More on the NAS

The whole reason I went to the bother of trying to get root on the NAS was that the version of Twonky on there does not work properly with my Bravia TV. MP3's cut off after 20 seconds or so, obviously not the best situation. What I did in the end was try out another piece of DLNA server software, minidlna -I first tried installing it using ipkg but it didn't work and I was a little annoyed that it shoved it's massive log files and database on /tmp -I wanted to keep them on the user part of the disk. The reason the log files are so big is that they are complaining constantly about inotify not being available -that's a kernel version thing I think, so I have turned it off in the config file, which unfortunately means I'll have to manually rescan the drive to rebuild the media database. After compiling a version from the latest source though, it works perfectly in terms of music playback. I haven't got any video files of the right type hanging around at the moment so I'm not sure whether that works, but at least MP3s are playing al the way though now. So I disabled twonky and mt-daapd (I don't use itunes) and left minidlna enabled.
