create the symlink as ffmpeg like
ln -s /var/db/pkg/ffmpeg-0.6.1_3,1 /var/subsonic/transcode/ffmpeg

thx baaldemon

i've changed my symlink for this:

Code: Select all

freenas:/var/subsonic/transcode# ls -la

drwxrwxrwx  2 root  wheel     512 Feb 11 20:24 .

-rwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel    8096 Feb 10 17:54 mac

but it doesn't work....

Doesnt look like the version of ffmpeg you are linking to is installed properly. Reinstall ffmpeg and I would suggest linking to the executable in either /usr/bin/ or /usr/local/bin/ after installing a working ffmpeg. Until you get a working version of ffmpeg subsonic will not be able to use it.

Ok so it looks like you're on FreeNAS...


So you might want to

Code: Select all

cd /usr/ports/multimedia/ffmpeg
make install clean


You might have to do a pkg_deinstall or pkg_delete first...


Then, in your /../subsonic/transcode/ directory, you want to do this:

Code: Select all

ln -s /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg ffmpeg


ln -s /dir/to/link/to /link/to/be/created

Hopefully that'll get you up and running gl

Reinstall FFmpeg... your is a broken.

Code: Select all

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libavdevice.so.1: Undefined symbol "shmctl"

ihave installed, re installed re, re ,re installed ffmpeg

but got the same problem....

Code: Select all

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libavdevice.so.1: Undefined symbol "shmctl"

when i have installed ffmpeg for the first time, it has installed lots of others packages like this:

libGL-7.4.4
libGLU-7.4.4
libX11-1.3.3_1,1
libXau-1.0.5
libXdamage-1.1.2
libXdmcp-1.0.3

libXfixes-4.0.4
libXxf86vm-1.1.0
libdrm-2.4.12_1
libiconv-1.13.1_1
libogg-1.2.2,4
libpthread-stubs-0.3_3
libtheora-1.1.1_2
libvorbis-1.3.2,3
libvpx-0.9.5
libxcb-1.7

i really don't understand.....
and yes, i'm on freenas 0.7.1

please help

ok i solved it

by installing a new version of freenas (0.7.2) and installing again ffmpeg

now all works perfectly!

thanks a lot!
