Totem for Puppy

[jamalexa]

I was wondering if anybody has worked with Totem movie player. It is the only player that works with my upnp server - Mediatomb. I tried VLC but I did not like the media menu.

You can install totem from ubuntu repo in lucid puppy. With all recommended dependencies it is 86 Mb.

Hmm. Gnome-icon-theme 20 MB. That can be left outside.

Thanks I try that.

jamalexa,

you don't need the 86 mb, you need djmount.

url: http://djmount.sourceforge.net/

find the pet attached.

What does djmount do?
it mounts your upnp-shared music to your local filesystem, so you can browse and play/use it with every player you want.

usage is simple:
1. create a dir for mounting the shares later

Code: Select all

mkdir /mnt/music

2. mount your upnp-shares with

Code: Select all

djmount /mnt/music

3. you're now ready to go
4. to unmount later do

Code: Select all

fusermount -u /mnt/music

hope it works with mediathomb, but if i remember right, then yes.

good luck

What about movies and music videos? Can I use it for any upnp share?

[aragon]

i've only used it for music but it should also work with video.
