Thanks a lot for the swift effort to help!
Well, the server still works, but there's not "Threads=" setting, so what did I do wrong?
http://github.com/solmis/knots/archives/master
and overwrite the stuff in your Knots folder and run the migrate.cmd and restart the server.
And when you do test it, copypaste the venc parameter to "video encoder" field in the transcoding profile. Let me know if it works, I didn't get image with any profile in OS X.

Guess they rewrote the telnet module, I need to check if the new one is nicer to use. In the meantime, try changing the command a bit:
line 219: lib/vlc.rb change --intf=telnet to --intf=oldtelnet, if that doesn't help, try changing all telnet references to oldtelnet.
Server should allow you to connect even if VLC doesn't work so check that you don't have firewall blocking access.

http://github.com/solmis/knots/archives/master
and overwrite the stuff in your Knots folder and run the migrate.cmd and restart the server.
And when you do test it, copypaste the venc parameter to "video encoder" field in the transcoding profile. Let me know if it works, I didn't get image with any profile in OS X.
Anywho, your comment about pasting the venc parameter into the video encoder field sorta threw me.. the "threads=" parameter isn't a sub-parameter for venc, it's on par with height/width etc, so I was expecting that it had a seperate input field as such - but maybe I'm wrong, or just plain misunderstood you?
Example from the thread on videolan you linked to previously:
-#transcode{vcodec=h264,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels =2,deinterlace,threads=4,vb=2000,venc=x264{keyint= 120,bpyramid,chroma-me,me-range=8,ref=1,ratetol=1.0,8x8dct,mixed-refs,direct=auto,direct-8x8=-1,non-deterministic,scenecut=50}}

vcodec to video_format
acodec to audio_format
vb to video_bitrate
ab to audio_bitrate
channels to audio_channels
venc to video_encoder
etc.

But alas, I'm a complete noob when it comes to anything remotely linux, and I've never used GIT before.
However, following the guide on the Knots2 Wiki page, I managed to download a "Knots" folder with 31 megabytes of files resembling a subset of the files in the C:\program files\Knots folder - so I figured I should copy the folder from GIT into this one.
Well, the server still works, but there's not "Threads=" setting, so what did I do wrong?
