ttyridal / phpdlna Goto Github PK

Hi,

As far as I can tell the php runs ok, but I am struggling to figure out exactly how to use it.

An example would be great, including how to use the debug/logging.

Looks like it could be very useful.

I coded php many years ago, but am only now returning to it, so I am a bit rusty to say the least.

Many thanks

Andy

I have a folders names which appear to be truncated when displayed in the list. Whatever they can be properly opened and content is accessible.
It seems to happen with folder name with a like [ mydomain.com ] my wonderfull folder because of the point in the square bracket. With such a name the folder appear as [ mydomain

I configured a server on http://dlna.digitalk7.com/phpdlna/rootDesc.xml but it doesn't work. I get strange error messages. I also tried to configure Kodi with this URL but I'm not sure how to do it, never used Kodi as a renderer for such a remote server.

I'm not using the UDP broadcast, I'm simply putting the URL on my UPnP client, which is a procedure that works with other remote-non-broadcast servers.

Is there any debug messages I can send you to help me fix this ?

Thank you in advance

Hi,
Your code is a little confusing. I am trying to use it to implement DLNA in a PHP application that already can handle media. The application will be used on an embedded device, and I want DLNA devices to be able to use it.

I understand how the announcer works, but was unable to see how it is used in the PHP. I'm interested in a PHP library that does what you do, rather than a PHP application.
Can you help?

From the apache logs I can see some clients requesting a truncated URL where there are spaces in the path (resulting in a error), and testing with VLC logs failures for all paths containing spaces (without actually making a server request).

Quick fix seems to be to rawurlencode the path as it assembled in lookup_real_path, and in BrowseDirectChildren which replaces the spaces with %20 and seems to fix the VLC issue.
