Support for unicode is also in the partition branch if you'd prefer to use that to help handle your big collection. Word of warning though: You won't be able to see folders that don't start with an ascii letter between a and z... that's why it's in a separate branch. The partitioning algorithm needs some more thought and work before it's ready for the main branch.

EDIT:

Main Release
http://github.com/netguy204/roku_media_ ... ves/master

Partition support beta
http://github.com/netguy204/roku_media_ ... /partition

Those two links always point at the latest and greatest versions.


COOOOOOLLLLL

Got high level folders, navigated down to a WMA albu and clicked the first song - it never started playing.....

Re: My Media - Your Music and Video on the Roku DVP

Reporting success with the latest version (w/ partitions) access and playing songs with special characters. (Bridgett Bardot is now cooing through my Roku.)

Nice work.

Re: My Media - Your Music and Video on the Roku DVP

dellsweig:

Can you run the server in debug mode and let me know if it prints out anything when you try to play a song from your Roku?

The Roku trace looks fine and normal except it's missing the "audio status: start of play" it emits when it finally has enough of the song to start the audio. My first guess is that the server is having trouble after it sends part of the song.

I restarted and re-loaded and now WMA's play ok but my MP3's like the link above with imbedded stuff in them dont play.

There is no info in the debug server trace

Dont know if it because the mp3's are a couple directory levels deeper than the WMA's

Ok - it looks like it wont play anything thats too deep in the directory tree

This wont play

K:\Media Files\Grateful Dead\Commercial Releases\Built to Last

This will play

K:\Media Files\Aaron Neville\The Grand Tour

Re: My Media - Your Music and Video on the Roku DVP

Can you try copying

Grateful Dead\Commercial Releases\Built to Last

down to a lower level in the directory tree to test this theory?

I tested nesting a song down to 8 levels in the latest release and it played without difficulty but I'll investigate it further if we can show that this specific album works when it's at a less nested path.

Re: My Media - Your Music and Video on the Roku DVP

Standard is fine for this.

By "nesting" I meant enclosing a folder within another folder. I'll use the word "partition" when talking about the beta version for large collections.

Rephrasing my previous post:

Try copying the folder:

K:\Media Files\Grateful Dead\Commercial Releases\Built to Last

to the folder

K:\Media Files\test
