# Description: Start the serviio DLNA server in headless mode I've written my own, it's probably a bit rough but it works. Now lets add in a init.d script for this. I run this under a seperate user so lets make a user
Now you need to download and install Serviio.
#Serviio console not opening ubuntu how to
*** Add instructions on how to install RPMForge or better a link to a thread which discusses this *** I've not tried it but I suspect it won't work without ffmpeg installed. You'll need ffmpeg installed for transcoding and thumbnails, etc to work. You'll need to rename is using mv as it'll get part of the URL on the end or did in my case. Get the self extracting RPM version for Linux. You can get the link for the latest one which is jre-6u24-linux-i586-rpm.bin currently. This assumes a bit of command line knowledge but I'll try and flesh that out if people are struggling.įirst of all Serviio is Java based so you'll need a JRE installed. So let us know if something doesn't workout right. OK this is a rough guide for the moment as I wasn't noting it down as I installed it so I might miss something. It also supports resuming playback on my Samsung DLNA TV which is the first reason I came across this as no other DLNA server I could find did this other than Samsung's own Windows only one.īy default it has a GUI console but there is a PHP based web interface which works well for our GUIless ClearOS boxes. It will go on the Internet to fetch movie posters for movies, meta data to give Genre, Actors and such folders all filled in automatically.
It supports Transcoding of media in real time (I can transcode 720p content in real time to my Xbox 360). I know we have MiniDLNA, there's also MediaTomb and so on but this I believe is the best DLNA server you can run in Linux currently.
