For those of us running Fedora, I've created a script that will repack the deb files into an rpm and make sure the correct dependencies are installed.
There are a few gotchas though...

lame and librtmp:  Both are provided by the rpmfusion-free repository.  If you already have the repository installed in /etc/yum.repos.d you're good to go.  If not, the script will download the rpm that installs the repository.  You'll have to install it manually though.  See below.

This is a 2 stage process....  Building the rpm and installing the rpms.

Building the rpm...
Unzip the attached file.  It will create a mediacenter-20 directory in the current directory.
Run the script passing in the version of MediaCenter you want to package.  

Code: [Select]

cd mediacenter-20/SPECS
# build the 32 bit version of 20.0.110
./rpmb 20.0.110
# or build the 64 bit version of 20.0.110
./rpmb 20.0.110-amd64

The script does the following...
Downloads the MediaCenter deb file if it's not already present.
Downloads the rpmfusion repository rpm if it isn't already present.
Runs the rpmbuild process.

If the script completes successfully, you'll have 2 rpms.  With Fedora 20 and MC 20.0.110 as examples...
mediacenter-20/RPMS/noarch/rpmfusion-free-release-20.noarch.rpm
and either
mediacenter-20/RPMS/i686/MediaCenter-20.0.110-22.fc21.i686.rpm
or
mediacenter-20/RPMS/x66_64/MediaCenter-20.0.110-22.fc21.x86_64.rpm

Code: [Select]

cd ../RPMS/noarch
sudo yum localinstall rpmfusion-free-release-20.noarch.rpm
# Install the 32 bit version
cd ../RPMS/i686
sudo yum localinstall MediaCenter-20.0.110-22.fc21.i686.rpm
# Or install the 64 bit version
cd ../RPMS/x86_64
sudo yum localinstall MediaCenter-20.0.110-22.fc21.x66_64.rpm

You'll have to install rpmfusion first, and separately from, MediaCenter otherwise the MediaCenter rpm won't find lame or librtmp.
The rpms can be copied to any machine with the same Fedora release.

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 9.
Added a libcurl compiled under Fedora 17 which will work with 17+.  This should all but eliminate the chances of needing to build libcurl.

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 10
Fixed the mediacenter.desktop file to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of a file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 11
Removed the need for custom versions of libcurl.

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 12
Added a temporary build of libcrypto++.so.9 compiled with SSE2 while waiting for official Fedora build.
http://tinyurl.com/mediacenter-19-12-zip

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 13
Updated to work with Fedora 20.  Still backwards compatible to fc17.
http://tinyurl.com/mediacenter-19-13-zip

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 13
Added dependency for libboost_regex.
http://tinyurl.com/mediacenter-19-14-zip

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 15
Removed dependency for libcryptopp and libboost_regex.
Fixed script to handle '-' in the version number.  You can now do './rpmb 19.0.103-3'
http://tinyurl.com/mediacenter-19-15-zip

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 17
Updated for Media Center 20
http://tinyurl.com/mediacenter-20-17-zip

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 18
Added a dependency for mesa-libGL
http://tinyurl.com/mediacenter-20-18-zip

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 19
Adjust for duplicate 'media center 20.desktop' file
http://tinyurl.com/mediacenter-20-19-zip

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 20
Adjust for .desktop file rename
Added experimental support for 64 bit package
http://tinyurl.com/mediacenter-20-20-zip

-------------------
Edit: Script Version 22
Merged 32 bit and 64 bit scripts
Changed lib64 -> lib for 64 bit

The binary is named mediacenter19 now (/usr/bin/mediacenter19). If you change that in RemyJ's script it might work.

[RemyJ]

Yeah, I forgot to update the script.   Give me an hour or 2 and I'll upload a new version.

[bob]

Any solution please?

Sorry for the delay.

Updated the script to version 11 and tested it with 19.0.76. 

[RemyJ]

When I removed the external libcurl I may have forgotten to add it to the dependencies.

Try ...

Code: [Select]

yum install libcurl libcurl.i686 libcurl-devel libcurl-devel.i686and see if that helps.

[rinring]

Now I can run it.   
I'll play a little with it, and if I like it, I'll buy it.

