Missing MediaInfo

[vfr_nz]

After a clean install on both LinuxMint 15 (32 and 64 bit) UMS is unable to
find "zen", libzen.so and "MediaInfo", libmediainfo.so.
Both these libraries are installed.

06-10 19:59:45 Make sure you have libmediainfo and libzen installed
06-10 19:59:45 The server will now use the less accurate FFmpeg parsing method

Any suggestions please.

Have you tried downloading and installing from here http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en/Download this is what I used, you say these are installed...but so did my Linux distro, using this site solved the error.

I just had this exact issue (one of many problems I'm trying to resolve) on Ubuntu 12.04 Server.

In my case the problem was that the symlinks to /usr/lib were set up incorrectly, so I just set up new ones without *.0 on the end:

mediainfo:

Code: Select all

$ locate mediainfo
/usr/lib/libmediainfo.so.0
/usr/lib/libmediainfo.so.0.0.0

Code: Select all

$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libmediainfo.so.0 /usr/lib/libmediainfo.so

libzen:

Code: Select all

$ locate libzen
/usr/lib/libzen.so.0
/usr/lib/libzen.so.0.0.0

Code: Select all

$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libzen.so.0 /usr/lib/libzen.so

i'm getting this error message in logs about missing mediainfo file, have to fallback on ffmpeg

ums v5.2.0

Just noticed the same thing here !

Do you have MediaInfo installed? We don't bundle it for Linux

[blipi]

Try:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install mediainfo libzen-dev libmediainfo-dev

I also had this problem and solved it by installing those 2 dev packages. Good luck

Cheers Guys .. I'm running 64bit mint linux and have latest java installed.. for other stuff
I did the mediainfo and libzen stuff and that now I can see the renderer " Android"
on the setup page of UMS. it's registered..
I have had UMS 5.3 and 32bit mint running no probs on another machine and I thought
while I was on holidays to rebuild a pre loved pc and install UMS again on 64bit mint.
I'm running uPnPlay from from playstore on a Samsung Note 3 and it has worked
previously.
I'm running UMS 6.0.0 and it all seems to go but I can't see the ums server and directories
any clues.

Turn off the firewall. If the issue still persists, create a new thread and post debug files as described on top of the page.

All solved re renderer, I had some java IO issues after trawling thru
the logs and they were solved by downloading a complete ffmpeg
and redoing the UMS config.
Thanks for your hints all is now working fine

Thanks alberteim
