  • get the static binary tar (ppc for dm7020, mips32 for dm800) from http://mediatomb.cc
  • copy the tar to the box and untar it on /media/hdd, /media/usb or /media/cf. Dont use the flash from the box (wearout?)
  • go to the new mediatomb directory, execute the mediatomb.sh and stop it again to create a template config file
  • edit mediatomb/config/config.xml:
    • add to the server block <ip>your-boxip</ip> and <port>51000</port>
    • enable extended protocol info for ps3
  • edit mediatomb.sh: add "$@" at the end of the launch command
  • start mediatomb.sh, check the console for errors and stop mediatomb again.
  • if errors, correct them, if none start again with parameter -d
  • browse to the page http://your-boxip:51000 and add /media/hdd/movies to the database (with autorefresh if you like)

Thats it.

What I'd like to have:

  • make mediatomb use syslog for logging
  • internal support for concatenation of .ts with .ts.nnn files (so you dont lose the ability to seek)
  • rc script for autostart
