[SOLVED] uShare 1.1a w/ Fedora 12

arashi256 · 01-21-2010, 04:25 PM

I am trying to stream video from my Fedora 12 server to my XBox 360 via uShare 1.1a. I have opened the port I have specified in the ushare.conf file and in verbose mode, uShare sees every video I want to share. The XBox sees the uShare under "Computer", but I get a connection timeout when trying to connect to it. /var/log/messages shows no errors with uShare. I can connect to the uShare web interface without any problems.

Any ideas? Most people seem to be using uShare with Ubuntu, which isn't much help to me.

how many interfaces you have on your linux box? I remember I have that problem once and it was due routing issues, the ushare shows on the xbox but never got the video.

I wrote two posts about this, XBOX streaming and Linux streaming

If you xbox still fails after follow the steps on my blog maybe you can try to share between linux, its always easier to debug on linux.

Fixed, thanks. For some reason, starting ushare from the init script as a service fails to work, but starting it from the command line works just fine. Surprised nobody has run into this before really...

I running as a service but just after everything else started, try to add your script as a S99 on /etc/rc3.d/

Cool - thanks. I'll try that.
