July 23, 2008After getting good feedback from various users and testing myself as well I was really unhappy with the way the UPnP server was integrated and causing issues with updates. And not to forget having issues with Playstation 3 and suddenly missing SRT support again (neat feature which is not available within many UPnP servers, so I could get some fame… (I already have cause we do have Kernel NFS ;-) ).
Today a new release for beta testers .. 1.04RC5.
What is extremely important is that after firmware upgrade you NEED to reset the CH3SNAS to factory defaults. If you do not do this than certain scripts will not be updated from firmware into flash.
- Fixed: users should be able to play 8GB MOVIE files through the UPnP AV server (Especially PlayStation 3 users)
- Fixed SRT support: When a DMA is actively requesting for the SRT file the UPnP server gave it and the subtitles were displayed correctly during playback.
- Fixed & Updated: some users reported that updating the UPnP AV server was not possible, no new files were entered into the database. We have verified the working and we have re-introduced the ‘RESCAN’ button to give users the ability to force a database rescan.
Please be notified that if you modify the SHARE PATH (by default folder ROOT) into a folder which contains a white space the auto-update feature will NOT work
So do not use: ‘Media Video’ but use ‘Media-Video’ or ‘Media_Video’ otherwise the inotify tool will not start. It does not matter if the main shard folder is containing folders with white spaces in its name. Just do not start with it.
Note: messages recieved upon the ‘kernel’ messages seen is under debugging/investigation. If someone has an easy ‘how-to reproduce’ it could be useful
