Mediainfo Plugin

[randac56]

do you have mediainfo installed?

if so do you have the path set in the conf.php for the plugin?

 

[peshua19]

I copied the mediainfo binary found in this thread into /usr/bin then edited conf.php. Same message.

Admittedly, the mediainfo binary might not be the right one for my hardware but the message suggests it just can't find it.

 

[lisas4567]

you'd need more than just the binary.

It has dependencies.

make sure you have them.


If the binary works manually then just comment out

Code:
rtorrent.remote: error

in plugins/mediainfo/plugin.info

Code:
rtorrent.remote: error

This code mean: if rtorrent is not running on the some host as ruTorrent then generate error. It hasn't relation to this problem.

mediainfo binary 1) must be in PATH 2) must have executable flag.

ahh, forgive me...too much ambien before writing that post.


but yah, there is a dependencies for mediainfo....i wanna say it's called libzen

 

[peshua19]

I think it was because I didn't give it the executable flag. Now the message has gone.

But... the mediainfo option doesn't show up when I right click. Don't sweat it, but it would be cool to work out what's happening.

How hard would it be to add a export to .txt to this plugin.

 

[simur612]

How would I go about installing this?

In debian & distros you can install media using the package manager (apt-get install mediainfo).
Not sure about the included features which they offer in their package.

I think there are no packages for RHEL (or maybe fedora has one).

I know I'm digging up an old thread but this may be useful to someone in the future
