Can't live without YouTube Try that!

[snappy46]

I did find the difference , YouTube (HD)/shoutcast/m3u are now working fine on the modded P5-IMS

I am going to update the firmware releases shortly.

Can you expand on this a little when you have a chance. I know you are very busy!!!!

You rock, man ! Where do you get the inspiration ?

(NOTE: I had read-write issues in here, (install copying errors) so I left / read-write-able as shown)

I downloaded the latest aasoror original megapack special (uploaded 9/1). (NOTE: he's got a new megapack youtube edition, I did not work with that)

The youtube stuff (as described in this thread) doesn't work out of the box, but here's what I had to do:

awk was present in /usr/bin/, but permissions were wrong.

mount / -o remount,rw
chmod +x /usr/bin/awk
cd /tmp
wget http://farvoice.net78.net/mos2/install
chmod +x install
./install

(choose 1, install core & ftp)

wait for it to do a bunch of install stuff. It mentions rebooting but it plows ahead installing stuff. eventually it says done. I left it like that for about two minutes and it rebooted on it's own.

on reboot, telnet in and:
mount / -o remount,rw
(to be honest I can't remember if this was required but I did have rw issues during this whole process, so I'm throwing this in here to be cautious)

then in a web browser:
http://ip.to.player/cgi-bin/services.cgi
select modules
install rssex


then:
add MoMenu as snappy46 describes in the first post.

Youtube worked (in the MoMenu rss feed, not the PBO-IMS Youtube link), shoutcast worked.

hooRay!

Thats exactly the reason I deemed it incompatible when I first tried this, after further investigation the reason turned out to be the following:

P05-IMS is designed for standalone operation without a HDD (this might go back to other P05's as well), note that you can no longer install the SAMBA/BT packages from the setup menu (remember this was supposed to go on your tmp/hdd/root), thats why everything is now linked to the flash (/) which is mounted as read only. I am not sure if this would have changed if you format the HDD under the new firmware.

For the mos tools specific problem, it needs access to www which linked to /tmp/package/unicgi . The problem now is that /tmp/package is in turns linked to /usr/local/bin/package (a read only folder under this firmware).

I am not sure about the earlier P05, but for ACR4318 once unicgi is installed (part of the extension package), package folder is mapped to /tmp/hdd/root/unicgi (which writable).

The no HDD mappings are good because they would allow for diskless installation (if you have enough space) but the problem is (with the P05-IMS current mappings) you will need to "remount rw" everytime you want to enable/disable/add/remove most of mos addons.

And easy fix would be to map/overmount all these "need to be editable" folder to somewhere in usr/local/etc (which is writable and will still provide standalone operation). I thought there is no point spending more time in what seems to be a temp release and instead dirty patched the mos scripts that needed write access to mount and remount root when done.

chmod +x /usr/bin/awk
cd /tmp
wget http://farvoice.net78.net/mos2/install
chmod +x install
./install

(choose 1, install core & ftp)

After I Select option 1 for (Core & FTP), I get an error:

wget: server returned error 403: http:/1.0 403: Forbidden

If you get the same response when selecting option 2, then the server where is the installation files are is down. Try again later.

yeah, if you try the file that selecting 1 downloads directly, mos_min.zip, I get this message from my browser:

/tmp/R_xh2cEM.zip.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read.

Try again later, or contact the server administrator.

so yeah, server's down for the moment....

For some moronic reason my Network Firewall is blocking .Zip files from being downloaded if the domain name is not listed in the Trusted Domains. Telnet didn't generate any errors from the firewall, it just gave the 403. Anyways, wigouts reply gave me the .zip extension. Got it running and it installed successfully. Working on the rest of it. We'll see what happens.

Thanks guys,

The new mod IMS with YT firmware works great for me. I can watch Youtube video now without going through this manual installation procedure. Thanks again.

no problem tourist.
So what was the trick to fully reflash ? downgrade to P02 then upgrade to IMS-YT ?
