8.2 MiniDLNA issues

[dyzhang]

Below is my storage info.


After installing MiniDLNA, I click the edit buttion of dlna, it shows below info


The DB and MEdia directory drop-down menu shows nothing, and when click start, it will stay at starting DLNA server forever, but the server will not start.

It won't start if the Enable button is not checked. Regarding the greyed-out drop-down menus, this may be a bug related to creating a mount point to hold the data. That should get sorted in another day or so.

some more issues from me

just my 2 cents

With 8.2 Beta2 usb installation
micronas.local @ 192.168.1.252
Jplugins @ 192.168.1.251
minidlna 10.0.22_2

1.
When I set the WEBGui Address to 192.168.1.252 instead of 0.0.0.0
minidlna doesn't show up and this pops up in the console

localhost Couldn't retrieve http://micronas.local//plugins/minidlna/1.0.22_2/treemenu: <urlopen error [Errno 61] Connection refused>

2.
Mount points do not persist across reboots, but they work
anyone knows where /etc/fstab.Jplugins comes from?

3.
had a problem starting it cause the sqlite complained about the db file in jails' /var/db/minidlna/files.db was not writable.

4.
Trying to edit the settings for the demon from the webgui usually gives python exception rants

5.
Media directoriy and database directory comboboxes are empty.

6.
the minidlna.conf file generated has values set with "on" instead "yes" as in the sample

7. configuration file settings do not persist?
changing the friendly name and re editing shows old name again even though .conf file is changed.

@Athanasios Kakargias, did you get it working?
I am unable to pass after installation of the plugin, don't know how to configure it without gui. Any help or manual will be appreciated :)