Tried the script with a new install of "Fedora Core 19 Desktop 32-bit" inside of VMWare Workstation 10.  

The script was able to install Media Center 19.0.85.

MC is able to find and load the remote library and display all of the album data (posters and meta data).  

Having problems with audio playback.  I will get a brief blip and then nothing.  Playback bar does not progress.

If I set "System Volume", then "Mute" gets checked and can not be unchecked.  Setting to "Internal Volume" unchecks the "Mute".

Also get an X error on startup:

"

None of the XLib errors are important.
You'll probably need to change the ALSA device in options. Try pulseif it's there, try the hardware drivers too. You may also have to use DSP studio to set the output format to 44.1k or 48k for all sample rates.

The script chokes on the new version "19.0.85-1" because of the hyphen in the name.  Renaming the download to "19.0.85_1" and tweaking the script allowed the script to work.

I have a "pulse" option which misbehaves the same.  Also tried putting everything to 44.1.  

Only have "ALSA" or "Null Output" devices in MC-19.

I tried hooking up my W4S DAC2-DSDSE via USB.  Fedora Core 19 recognized the USB Audio interface, but MC-19 did not see it.

The system monitor shows a spike in network usage when selecting a new song for a few seconds demonstrating the track is being transferred, but not played.

GUI interaction appears better in this version, but is still problematic (resizing, repositioning, Z-order and repainting).  Does not behave as well as other desktop windows.

That's all there is in the device section, the "device settings" are the actual physical devices and the system abstractions of them.

I'm not familiar with that DAC but you might not recognize it by name in the device settings list.
You could try
aplay -L at a terminal prompt to list your system audio devices and compare them to the MC list.
MC is only trying to open devices that play PCM.
Supported formats are S16_LE, S24_LE and S32_LE (we start with the 32 bit and work our way down until something opens properly).
If you need to check your devices, download the alsacap utility found here (search this forum) and see what it tells you about your DAC.

Thanks.  I loaded the latest 19.0.89 and got it playing on the laptop by itself.  Had to use the "front card" option versus the system default or pulse options.  This version of MC appears to display the error dialog more consistently.

Will try the W4S USB DAC2-DSDSE next.

Output without the USB DAC2 hooked up:

Did you try speaker-test?

$ speaker-test -Dfront:Interface -c 2 -r 44100 -F S32_LE

[ths61]

Did you try speaker-test?

$ speaker-test -Dfront:Interface -c 2 -r 44100 -F S32_LE

Just gave it a try.  Just get the same noise across all frequency attempts. 

Maybe I have I have something wrong with my Fedora install.

[InflatableMouse]

Is it this one?

It says driverless on Mac and Linux, but I'm afraid I can't help you any further .

That's a pink noise test!
You need to add -tsine to get a tone.
speaker-test -tsine -Dfront:Interface -c 2 -r 44100 -F S32_LE

I updated the original post with version 12 of the script that includes a working cryptopp for builds 19.0.90 and beyond.

Thanks much !!!

[RemyJ]

Updated to version 13 so the build works with Fedora 17-20.

[azathot]

Thanks for your work on this. I have it installed under Fedora 20 x64 (app doesn't work very well, no window resizing and crashes), but it does load.

Welcome to the forum.  Are you using 19.0.94?  Resizing should be working.

http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=86011.0

Thanks, long time user, but figured I would jump on the linux side because it's my main OS at work.

I'm using Fedora 20 x64 (with an O2 dac).

I was using the previous build (19.0.94).  In 19.0.102, I can resize by holding down alt, grabbing a section of the window and guessing how far to move the window (I am unable to grab the edge of a window to resize). I receive a ton of visual lag then it starts to move the window very slowly and eventually stops.

Still trying to get it to play sound, does anyone have a good guide for disabling pulse and configuring ALSA to work with Media Center?

[InflatableMouse]

You don't have to disable pulse, you should be able to directly 'speak' to the ALSA device (often called hw:something). This will bypass pulse.

There are several threads about fixing sound and I've helped a few people with it. I'm totally not familiar with Fedora though, sorry. Have a look at some of the other threads and ask if you need more help.

