reyrios, manwithaplan, gotosleep, and others...

I have the latest ffmpeg v0.6.1 compiled for Linux in my Subsoniuc unRaid tutorial (download transcode.zip). That might help on a Mac since it's unix based, but I can't test for you nor claim to know much about Macs.

I was also having the same issue with access denied on some mp4 files. It had to do with multi-channel audio. I decided to not down-sample the audio with ffmpeg and this made all my files playable. I use the following in my mp4 > flv transcode string...

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -v 0 -ss %o -async 1 -i %s -f flv -b %bk -s %wx%h -acodec copy -

I tried your transcoding code but it didn't work for me. I also noticed, the majority of my files are m4v, but some play and some not. Also, I have a few mp4 that do not play. Maybe you're into something with the audio stuff. I can send some sample videos so maybe it can be tested.

[reyrios]

This is on a Mac Mini 10.6.6 Intel. Again, some mv4 play ok and some don't.

since enabling https I have not been able to get my android app to connect to my server. I get an error saying "Didn't understand the reply. Please check the server address"

[deejay2302]

The same problem as in version 4.3. The search function does not find my songs!
Another problem is, it should come. The covers look very bad quality. They can be partially read or barely know. Sindre if you ever have time or we could even contact other than here on the page, I might even give you access to my server and you you look at this.
I use a home server and he is not 24 hours online , I have to know a time when you access it.

I have currently indexed circa 177,000 (circa 1.3 terabyte) Songs in Subsonic. Not even the half of the songs will be displayed from version 4.3 even though the songs are tagged properly. Now I've installed the version 4.1 beta 1 and it has not improved.


Video to Problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVyWIivdwUU

PS: One more problem. Subsonic runs and the Tray Icon was red after some times. Status: Running. Auto-start. I can not see: Started on, Memory Used, and Server adress. I have the problem since Version 4.2. Same problem on 4.4 Beta 1.

Edit: 2 Errors in my Logfile says:

ERROR LuceneSearchService Failed to execute Lucene search.

Sindre,
I've noticed that browsing of directories containing large numbers of items can be slow. With audio files its not so much an issue because its only noticeable when a dir has 50+ songs in it. I only have one dir like that.

However, with video folders I've noticed ffmpeg slams the proc whenever a folder is browsed. I've noticed this for a while now, though I don't know which version it began. I've got some directories containing seasons of tv shows and it can take 5 seconds or longer to display folder contents--all the while ffmpeg tops out the proc. I'm guessing your using ffmpeg to gather meta data from the video files? I've tried disabling the 'duration' display for browsing under personal settings, but ffmpeg still kicks off.

My question is this: What is ffmpeg doing while browsing video directories?

Thanks

[sindre_mehus]

Yes, I use ffmpeg to get metadata from video files, kicking off one process for each file (but caching the result for some time).

I haven't found a java library capable of doing the same as ffmpeg, unfortunately.

[linuxman]

Sindre I have been having problems the last 3 versions I've loaded. The subsonic java processes seem to be hanging a lot like back when the bug was causing hangs in the server on tomcat. Well instead of waiting on the tomcat fix I started using your standalone for fedora/redhat and had no issues till recently.

How do I debug java errors with the included jetty server? I can't really find any information on how or where to find a core dump.

[stozher]

Sindre,

Move chat cache from "/tmp/subsonic/ehcache" to "/var/tmp/subsonic/ehcache". System always deleted "/tmp/subsonic" after reboot... "/var/tmp" cleaned only if no disk space. Permission of "/var/tmp" is the same as "/tmp" and no problem for all users to create and write in "/var/tmp".

[WalterSear]

Does this version address the server not staying online? How soon can we expect this to be addressed?

Is there a stable version? Anything from 4.0 onward does not stay up for more than a few days for me.

[GJ51]

I have 3 Windows servers running 24/7, rock solid stable for months. Subsonic is not your problem Walter. Version 4.4 beta 1 on Windows is rock solid stable. If you think that contiuing to whine is going to fix your problem, your going to be sadly dissappointed. I've already told you what your problems are, but you refuse to listen. No one here can help you.

[WalterSear]

If anyone wants to draw their own conclusions, there's a thread with a number of users posting their symptoms, and looking for help resolving this here.

[GJ51]

OK - Some of you are having issues. Some think it's Subsonic, I think it's individual configuration issues. I have 3 servers running on Server 2008 code base, which from all I've read is identical to the Win 7 core. All 3 of my servers were updated from 4.3 to 4.4 beta1 without any problems. All 3 run 24/7 and never crash.

Some of you are on Win 7 which, I guess could be a bit different from Server 08.

So let's experiment. I just set up a spare box with 32 bit Win 7 and installed it on an Athlon dualcore PC that I will leave on as long as any of you are interested. It is now online at http://garyj51.subsonic.org U & P = guest.

Let's see how long it takes to crash.

The music folder is on a server share so indexing and home screen random view may take a while to generate.

This install is version 4.3, I will be happy to do the upgrade to 4.4 beta 1 whenever it is determined that this configuration is stable.

I would like feedback as to how long you think I should leave this online in its current configuration before we reach consensus as to whether or not it is stable. I will then do the upgrade to 4.4 beta1, then reconfigure with 64 bit Win 7 and repeat. I realize that this may take as long as a month or more to run its course, but I know many of you have had this issue for longer than that, so I am willing to donate the use of my equipment and electric chgs. to determine if your problems are repeatable. Scientific method and all that. I'm only a windows guy, so I'm sorry I can't do this for other platforms yet. Maybe after we run this little experiment, I'll delve into Linix or something else depending on feedback. If there is anyone else capable of doing the same demo/experiment for other platforms, please jump in.

[linuxman]

Are you some kind of idiot? It takes use and a load normally to cause something to crash and just because you loaded this on a system and have it up doesn't mean it will crash.

There is a java library or process that has a bug somewhere in the code in the last 3 or 4 releases that is causing problems across different OS platforms.

It has now started completely taking my linux server down and its a whole lot harder to take a linux kernel down than windows so its a pretty mean memory leak or bug present somewhere.

[GJ51]

Yes, I must be an idiot, as I now only have 4 servers running SS online that have never crashed. By the way, did you read the part where I stated that I only use windows and deffer to others regarding other platforms. I also haven't heard any complaints from Stozher whose had his site up for quite some time now. Nor can I remember the Subsonic demo site ever crashing.

But I guess none of us get enough load or use to cause the crash you want us to help you fix. Not to mention the nine other sites that have given me access that are always up when I visit.

Boy are we stupid.

Pardon my ignorance.

http://garyj51.subsonic.org U & P = guest.

Put all the load on it you want. That's why I set it up on my time and expense to provide YOU with a platform that might help identify YOUR problem IF it exists.

You're right, I am an idiot.
