It might handle .wma. I'm not sure. Sounds like you're on the right track. The streams feature is pretty fidgety. The hardest part is getting the real URL for the stream for whatever station you want to listen to. Typically that involves finding a link to an .m3u and opening that in a text editor an...

The only version of python I've got installed on this FreeBSD9 machine is v2.7.2. The problem is a chunk of code immediately above common.py:61 that's figuring out what an appropriate path is for your OS. It only includes checks for windows, mac, and linux--so the default path isn't defined for fre...

Hi, Did anyone think about using py2exe for windows distribution of the server? This would make a self contained executable with the corresponding files which could be simply unpacked in to a directory without installing python separately. I was going to give this a try. Thanks. I did think of it b...

Hi " Download it Here and follow the instructions at that page to get things set up" link on the first page is broken. In the mean time you can get the server on this page: https://github.com/netguy204/roku_media_server/archives/channel Get zip if you are on windows and you know what to g...

netguy204-roku_media_server-8de3528 folder contains all the magic (What Windows app would open the "textile" docs?) I launch by double-clicking mymedia.bat Based on the folder name, it looks like you're version predates the mkv support xwin added. The walkthrough links directly to the ver...

So, FINALLY, I've set up a wiki for MyMedia. The near term useful thing you can find here is the FAQ: http://mymedia.wikinet.org/wiki/FAQ But, I'd love to see us also collect tricks and tips and platform specific detailed installation instructions here as well. The main page: http://mymedia.wikinet....

Like a charm, thanks!

Sweet! Thanks for pointing out the bad link in the README. I just fixed that too.

Have you tried mapping the network location to a drive letter (eg, z:\music ?). Typically using the \\computer\share\music style of directory works but if it doesn't I'd give mapping a try. This forum isn't monitored much anymore. I recommend posting any followup questions here: http://forums.roku.c...

You may need to be in the server directory when you run mymedia.py. cd roku_media_server/server python mymedia.py Hey JT, I downloaded the new file. Deleted the old folder and put the new one in its place. I ran: sudo port select python python26 python roku_media_server/server/mymedia.py I STILL don...

I have an iMac Intel version. I get the following in terminal when I copy and paste or type in the text: Searching for Imaging Reading http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/ Best match: Imaging 1.1.7 Downloading http://effbot.org/downloads/Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz Processing Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz Runni...

BIF files are pretty straight fwd to create. There is nice python script at https://bitbucket.org/bcl/homevideo/src/6413366ef1c8/server/makebif.py (part of 'homevideo' project) that uses ffmpeg to create jpegs. I have tried it and FF and REWIND are so much better with these. This script is truncati...

so mymedia wont recognise .mkv files,whereas roku plays .mkv when wd hd is connected to roku directly. please confirm.And what are the supported formats for mymedia. sams That's correct. According to the Roku developer's documentation mkv is not a player supported format. It may be it is actually s...

when i see the log my_media_log,it says DEBUG:root:rejecting ALA.mkv. MKV isn't a supported file format--that's why you see "rejecting" in the log file. MyMedia scans through the directories you point it at and picks up all of the files it recognizes and the ignores (rejects) the rest. Yo...

If you can get to your settings within the channel, just edit the server IP address to be http://192.168.1.22:8001 I've done exactly that. The connection still fails, and I get the "failed to autoconfigure" error. Yet my laptop connects to the server without a hiccup. What else can I try?...
