Thanks Oscar and ETP, I have minidlna up and running. Peace, Scott

Dear Oscar and ETP, thank you for helping me. I followed ETP's steps and successfully played the test video. One last question (perhaps): should I now edit the media directory to point to my desktop (which, at least for now is where my video files are stored)? All the best, Scott

Hi Oscar, could you post a screenshot of your conf file? Thanks, Scott

Hello Oscar, it's still not working. Does this output from the log file provide any clues? [2020/02/29 08:54:40] minidlna.c:1048: warn: Starting ReadyDLNA version 1.2.1.

Hey Oscar, the only folders I can actually explore on my t.v. are Palemoon and Firefox. Am I supposed to create the media_drive folder? Can I search my computer to see if the folders I am seeing the t.v. have been created on my hard drive and where they are located? l did use your package and have c...

Do I need to nstall vcl on Roku? I couldn't find the config file in the /ect directory. media_dir=/mnt/home/desktop. The config file I edited is located in my root minidnla-1.2.1 folder.

This is what I see on my tv which has a Roku box: scottspuppy: ReadyNAS Browse Folders Added: Unknown and these folders Browse Folders, Pictures Music , Video The folders are all empty and I don't know if they exist and if so, where they are located. Hopefully, this will m...

Ok. So I followed your link and downloaded the current minidlna version. I unpacked it and attempted an install which didn't work. This is what I found in the config log: It was created by MiniDLNA configure 1.1.3, which was generated by GNU Autoconf 2.69. Invocation command line was $ ./configure c...

Hi Oscar, I downloaded the package from one of the puppy linux download pages. You've been very helpful to me in the past. May I approach this from a different angle. I would like to stream downloaded videos from my computer, running Xenialpup 7.5, to my Roku receiver. Can you advise me how to do th...

I am running Xenialpup 7.5 on a HP Pavillion dv200 laptop. I have minidlna-1.0.22-1 installed.

Ok, I can make a connection, but I'm having to deactivate frizbee and set up the network on each boot.

Ok Bigpup. I followed all of the steps and made a connection. I opened my Palemoon browser and as soon as I attempted to connect with the discussion forum my connection timed out and my internet connection disconnected. I read that there may be issues with Frizbee and that it may run in the backgrou...

Ok, so now I have a new problem. When I search for my wireless network it shows up but I can't maintain a connection. I have all three wireless tools that are included with Xenialpup 7.5. So I configure the modem, it appears to connect, but then no actual data is transmitted to or from my computer, ...

Hello Semme, thank you very much. It works!! Scott

So basically when I'm running windows the modem works. When I boot to Xenialpup it does not even light up. The modem came with a disc which has drivers on it. I just don't know which one to install and how to install it. I did follow the link above, download and installed to pet files, but in the en...

It's the first card listed. The windows 7 driver is RTL8192.us.sys. As always, thank you.

Here are the screen shots.

Hello, I am running a Panasonic CF-29 and dual booting Windows 7 and Xenialpup 7.5. I just upgraded to a gigabit Internet connection and bought a new Raylink usb adapter to take advantage of the faster speed. The adapter came with windows and Linux drivers. The windows driver was easy to install and...

Thanks again Oscar. I followed your instructions and it worked. I did need to type modprobe tun and figured this out after several aborted attempts.

Good morning. I am running two laptops with fresh, frugal installs of Xenialpup 7.5. Is there a step by step guide to installing and configuring ovpenvpn, beginning with downloading, unzipping, installing and configuring the vpn, to setting it up to work with, in my case, a pro version of Windscribe...
