I have spent ages on this so I am really happy that I got this to work. I was unable to find much documentation on the interwebs on this so I wanted to document this in case someone runs into the same problem I did. Supersonic is a version of Subsonic with restrictions removed. Subsonic has a 30 day limit on mobile app use. Key feature to me. I wanted to be able to play much in jukebox mode, using my Android device as the remote....
My iPXE setup is coming along just lovely, and it is working out just fine. My goal is to avoid scurrying around like a headless chicken looking for USB flash drives and optical media whenever I have to work on someone’s system. This part usually takes the most out of me when I am fixing a system as I can never seem to find install media, usb drives and my tools....
Network Booting my WinPe image with pxelinux has been an illusive goal of mine. I got it working :-). Get iPXE I downloaded iPXE into my home folder: git clone git://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git cd ipxe/src make cp bin/undionly.kpxe /tftproot/ PXE Chainloading I have configured my network to chainload iPXE using the “undionly.kpxe” image. I configured my dhcp server (dd-wrt) to point to my tftp server which runs on my NAS. I placed “undionly....
I have been using Growl for Windows for a few months and I think it is a very cool application. I use it mostly at home with Sickbeard and Couchpotato. In Sickbeard, when a show is snatched, that is the show has been submitted to your download manager (Transmission in my case) a notification will be sent to growl. When the the download has been completed, a notification will be sent to growl....
I grabbed this card from my local computer shop without doing any research. I was very excited and eager to get my home NAS up and running. I was soon disappointed after installing and configuring one hard drive. I was using freeNas then and the write speeds where terribly slow. This was one of the main reasons why I started looking for another NAS solution other than freeNAS. When I migrated to OpenMediaVault this card seemed to have much better Linux support....

I wanted a reliable home media server and so far the process to get this up and running has been very fun and rewarding. This is where I store my movies, tv shows and music. I’m a big fan of XBMC and I wanted to set up sharing the xbmc database through mysql to all my clients. I also wanted to be able to stream my music to multiple clients. Initially I used daap but I have since moved on to SubSonic....
Subsonic to the world!! After a little searching I found a SubSonic AddOn that works with XBMC Frodo. I am running the nightly builds for Windows and ATV2. As per this forum post: I find XBMC to be the best experience on a Mac or PC for interacting with my remote Subsonic server. I wanted to try it with the pre-Alpha builds of XBMC Frodo to take advantage of the new audio engine....
