Hi. Im a newbie so i will ask if you can explain it more in detail please. I need to install miniDLNA on my Ubuntu 10.04 lts O/S to stream via the Ethernet cable and modem and then via ethernet cable to my Samsung D5300 Bluray player.

I have got no idea what you are talking about and would ask a step by step instructions please.

I cant even use XBMC for that. Or can i?

There is now an official Debian package: http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/minidlna.html

Oops, it seems that my uploaded package does not include the startup script. Anyway, I sent it to the Debian packager so it may show up in the official packages.

I have made a Ubuntu 8.04 package here:
https://launchpad.net/~tormodvolden/+archive/ppa/+packages
while waiting for official Debian/Ubuntu packages:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=597228

My package includes a startup script (starts up when the network interface comes up).

you should be able to type “which minidlna” and it will tell you where it was installed to

Hi,

Maybe I’ve not got much AV stuff installed, but I also needed to do an

apt-get install libavcodec-dev libavutil-dev

But the make told me what I needed anyway.

Cheers,
Geoff.

you can just run the binary to start minidlna – if you want to stop it just find the process and kill it with the kill command
