While twonkymedia.sh included in the manual install tarball for linux works, I have started using the attached init script instead (mainly because I find it easier to read, if you are happy with twonkymedia.sh there is no need to use this)

If you do use it, please provide feedback (both positive and negative) in this topic.

Hi,

Excellent script! It's way clearer than the cluttered one i used to use. I did some modifications and removed the reload option since it doesn't work on my ClearOS install.

In order to get transcoding with ffmpeg you can't use the -D flag!

I ended up with this:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
#
# turn on debug mode
#set -x
#
#       /etc/rc.d/init.d/twonkymedia
#
# based on the acpid sysvinit file
# and twonkymedia.sh
