Serviio

Introduction

Serviio (http://serviio.org) is a DLNA server, allowing you to share media (Photos, Audio and Video) files to compatible devices.
Serviio has a wide range of DLNA Profile support, including many TVs, Disc Players, PS3 and XBox360. It also allows transcoding and container changing.
It is written in Java and it works with Sun Java or Iced-Tea from rpmforge. Packages ffmpeg and mencoder are installed for transcoding.

Instalation

Start by make a serviio ibay - this creates a serviio user and somewhere for the web-based console. Set it for
local internet access only,
allow executable content

Now run this on shell:

wget https://github.com/downloads/mpemberton5/Web-UI-for-Serviio/WebUI%20v1.0.zip
unzip "WebUI v1.0.zip"
cp -Rf serviioweb/* /home/e-smith/files/ibays/serviio/html
rm -f /home/e-smith/files/ibays/serviio/html/index.html

And now the encoding tools:

db yum_repositories set rpmforge repository \
Name 'Dag - EL5' \
BaseURL 'http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/$basearch/dag' \
EnableGroups no \
GPGCheck yes \
GPGKey http://dag.wieers.com/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt \
Visible no \
Exclude freetype,htop,iptraf,rsync,syslinux \
status disabled

signal-event yum-modify

yum install ffmpeg mplayer mencoder libdvdnav vobcopy java-1.7.0-icedtea --enablerepo=rpmforge

And finally the Serviio :

wget http://download.serviio.org/releases/serviio-0.6.2-linux.tar.gz
tar -xvf serviio-0.6.2-linux.tar.gz
mv serviio-0.6.2 /opt/serviio
chown -R serviio:serviio /opt/serviio/library
mkdir /opt/serviio/log
chown -R serviio:serviio /opt/serviio/log
mkdir -p /var/service/serviio
mkdir -p /var/service/serviio/log

cd /var/service/serviio

Now create a new file run

vi /var/service/serviio/run

containing

#!/bin/sh

# Set up correct LANG
LANG=en_US
export LANG

SERVIIO_HOME="/opt/serviio"
export SERVIIO_HOME

# Setup the JVM
if [ "x$JAVA" = "x" ]; then
    if [ "x$JAVA_HOME" != "x" ]; then
	JAVA="$JAVA_HOME/bin/java"
    else
	JAVA="java"
    fi
fi

# Setup the classpath
SERVIIO_CLASS_PATH="$SERVIIO_HOME/lib/*:$SERVIIO_HOME/config"

# Setup Serviio specific properties
JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dderby.system.home=$SERVIIO_HOME/library -Dserviio.home=$SERVIIO_HOME"

exec 2>&1
# Execute the JVM in the foreground
exec setuidgid serviio "$JAVA" -Xmx384M -Xms20M -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:MinHeapFreeRatio=10 -XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=20 $JAVA_OPTS -classpath "$SERVIIO_CLASS_PATH" org.serviio.MediaServer "$@"         

Now we'll create a new file named run

cd /var/service/serviio/log 
vi /var/service/serviio/log/run

containing

#!/bin/sh
exec                                    \
    /usr/local/bin/setuidgid smelog     \
    /usr/local/bin/multilog t s5000000  \
    /var/log/serviio

Now the configurations to make all those work:

mkdir -p /var/log/serviio
touch /var/service/serviio/down
db configuration set serviio service status enabled TCPPort 8895 UDPPort 1900 access private
ln -s /var/service/serviio /service/serviio
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/daemontools /etc/rc.d/init.d/supervise/serviio
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/e-smith-service /etc/rc7.d/S98serviio
chmod 755 /var/service/serviio/run
chmod 755 /var/service/serviio/log/run
chown smelog:smelog /var/log/serviio
chmod a+rw /var/log/serviio

db accounts setprop serviio PHPBaseDir /home/e-smith/files/ibays/serviio/html/:/tmp

edit /opt/serviio/config/logj4.xml using

vi /opt/serviio/config/logj4.xml

and change the logfile location to

<param name="File" value="/var/log/serviio/serviio.log" />

Make a masq template fragment to allow multicast on the internal interface

mkdir /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc
mkdir /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d
mkdir /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d/init.d
mkdir /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq
touch 39AddMulticastRoute
touch 40DenyMulticast

Then edit file /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq/39AddMulticastRoute

vi /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq/39AddMulticastRoute

to contain

# add a multicast route on the internal interface for DLNA
    /sbin/route add -net 239.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 $INTERNALIF

edit /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq/40DenyMulticast using

vi /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq/40DenyMulticast

and insert

    # Drop all multicast traffic. Note that anything on from a local network
    # will have already been accepted via the local_chk chain.
    /sbin/iptables --append INPUT -s 224.0.0.0/4    -j denylog
    /sbin/iptables --append INPUT -d 224.0.0.0/4    -j denylog
    
{
    $OUT .= "    /sbin/iptables --append OUTPUT -s 224.0.0.0/4 -d $LocalIP  -j ACCEPT\n"; 
    $OUT .= "    /sbin/iptables --append OUTPUT -d 224.0.0.0/4 -s $LocalIP  -j ACCEPT\n";
}
    /sbin/iptables --append OUTPUT -s 224.0.0.0/4 -d $OUTERNET  -j denylog
    /sbin/iptables --append OUTPUT -d 224.0.0.0/4 -s $OUTERNET -j denylog

Expand the template and restart services

expand-template /etc/rc.d/init.d/masq
service masq restart
service serviio start

Final Configuration

You can now browse to http://your_Server_ip/serviio to complete configuration.

Content directories you add must be readable by the Serviio user. Ibays readable by everyone are ok.
I have used the SharedFolders (http://http://wiki.contribs.org/SharedFolders)contrib for some media, so I had to set those to ManualPermissions and added a read ACL for serviio.

At the present time (19/10/2012) the working solution is Serviio 1.0.1 with Ajax UI 0.6.2-f from http://kairoh.bitbucket.org/serviio-webui -> https://bitbucket.org/kairoh/serviio-webui/wiki/History
