CFULLHDMAi Firmware Updated

Thanks to the MKV specification and the usage of a certain part of that specs by the release group IMMERSE many Mediaplayer vendor had to update their devices with a new updated firmware where they follow the spec. When not following and using a TV series release from IMMERSE there was suddenly no sound anymore (and: I noticed that with those MKV’s they already put english subtitles as well).

So after getting a notice, the guys at Conceptronic (I am not part of Conceptronic anymore, so do not blame me when you have an issue) jumped to their developers and after debugging and testing a first release fixing this issue was released today.

Find here the firmware for the CFULLHDMA and here the one for the CFULLHDMAi

From a reliable source the release notes:

• Added Youtube support again
• Updated shoutcast API
• Fixed the MKV no sound issue

I could not keep this release unnoticed.

Just a howto for a Tweaker

Do not use this howto if you are using fun_plug or nzbget already! [updated 01-03-2010]

this howto is a first test for me to see if I can write a howto out of experience and without the need to do a complete install myself (No NAS available to do it).

updated: 17-11-2009

Enjoy!, This howto should be working now.

(more…)

Trying to crash: nzbget

I run the latest beta release of nzbget: release 342, especially to have it crash on certain nzb files. But ‘unfortunately’ after 18 days and more than 500GB of download: it is still running as it should

WOW .. this version is stable.. complete siterips, many mp3′s and movies, tv series are downloaded and the script is still working fine even where the nas reaches over 60 degrees celcius. Still in need for someone like to do some scripting to make the unpak script more easy to use and make fun of the unpak of stuff ..

Message to Self: CH3SNAS & Format HDD

Do not, I repeat Do not try to reformat the HDD’s if Fun_Plug is running. It will fail. Root cause is probably the fact that fdisk is showing an segmentation fault (ie. fdisk /dev/sdb)

3x formatting failed when fun_plug was enabled, after disabling the format directly started .. and succeeded.

NZBGET for CH3SNAS, the Zeroday way

rev1.
find here nzbget + nzbgetweb (latest beta release) in a ‘Zeroday’ installation package
it 98% complete. Missing some documentation only.

Here the quick guide:

What do you need?  You need to download the PHP package of FONZ and install it with funpkg -i php-5.2.9-1.tgz (UPDATED 22-05-09)

Important note: PHP 5.2.9-1 NEEDS also the CURL package to be installed  ! Otherwise lighttpd cannot be started!

http://www.inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/0.5/PACKAGES.html#curl

and you need to install the unrar package which you can download here and install also with funpkg -i unrar-3.7.8-1.tgz

Make sure you put the newsbin_zeroday-rc1.tar into /mnt/HD_a2
in telnet use the command: tar -xvf newsbin_zeroday-rc1.tar and it will create a folder newsbin

cd /mnt/HD_a2/newsbin/conf/
cp php.ini /ffp/etc/
this will copy some specific php settings to be used by lighttpd when started
Please make sure that there is NO lighttpd already running as we are using our own configuration

after unpacking and copying the php.ini file we are almost ready
cd /mnt/HD_a2/newsbin/
sh startweb.sh start
sh startnzbget.sh start

go to your browser and enter http://ch3snas:8000

nzbgetweb is shown and you can now press config and in the NZBGET-SERVER part you select: NEWS-SERVERS and here you enter your News-Server Server1.Host, username & Password
Save this and you are ready

Upload your NZB files into the /mnt/HD_a2/newsbin/nzb folder (or Volume_1/newsbin/nzb)
best way is to create 2 shares in the webconfiguration of the CH3SNAS to /Volume_1/Newsbin/nzb to have a direct shortcut to the NZB folder within Windows and to create a direct share to /Volume_2/Newsbin/usenet where the files will be downloaded to and extracted

Try it. comments are open for discussion ;’-)

SPF records

Finally I have valid SPF records

Received-SPF: pass (hosting.mixfans.org: domain of aroundmyroom.com designates xx.xx.xxx.xx as permitted sender) client-ip=xx.xx.xxx.xx; envelope-from=blah@aroundmyroom.com; helo=[192.168.1.11];

Ok, SPF is not 100% ok (I have too much domains mentioned in the TXT setting of the DNS, but ok for main purpose it’s working ..
