Jinzora Media Server...
Jinzora is a web based media streaming and management system, written in PHP.
Streaming your media with Jinzora gives you quick and easy access to your online music and video collection from any device with a web browser.
Enjoy your media from your PC, notebook, PDA, Smart Phone, Xbox, PS3 or Wii.
Use Jinzora in Jukebox Mode to control a hardware device like your stereo set or Squeezebox and third-party software, including MPD, VLC and Shoutcast.
Install Instructions for Jinzora
- Download the Jinzora tarball - As of this writing, at: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/jinzora/jz275.tar.gz
- You can use
wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/jinzora/jz275.tar.gz
- Untar the app into a location of your choice say in your home directory (with tar -xzvf jz275.tar.gz)
- This creates a folder called jinzora2
- In the case of jinzora, it needs the following step:
nano /var/hda/web-apps/jinzora2/.htaccess
- comment all the lines (put a "#" in front) ctrl-x, and y to save
- Create an Amahi web app in the Web Apps tab, under setup
- For the root path of the app, point it to the root path of the web app you just untarred (/home/USERNAME/jinzora2/)
- Create the app - give it a name of your choice, say jinzora
- The app should be available as http://jinzora
- Note that that url may take a bit to propagate. You can also try http://jinzora.home.com (assuming home.com is your home domain), which may propagate faster.
- At this point your basic app configuration should be up and running. The next step is to create a mysql database and a user for it. See this page (except use, say, jinzora for the username and jinzora for the password, or whatever you like): http://forums.amahi.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=71&p=229#p229
- After that, jinzora should be ready to continue install ...
- Navigate to the jinzora2 directory
cd /var/hda/web-apps/jinzora2
- Your web server needs write permissions to some of the Jinzora files. To write log files and cached pages for example. We've created a script called 'configure.sh' that sets the required permissions. First, the script needs to be made executable:
chmod 744 configure.sh
- Run the script to set permissions:
sh ./configure.sh
- Use a browser and go to http://jinzora/
- Now you can setup jinzora
