I installed minidlna to my Gargoyle 1.5.9. The current package seems to be minidlna-1.0.24-1. It is not perfectly compatible with Gargoyle, they've done something with the configuration and startup:

Code: Select all

# opkg files minidlna
Package minidlna (1.0.24-1) is installed on root and has the following files:
/etc/init.d/minidlna
/usr/bin/minidlna
/etc/config/minidlna

I googled around a bit and it seems that OpenWRT has some kind of web based configuration thing which uses /etc/config/minidlna. This file is not a minidlna config file, instead it's something which is used to generate /etc/minidlna.conf. See here: http://diantokam.blogspot.fi/2012/11/op ... erver.html

I got enough information from openwrt wiki and other sources to write a good conf. But even worse is that /etc/init.d/minidlna has been changed to work only with the new config thingy. Next, I'm trying to hunt down an older init.d script.

So... if you use minidlna, don't update it yet, or at least save the startup script and conf file.
