edit: ok ive trnfsered the files and its working fine now!! only problem is that any file with a hyphen '-' in its name will cause the media scanning to break
Sorry, I've been working long days and haven't been able to get on here. I am starting fresh with my router install because it didn't like me swapping hard drives. Maybe this is what I need to get things working.
The library files go in your /opt/usr/lib folder. :)
Ok, your libraries fixed my avi files not being read, but the videos are still populated in the wrong library.
I am going to check out the database that was developed just to make sure that they are really being inserted wrong, or if it is WMP.
Edit: ok, I've figured out why movies are showing under music. The program works on compiling the video library and gets stuck (or the module crashes) while importing a movie (for me it is always Blues Brothers). The remaining movies that haven't been imported are then populated into music since they're in a folder specified in the database, but not assigned a library... I don't know why this is happening, but it is likely related to the previously mentioned file.

Your videos populate correctly... except for those with hyphened names?
cant be sure. sometimes simply adding a new file to the library causes all the files to disappear till i restart the router
sometimes files with a hyphen break the population (meaning when it reaches this file it stops populating, so if the the 4th file out a 100 has a hyphen only 4 will show up in library) ,sometimes files with long names break the population though i havent been able to determine how long exactly does the name have to be to break.
@boke Did you custom-compile libffmpeg too? Maybe this is causing my issues :/
If you have a different ipkg for libffmpeg, please post it, so I can test with that one. Thanks.
Yes I compiled them with Buildroot.
Here are all of the libraries in a zip file.
I'm working on an ipkg install.
I tried using the ones you posted earlier. I was able to import more file types, but the scanner appears to freeze still. I tried compiling them myself using the openwrt svn repo using subversion, but that kept failing for some reason, so I had to grab the ones that I attached from another site :/. I'll give it another go with yours, maybe I'll get lucky.
Thanks!
PS. If you can get the openwrt svn to work, you can compile a package straight from them.
Code:
svn co svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/trunk/
cd trunk/
./scripts/feeds update
./scripts/feeds install -a
make menuconfig
make tools/install
make toolchain/install
make package/ffmpeg/compile
edit: no good... same results Hmmm... weird... i just noticed that my h264 .mp4 files are being sent as .m4a files.
Not working. if I do it manualy I use this command
minidlna -f /mnt/opt/etc/minidlna.conf
if I try with minidlna -f opt/etc/minidlna.conf does not work
Do you have your /mnt/opt folder mounted to /opt? I assume that you do.
You need to include the preceding forward slash, or dd-wrt will assume the folder is located in your current directory and not the system root (when you log in the default is root - not system root). So...
minidlna -f /opt/etc/minidlna.conf
Sorry if I missed that.
Edit: yep, I typo'd it. Change the command in /opt/etc/init.d/minidlna to include the preceding slash, that should fix it.
