Hello I have a new challenge for the GURU's of this forum. I recently bought an Samsung LE32c550 LCD TV , and it has an network port. By default Samsung gives to the users a Windows (mac?) program called "SAMSUNG PC Share Manager" who works with most Samsung TV's (all I think) who have LAN or WLAN ports, and basicly makes a kind of share through network giving acces to some folders for the TV. This way you can play movies, pictures, etc directly from the computer.
THE CHALLENGE IS TO MAKE MY (OUR) WL500GP (DELUXE, V2) ROUTERS WITH OLEG'S FIRMWARE (installed through wengi's tutorial - in my case) work with this type of sharing for the benefit of watching movies directly from router.
OK , WHO IT WILL BE MY (OUR) HERO ? ANYBODY ?:confused:
you really haven't looked a bit further than the software have you?:)
The things you need are the following things: UPnP (universal plug and play) and DLNA (digital living network alliance).
We have 2 UPnP servers on the ipkg repository: ushare and mediatomb
ushare is simple to set up, but not very good when it comes to compatibility...
mediatomb has better compatibility, but it's quite slow imho.
Also a comercial server is available called Twonky Server.
I use twonky, simply because it's the best in the market and because they are member of DLNA.
Obviously I'm not telling you to go buy stuff, that would be bad thing. Instead, try out the opensource servers available to see if they're sufficient for you.
If not you can try twonky (30 day trial).

SO I INSTALLED USHARE AFTER I READ AN TRANSLATED GERMAN FORUM ABOUT USHARE , THE TV SEES ALL THE FILES BUT GIVES ME AN ERROR ALL TEH TIME " fORMat UNSUPPORTED" ?????
caps?
anyway, it seems like the samsung tv's usually have those kind of problems after some googling...
for ushare you can't set more parameters, so either way it is mediatomb or twonky you need to use.
My best bets are on twonky for this:)
Hi
I have same problem like you
Try this web http://samygo.sourceforge.net/
You can flash your fw in tv and after this you have telnet access and lot of another features like change color of subtitles, play DTS sound AND you can access folder shared with samba.
I havenīt good experience with DLNA so at home Iīm using this "setup".
If you want more info donīt hesitate to ask.
PS: with samba there is only one cons (minus) you have to use samba 3 because with samba 2 have some problems.
PS2: If you are afraid to flash fw in tv you can everything try without flashing but every new features will be avaible until you switch off and on yout tv but it is good for trying to know what is possible
Hi guys,
first of all thank you wpte for an easy guide how to install twonky on asus router.
Now go on ... Iīve installed Twonky and there was a big problem how to choose media folders. It is necessary to browse from
usr/tmp/harddisk instead of
/tmp/harddisk.
No other trouble with this amazing software. Now iam downloading on transmission some FullHD movies to try if routerīs bandwidth is high enought to stream this movies.
Thx for this and see what to do in 30 days after trial expires.

I didn't run into that problem yet:confused:
Maybe because I mounted my main drive on /mnt :)
Twonky is a lot faster than samba, usually, so you might be lucky:)
on my RT-N16 it's not a problem whatsoever.
the software can be reset easily to 30 days again, BUT it would be quite unfair to the developers imho:)
especially because the lisence isn't that expensive: only 15 euro.

Oh yes, Not too expensive, so now Twonky is registered. Speed is sufficient and no bid trouble in watching movies. Thanks man ;-)
Anyboady tested new 6.0.32 version? I cannot start this threw mentioned guide http://www.twonkyforum.com/mediawiki/index.php/Asus_Routers_-_Oleg_FW#Setting_up_Twonky_6.x (http://www.twonkyforum.com/mediawiki/index.php/Asus_Routers_-_Oleg_FW#Setting_up_Twonky_6.x)
When trying start server, it says that at Script:
/opt/twonkymedia/twonkymedia: line 1: syntax error: unexpected "("
Any suggestion how to fix this? I've downloaded manual install version (http://www.twonky.com/upfiles/twonkymedia-i386-glibc-2.2.5-6.0.32.zip), not the asus one, because I didn find it.
asus TwonkyServer 6.0.31-RC6 (http://www.twonkyforum.com/downloads/6.0.31-RC6/twonkymedia-asus-6.0.31-RC6.zip) works fine

Hi, i'm looking for the best way to connect my Samsung TV to a lot of movies stored in a NAS connected to the wl500GP. The NAS (a Kroun 2 BAIE GIGABIT) has an integrated media server (DMS) and the television connects to all the files but can't open all of them (photo-movies and music) with the error "format unsupported". So i'm trying to see if twonky works. I have installed it with the ECADDICT easy tutorial, and the television connects to the shared folder in the USB HD i've connected to the ASUS (with the exception of mkv files that give the "unsupported format" error). Now my problem is to put in share the folder of the NAS that is connected to the asus router trough the ethernet plug... How can i add this folder to the twonky shares????
Thank you very much
doe's anyone know how i can put in share a folder on a NAS connected to the asus trough eternet and with an IP address? I've tryed to add //IPaddress of NAS/folder but it didn't work.......
Sorry f i do again the queston gut i would try to let it work before the end of trial period..thank you
Checking the Kraun web page, i've seen that the HD is in this path "/nmt/ide4/folder". I think this is the address for the kraun. May be that i've to add this in the fstab file, maybe adding the ip address of the kraun router????? If this is the problem someone knows how to do it?

Well... your nas also has windows shares I guess?
that means you can mount those shares on your router.
either way, with samba installed this might work:
smbmount //computer/share /mnt/point -o ip=x.x.x.x
or you can use mount if you have the smbfs driver loaded up:
mount -t smbfs //x.x.x.x/share /mnt/point
be sure that the folders exist on which you want to mount the network locations...
then you can add those folders to twonky
Thank's for your reply and sorry for my too long "quote" in the other post. In my Asus router is installed the Headstart II but i disabled many services in /opt/etc/init.d renaming them (that's why my router has not enough memory) but samba is working.
This is my folder /opt/etc/init
DK70mysqld
DS45php
DS58proftpd
DS70mysqld
DS80busybox_httpd
DS80lighttpd
DS90mediatomb
rc.unslung
S05syslogd
S10xinetd
S10cron
S60transmission
S90twonkymedia
S80samba
So you can see what is running and what is stopped.
The folder on the NAS that i want to share is named "public" and the NAS IP is 192.168.1.168. Could you please explain me in an easy way all the steps i've to follow and their meaning (just to understand better what i'm doing). As you have surely noticed i'm not so experienced in Linux... thank you very much for your help
smbmount \\GIGABIT-NAS2/public/media /mnt/protected/Downlo
aders/Transmission/done -o ip=192.168.1.168 username=admin password=xxxxx

Hy guys, i found this post again after a long time and i want to share the experience i gained with somebody trying to have an dlna server on asus custom firmware.
Right now i have the latest 1.9.2.7-rtn-r3497 firmware on my Asus WL500gP from http://wl500g.googlecode.com/, followed wengi's tutorial from http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=10307 and I finally stumbled uppon this post: http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=28107 .
I installed MiniDLNA from there and is working great. So i have from my router what i need right now:
1. Transmission torrent ( wich is updated to version 2.42, suports LPD - local peer discovery wich is great for my network)
2. Mini DLNA sever wich works great with my Samsung LE32c550 TV
3. An FTP server (embedded in my firmware)
4 An DC++ client - microdc2
So if somebody think that is ok can use the links i gave.
For every guru here i give a big THANKS ! keep it on , you make our life so much easy !
