I had it running in a FreeBSD 9 Jail and have it now running in a FreeBSD 10 Jail.

Out of my mind:
- install openjdk-jdk7 from ports or pkg
- install mencoder from ports or pkg
- install mplayer from ports or pkg
- install ffmpeg from ports or pkg
- point to them in UMS.conf

Code: Select all

mencoder_path = /usr/local/bin/mencoder
ffmpeg_path = /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg
mplayer_path = /usr/local/bin/mplayer
- Make the usual adjustments in UMS.conf like "folders" and probably other stuff - depending on your needs.

Sorry for the revival of an old thread, but does anyone have details on how to make this work? I have no problems with installing ffmpeg, etcc.. But I am unable to transcode files. In the debug log I receive an exit code of 1! for each. Essentially, I am unable to transcode anything
