Description John Gorst 2006-02-07 09:56:32 UTC

Ubuntu breezy
Slimserver 6.5b1 .deb package
Alienbbc 1.01

When enabling file type RTSP in 'file types' slimserver would complain it could not find mplayer.sh despite it being in /usr/share/slimserver/Bin with appropraite user/group/permissions

If I copied mplayer.sh to /usr/bin then slimserver would find it and alienbbc would run.

Is this a bug in slimserver or the slimserver deb package not setting up the appropriate places to look for binary apps.

use OSDetect::dirsFor

I'm on debian, but don't have it set up from the deb.  This should work.  I had to add a check for handling the Bin dir, however.

Attached output is generated when changing settings on servers settings - filetypes after applying the proposed patch.

Only a short mention of mplayer.sh now that it is found
