Hmm Ubuntu Jaunty reports..

Code:
Reading state information... Done
Package libavcodec-unstripped-51 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package libavcodec-unstripped-51 has no installation candidate
Mediaubuntu repo is active.

Does it work without it? You may have to recompile ffmpeg yourself with proper support for xvid/libmp3lame to get it working properly. Otherwise you may end up with no sound or just sound. If you get image without sound, try using mpga as the audio codec in n8x0 profile. I'll check if there are better instructions for jaunty, I just took them from the wiki which seems outdated.

EDIT: Added an easy to follow guide for proper ffmpeg on Jaunty to install instructions.

Cleaned up and installed new Windows server package; this seems much more stable: crashes seem to have stopped, but media indexing still seems buggy: are we relying on a specific version of VLC? I'm using a preinstalled version at the moment. More to the point, when attempting to play back an avi on the Nokia client, the CLIENT crashes. Any thoughts?

UPDATE: updated VLC install; that seems to have fixed the client-side problems. More to come.

Please make sure you have the latest, it needs to be at least 0.9, but 1.0 just got released so be sure to install that. And make sure video plays with a browser first using Browser-profile.

OK: things are now MUCH much better. Will test further to see if killing the server manually still leaves hanging VLC.exe process. In the meantime, here's a fun question: can we get the video encoding to respect the aspect ratio of the source material?

That bad? You can use 4:3 or 16:9 aspects manually, no aspect is just the default.

Where do you set it? Yes; it's that bad IMHO. Maybe it's just me, but I have a thing about stretched and squashed video. And, as we all know, the N8x0 screen is neither fish nor fowl: its dimensions are 15:9 (for some baffling reason).

In brighter news, I'm now screening DVD-quality VOB files on the N800 with only slight pixelation/break-up issues, so we're light-years beyond where we were 24 hours ago!

...and yes, VLC.exe now terminates properly on server exit. Hurrah!
