Have you had any luck getting this to work on the Joggler? I've installed bpa's HLS plugin and the modified menu.opml file in iPlayer but it won't play the HLS streams. I thought I already had ffmpeg installed because some of my iPlayer Extras streams are transcoded from AAC to FLAC (at least according to the info screen.)

Now type

Code: Select all

sudo passwd

Hit 'Enter'

You will be prompted to enter a superuser password; do so then hit 'Enter'
You'll be prompted to enter the same password again; do so then hit 'Enter'

You've now created a password for the superuser (root)

Login to WinSCP with username root and the password you've just created. You now have permissions in WinSCP to modify, delete and copy new system files. Be careful with this privilege and always exit after you've done what you need.

After creating a fresh stick and installing castalla's fix, installing bpa's HLS plugin and copying over the modified menu.opml file, everything was working fine. I upgraded LMS to the 7.9 nightly and it broke; 'downgrading' to 7.8.1 fixed it again.

I had everything else set up OK, just needed to copy ffmpeg to /usr/local/bin on my Mac mini.

Now rocking to 6 Music!

Is there a reason for this behaviour, and is it expected to change at all? I can reserve IP addresses based on these MAC addresses so I can make sure I always find the 'right' one on the network, but if there's going to be a change to get the proper hardware MAC address I'd rather do that instead.

It's actually supposed to be there, but I missed the fact that it was removed from the Trusty repos. That's why ffmpeg support is all a bit confused when you go googling. Canonical whizzed it out of the official repos and told everyone to use avconv instead, then stuck their fingers in their ears when it came to the complaints that not everything works with avconv.

Rapid ffmpeg installation method:

Sorry I've not been around much, folks - I haven't forgotten the place, it's just winding up to being a rather busy one!
