This guide is on configuring and optimizing Fuppes Media Server, which will help improve the standard of you media playback. While enhancing the standard of your media, I will also show you tips on how to make your DLNA and UPnp units more appropriate with the Fuppes Media Server. To start configuring and optimizing the Fuppes Media Server, you'll wish to open up the fuppes.cfg file. The fuppes.cfg file may very well be positioned in a number of different areas on you Ubuntu linux server. Once you open up your fuppes.cfg information, you must have a file that appears like my original fuppes.cfg.
vi /root/.fuppes/fuppes.cfg
vi /home/USERNAME/fuppes.cfg
vi /etc/fuppes/fuppes.cfg
The very first thing that you are going to want to do is add the directories to the place your media is presently positioned in your linux server. This needs to be located at around line four or 5 within the fuppes.cfg file.
/var/www/Media/Movies/
/var/www/Media/Music
/var/www/Media/Pictures-Home-Videos
After you have situated you media directories and have inserted the folder locations into your fuppes.cfg recordsdata, you'll then must specify to Fuppes on what ip deal with and port number to run the media server on. As a substitute of specifying a sure ip tackle, it's also possible to insert the community interface instead. And many others ...eth0, eth1.
