startup blocked by ffmpeg - roadster - 08-03-2015 11:58
My SLAX Linux based system has been running faultlessly for weeks but suddenly it won't start on boot up first time due to this error
Thread-8: ErrorInfo=Streamer: test invocation of FFmpeg failed to complete
The error occurs whether or not the start is interactive ( startc ) or as a daemon ( startd ) and on restart from minimwatch it comes up quickly and correctly.
Just to be on the safe side I have added a symbolic link to /usr/local/bin so that ffmpeg is found by the which ffmpeg command but that made no difference.
I don't think I have made any changes recently except adding a few dozen more music files.
Help or suggestions appreciated - thanks.

Which version of MinimStreamer are you running?
RE: startup blocked by ffmpeg - roadster - 08-03-2015 23:13
Minimserver 0.8.3 update 62
Minimstreamer 0.5.10
Everything 64 bit. Includes a minor update installed today but made no difference.

Thanks for confirming this. I will make a change in the next MinimStreamer update that should (I hope) fix this problem.
