Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] WD MyBook Live NAS
msimmo, To make things simple. Just install LMS. You do not have to change the port#. The LMS will use 9002 if 9000 is being used by Twonky. You can move the cache folder later anytime. So follow PaulBC #3 instruction: Change to a public directory: Code: cd /DataVolume/shares/Public Update debian packages: Code: aptitude update Download LMS 7.7.2 (or an older or nightly build of your choice): Code: wget http://downloads.slimdevices.com/LogitechMediaServer_v7.7.2/logitechmediaserver_7.7.2_all.deb Install LMS: Code: dpkg -i logitechmediaserver_7.7.2_all.deb Reboot MBL after the installation is done. The try to access the LMS via http://192.168.1.20:9002.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] WD MyBook Live NAS
The instruction is posted by PaulBC on http://www.mailinglistarchive.com/html/plugins@lists.slimdevices.com/2012-05/msg00405.html. In preparation for installing Logitech Media Server on a My Book Live Duo, I read through this thread, and the others it references, several times to understand what has worked, and what has not. For my, and others, reference, I've collected the successful steps below. I take no credit for the content, other than collecting it all in one spot. Also, this is not an exhaustive step-by-step guide, I assume the reader is familiar with basic linux commands and the vi editor. 1) ENABLE SSH VIA HTTP://MYBOOKLIVE/UI/SSH 2) DISABLE MEDIA STREAMING ON THE SETTINGS / MEDIA PAGE OR CHANGE TWONKY'S PORT FROM 9000 TO 8000: Stop twonky: Code: /etc/init.d/twonky stop Edit the ini file: Code: vi /CacheVolume/twonkymedia/twonkymedia-server.ini Change the httpport variable: Code: httpport=8000 Start twonky: Code: /etc/init.d/twonky start 3) INSTALL LOGITECH MEDIA SERVER Change to a public directory: Code: cd /DataVolume/shares/Public Update debian packages: Code: aptitude update Download LMS 7.7.2 (or an older or nightly build of your choice): Code: wget http://downloads.slimdevices.com/LogitechMediaServer_v7.7.2/logitechmediaserver_7.7.2_all.deb Install LMS: Code: dpkg -i logitechmediaserver_7.7.2_all.deb 4) MOVE THE LMS CACHE DIRECTORY TO A PUBLIC FOLDER Stop LMS: Code: /etc/init.d/logitechmediaserver stop Move the default cache directory: Code: mv /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/cache /DataVolume/cache/squeezeboxserver Backup server.prefs file: Code: cp /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/server.prefs /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/server.prefs.bak Edit server.prefs file: Code: vi /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/server.prefs Change cachedir variable to new location Code: cachedir: /DataVolume/cache/squeezeboxserver Change librarycachedir to new location: Code: librarycachedir: /DataVolume/cache/squeezeboxserver Change dbsource variable to new location: Code: dbsource: dbi:SQLite:dbname=/DataVolume/cache/squeezeboxserver/library.db Start LMS: Code: /etc/init.d/logitechmediaserver start 5) CONNECT TO LMS AND CONFIGURE VIA HTTP://MYBOOKLIVE:9000/ LMS was up and running for me after step 3, with a successful scan of my 5000 song library. I went ahead with step 4 just to ensure I don't run into disk space problems in the future. ply3908's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38634 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84735 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

These post mention /CacheVolume/twonkymedia/twonkymedia-server.ini for the ini file. But, strange enough, there is no twonkymedia folder in my /CacheVolume anymore. By the way, Twonky is running on port 9000 without problems. Does anyone know how to change ports now? I have twonky 5 and I do see the /CacheVolume/twonkymedia/twonkymedia-server.ini file. You can use the find command to look for where the is twonkymedia-server.ini located. But when I install LMS, it assigned a different port number (I think 9001) when 9000 is being used by twonky. After LMS installed, you can change the LMS port number to a different number via the LMS web interface (Settings Advanced Network). ply3908's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38634 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84735 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] WD MyBook Live NAS
No sure why you can't move the directory. Did you login as root? You can try copy the directory, then remove the old one as follow: /etc/init.d/squeezeboxserver stop (stop the daemon) cd /var/lib (navigate to the /var/lib directory) cp -R --preserve=mode,ownership,timestamps squeezeboxserver /DataVolume/cache/ ( copy /var/lib/squeezeboxserver to /DataVolume/cache/squeezeboxserver) rm -rf squeezeboxserver (remove the squeezeboxserver directory after copy) ln -s /DataVolume/cache/squeezeboxserver (make a shortcut) /etc/init.d/squeezeboxserver start (start the daemon) -- ply3908 ply3908's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38634 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84735 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
