One more thing that I wanted was the ability to simply run a command from anywhere, as any user, and start the service. Here is what the first few lines of my PMS.sh file look like: #!/bin/sh Comment out the DIRNAME=`dirname $CMD` line and add a line like DIRNAME="/usr/local/share/pms/" right below it. In order to do this we are going to edit the /usr/local/share/pms/PMS.sh file. I also wanted to specify my config file, instead of having it use one from my home folder. One of the things I specifically wanted was to be able to run this as a service on boot. Find the StreamExtensions= line and avi to the end, so it will look like this: StreamExtensions=wma,asf,avi One additional change was made to the /usr/local/share/pms/renderers/nf file to allow avi streaming to the XBox 360. The defaults for the rest of the settings should be fine, but take a look through the other settings if you wish.
Obviously you will want to change the folders and network_interface settings to match your setup. Double check your settings and apply them to the new file! Variable names are often changed, new variables are added, and old ones may be removed. If you are upgrading from a previous version of ps3mediaserver, don’t just copy your old config file. mkv files, and disable forced subtitles: chapter_support = true Optionally, edit the following settings to enable chapters on. Now go to the directory you just created with the ln command above, ( /usr/local/share/pms/ in my case), and edit the file PMS.conf, changing the following settings: minimized = trueįolders = /data/movies,/data/music,/data/pics Below are what my folder permissions look like. The default permissions should be correct.

Next, we will follow Geoff Hodder’s advice and create a symlink from /usr/local/share/pms to the current version of pms, which we can change in the future when upgrading, making the upgrade process easier! ln -s /usr/local/share/pms-1.90.0 /usr/local/share/pmsĭouble check the ownership here on the pms-1.90.0 folder. I like to put it in my /usr/local/share directory so that I can run it as a service in the background or as a non-privileged user.

Rpm -Uvh libmediainfo0-0.7.64-1.x86_64.CentOS_6.rpmįinally, we are ready to install ps3mediaserver! Go grab the latest ps3mediaserver package from the ps3mediaserver download page, and extract it somewhere. You can get RPM packages for libzen and libmediainfo from the MediaInfo Download Page, just select the appropriate distro and architecture, download the package, then install like this: wget
You can skip this step if you like, but not all the features will work! We will also want to install libzen and libmediainfo for some additional features. If you are having problems installing vlc, because of version conflicts with libupnp, add the line exclude=libupnp to your /etc//epel.repo, in the main section If you wish to stream web content, you will also want to install vlc: yum install vlc Next, we need to install some prerequisite packages: yum install gcc mplayer ffmpeg mencoder java-1.7.0-openjdk ImageMagick Instructions for installing RPMForge can be found at the CentOS RPMForge Howto, but it basically consists of the following: rpm -import Installation was fairly easy, however the documentation to make it work how I wanted on an RPM based distro was conflicting, spread across multiple sites, and somewhat lacking…įirst, we need to add the rpmforge repo, in order to install the prerequesites with yum.

I specifically wanted something that could run without a GUI on a headless machine as a service/daemon if necessary, that would support an XBox 360 and various Android devices.

So, after comparing available packages, I decided to give the PS3 media server a try. Previously I had been using Fuppes, but the lack of active development and some other quirks made me re-think what I wanted to use. So after recently rebuilding one of the servers in my dogghouse, I realized that I hadn’t installed a uPNP/DLNA AV media server.
