Twonky on B3?

Post by Moloko »

Hi,

I tried to install Twonky from theirs homepage, but I guess the arhitecture is wrong. I tried both Linux versions without success...

Will there be any support for Twonky on our beloved B3's?

Hi Moloko,

Yes, you are right, they only offer it compiled for i386 GNU/Linux.
I guess your feature request belongs with them rather than here...

Best regards,

Cheeseboy

We have installed in to test, we considered it for the B3 but decided not to include it since it was too expensive and not open source.

If you still want to try mediatomb, have a look here:
http://www.twonkyforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7653
..and:
http://www.twonkyforum.com/downloads/6.0.32/

So yes, they have "as-is" ARM builds as well. (Use the little endian, glibc version). I would suspect that they are 30-day trials, you probably need to pay after that...

(As a sidenote, the B3 2.3 release due in june will include minidlna in favor of mediatomb).

Im trying to install Twonky on my B3, downloaded the package stated above but when starting twonky i get "Starting /usr/local/bin/twonkymedia/twonkymedia ... /usr/local/bin/twonkymedia/twonkymedia.sh: 154: /usr/local/bin/twonkymedia/twonkymedia: not found" when searching the web for a solution it seems that this is because twonky is a 32 bit app and the system is 64 bit (is this correct?).
When trying to install 32 bit support as stated in the read me for twonky i get the feedback "E: Unable to locate package ia32-libs", is there a way to solve the problems?

Did you really download the ARM version?

Look here:
http://www.twonkyforum.com/unsupported/4.4.11/

and download:

Linux ARM little endian glibc 2.2.5

Sorry to say so, but yes, have tried several times but all with the same result, also different versions 4,5 & 6.
I'm quite interested of getting this to work as i already have licenses for twonky.

Can you please explain the steps you take when installing? (and no, the arm version is for 32 bit systems so this is something else).

I think I'm doing it right, but here it is.

Loging in by my user changing to su.

Downloading for example the newest version "http://www.twonkyforum.com/downloads/6. ... 6.0.37.zip" to a folder on the B3 "/usr/local/twonkymedia/.

Unziping by unzip in the same folder.

Checking the rights making it 700 for the recommended files "chmod 700 twonkym* cgi-bin/* plugins/*"

Trying to start the server by issuing the full path, "/usr/local/twonkymedia/twonkymedia".

Then i get "bash: /usr/local/twonkymedia/twonkymedia: No such file or directory", but the file is there and i can for example open it in an editor.

How does the first line in that file look like?
My guessing is that it is an faulty shebang. An faulty shebang usually gives this unhelpful error.

I get exactly the same result,

Here is a thread on another forum where the same problem is discussed, but also here without a final result.

OK, so i got it running.

I found a clue on this blog http://server.vijge.net/archive/twonky- ... humbnails/ which recommends the Kirkwood build.
I tried the Kirkwood build and it worked as a charm (this far ;) )

Wonderful, great work _NE_!

Obviously they added the kirkwood build since we tried this. Thank!

Hi Johannes,

would be great if you could bring this setup checklist to your wiki :mrgreen:

Thanks
