hi,

I'm running the current LibreElec version on a raspi 3b+ and have installed emby and embycon add-on. I'm just interested in the DLNA feature of emby to stream my live TV recordings.. In the web UI of emby everything looks fine (as far as I can judge) but emby server is not visible in any of my DLNA clients like VLC, BubbleUPNP, Sony TV. Just FYI: I cannot use LibreElec's built in DLNA because my Sony TV does not find it for whatever reason. MiniDLNA running on my NAS is visible, so this is not really a TV issue...

Ara there any extra settings to do?

TIA

hi,

I've set up Libreelec 8.2.4 (Kernel 4.9.59) on a Raspi 3 B+ and running into problems mounting a NAS via WLAN.

The directory on the NAS gets monted by system.d with this script:

After reading this posting here, I tried

ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 5

in the MOUNT section and the first test works fine. Maybe I have to increase the value to handle NAS startup time when it's in stand by mode.

hi,

I've set up Libreelec 8.2.4 (Kernel 4.9.59) on a Raspi 3 B+ and running into problems mounting a NAS via WLAN.

The directory on the NAS gets monted by system.d with this script:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# The description should be used to explain what this servicefile is for
Description=Script to mount NAS libreelec folder

# if we do network mounts like here we *require* 'network-online.service'
# which checks if the network is online
Requires=network-online.service

# our scripts must start *after* 'network-online.service', on timeout and if
# 'network-online.service' fails we can not mount and this scripts fails too
After=network-online.service

# usually we mount networks shares because we want they avaible *before* XBMC starts.
# so XBMC has access to this mounts from beginning. Note: this slows down the boot!
Before=kodi.service

[Mount]
# The share we want mount
What=//<ip_of_my_NAS>/libreelec
# Where we want mount this share
Where=/media/<target_folder>
# Any options you usually use with the "-o" parameter in the mount command
Options=username=the_username,password=the_password,vers=1.0

# filesystem type
Type=cifs

[Install]
# The target is used by 'systemctl enable <name_of_this_file.mount>' to link
# this service to a runlevel for starting on boot. usually 'multi-user.target'
# is ok here.
WantedBy=multi-user.target

# Important:
# this file must be renamed to <mountpoint>.mount where <mountpoint>, is the FULL path
# where the share will be mounted but slashes "/" MUST BE REPLACED with dashes "-" with .mount
# as extension.
# This means, if we want mount to "/storage/music2" (see above "Where=/storage/music2")
# then this file must be renamed to 'storage-music2.mount' and can be enabled via ssh with the
# command 'systemctl enable storage-music2.mount'

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I start the system, it immediately crashes. When I rename the mount script, system starts as expected and works. I think there must be a timing issue. Are there any options I can set in the script, for example to wait until WLAN is up?

When I connect via SSH to the system, I can mount manually the NAS directory without any problems.

hi,

I've some trouble using the web interface chorus2. Mostly because there seems to be no documentation...

I've mounted a NAS folder into my LibreElec (8.2.4 (RPi2.arm)) and then tried to confiuge the web interface to handle this folder. You can add new folders by setting the URL, name and icon. But how gets the URL mapped to the physical path of my folder? I didn't get it

TIA

hi,

I've just installed LibreElec on a raspi 3B+ (8.2.4 (RPi2.arm)) and created a new user profile. I cannot change the language settings for this profile, because english is the only available option. Not so for the admin user, where I can change the settings. did I miss something?

TIA