[RemyJ]

Yeah, you can lust leave the audio settings at their defaults...  ALSA as the device and (Default) under Device Settings.    You can then use the Pulse mixer to direct the audio anywhere.

BTW, I just updated the scripts to account for the libboost_regex dependency introduced in 19.0.103.

[azathot]

Thanks guys. In the previous builds, I was unable to see an Audio device.  103-2 is actually working for playing audio for me. 

RemyJ, your script is having issues with the -2 in the version field, I just renamed it to 103 and it builds correctly.

[RemyJ]

RemyJ, your script is having issues with the -2 in the version field, I just renamed it to 103 and it builds correctly.

Yeah, I keep forgetting to fix that.  I'll upload a new script today.

[RemyJ]

Yeah, I keep forgetting to fix that.  I'll upload a new script today.

Script version 15 removes the libcryptopp and libboost-regex dependencies and now handles the '-' in the version number.

[aoqw76]

Hi, just tried latest number 15 build + 103-3 and has this error (fedora 20 32 bit, within virtualbox for testing purposes)

[robert@localhost SPECS]$ ./rpmb 19.0.103-3
./rpmb: line 38: wget: command not found <--- fixed this by checking the "rpmb" script and putting the .deb file in the right place.
./rpmb: line 43: wget: command not found <--- fixed this by checking the "rpmb" script and manually downloading the file

[RemyJ]

You need to install wget...     yum install wget

The boost issue is my fault.  I'll correct it in the next version of the script but in the mean time you can edit mediacenter-19.spec and remove the references to boost-regex and boost-devel from line 14.

[aoqw76]

perfect, thanks, installed and running.

[psal]

Hey,
I had this running perfectly on F20 for a while, but now it says it has timed out. I originally used script 13, but I uninstalled and reinstalled with script 15. Same issue occurs. I did purchase the licence key, but I do not know how to install it? Anyway, this is what happens when I try to open it

Anyone know how to solve this problem?

Download and install the latest build of MC for Linux.  They have hard timeouts right now.  That will change soon.

I tried that and the same thing is happening. Maybe because I had the latest build that timed out? Is there one newer than 19.0.103-3?

[Awesome Donkey]

Is there one newer than 19.0.103-3?

Yes, 19.0.118, for which the release topic is pinned at the top of this forum section.

[maged918]

What should one do to update the installed build? Just redo the steps?

[RemyJ]

That's it.  Just re-run the rpmb command and do a 'yum localinstall' on the new rpm.

[RemyJ]

Just FYI...

With build 138 and beyond MC needs SSL to do the registration and that will need a file named ca-certificates.crt in /etc/ssl/certs.  The file name is different in Fedora so you'll have to add the following link...

cd /etc/ssl/certs
ln -s /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem/tls-ca-bundle.pem ca-certificates.crt

[maged918]

Works great, thank yoU!

[RemyJ]

Updated for MediaCenter 20.  See the first post.

[maged918]

Tried it with 20.0.6 & 20.0.7 and it doesn't work for both :/ Says file is not a debian format archive.

[RemyJ]

Tried it with 20.0.6 & 20.0.7 and it doesn't work for both :/ Says file is not a debian format archive.

I think they changed the location of the download. 
20.0.6 was in http://files.jriver.com/mediacenter/channels/v19/latest/MediaCenter-20.0.6.deb
20.0.7 is in http://files.jriver.com/mediacenter/channels/v20/latest/MediaCenter-20.0.7.deb

Just change the rpmb script so it's pointing to the correct directory.   You have to remove the bad .deb files from the SOURCES directory before you retry.

I'll update the zip file later today.

[RemyJ]

Updated to version 18 of the script to add the dependency for mesa-libGL.

[psal]

Hey,

I just attempted to install MC20 on Fedora20 using script 18. It seemed to install successfully. However, when I try to open in, it will not open. When I run mediacenter20 in terminal, I am given "Segmentation fault (core dumped)". Does any one have an idea of what the cause of this is?

[RemyJ]

Make sure you have 'gnutls' installed.   I need to update the spec file again.

[psal]

Make sure you have 'gnutls' installed.   I need to update the spec file again.

Yes, gnutls is installed with latest update.

[RemyJ]

Hmmm.  Were you able to run earlier versions like 20.0.22?
