Re: Clean-up database not working?

It would help to know what version of Madsonic you are running. If you are running an older version, this issue may have already been fixed in the current one.

Re: //folder failed not found

The way I did it (running server on Linux, media on my Windows machine), is to mount the media folder through /etc/fstab each time the server boots up. From your description, it looks like you are running on Windows, with media on another Windows machine... I believe you would need to map a drive fr...

Re: Dual Madsonic servers?

No reason in particular, just wondering if it was possible. I know GJ51 has multiple servers running, with at least one "live" server and the others for testing.

Android app, reset server settings?

Not sure what happened or when, but I just realized today that the server settings in my Madsonic app reset back to "factory defaults". I'm still running 5.0, so maybe that has something to do with it, but I just thought it was weird. Not a huge problem as I just put my server settings bac...

Now Playing display issues

Running 3500, may have already been fixed in 3510, but I'm holding off on the update for now... Just got a new album loaded onto my server, added all the songs to my playlist, which only contains these songs, and hit play. Nothing usually happens at this point until I click on the first song from th...

Re: How to use MX Player

Under Settings / General, scroll down until you get to "Enable HTML5 Videoplayer" and enable that. Scroll to the bottom and save settings.

Then go to Cleanup/Tools (also under settings), and click "Reset Video Transcoder to WEBM".

Re: Dual Madsonic servers?

There is a somewhat more flexible way to do this using a reverse proxy. It requires a "server" running Apache (XAMPP) is a good way to get a working Apache setup for Windows) - http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html . ...... You should set port forwarding on your router / modem to for...

Re: Impossible to play Video

What version of Madsonic are you running? I just upgraded to 3500 (from 3480) and now there is an option under Settings/Cleanup Tools that lets you "reset" the video transcoder to WEBM (for HTML5) or back to FLV (for Flash).

Nelgin - that's a good point... I have a ton of stuff from the 80's that was considered "Heavy Metal" when it was released (GnR, etc...) that's considered "Hard Rock" now, and like you said, it's being played on the "classic rock" stations. For me personally though, I t...

Dual Madsonic servers?

I think this would be possible, to have two separate servers running on the same network, both on port 4040 (default), but accessible over the internet via a single domain name, followed by a different port number. I have something similar set up on my router, where I can (for example) put in my dom...

Re: Madsonic 5.0.3480.beta2 debian package

There should be an update to Java 1.7. I'm running: jetty-6.1.x, java 1.7.0_17, Linux (68.7 MB / 109.5 MB) with 3480 as well, on Linux (Centos 6.4), without issues. I would try installing the latest version of Java.

Playlist naming

Apparently, on the Android app, playlists won't work if they have a "/" in the name. It will work on the web interface, but when I try to access via the Android app (on my S3), it pops a java error, stating it can't be found. I just renamed it to replace the / with a -, and it's working fi...

Re: Java version

Since 4.8 (maybe 4.7), Madsonic has used Java 7, as it's more secure and lacks the "holes" that Java 6 has.

There is a version of Madsonic 5.0 beta compiled with Java 6 - just check the download thread for one marked "JAVA6".

Re: subsonic.org

Another thing to try would be to change your *.subsonic.org address and save settings, then wait about a half hour and change it back to your original address.

I did this when my ISP swapped out my cable modem.
