With 1M plus on docker, perhaps I will look into it. Thanks for your continuing support on this thread. I personally would just try to get it running through docked-ce, but since docker in openwrt is also rather new this will be a bumpy journey. Usually such big packages are passion projects of individuals, that just don't take "no" for an answer. PS: Ultimately you need someone that wants to actually run LMS on there openwrt router and is willing to create/test/maintain the package. The current 7.9 Netgear NAS arm package is 23 MB, while this is quite big it would fit on 32+MB devices, without a extroot. I guess the main reason "was" that you needed to setup a extroot, since the final LMS package will be quite big, see this old discussion. Not really, while the docker image has decent 1m+ downloads and the LMS ecosystem seems well and alive, it seems not really popular to run on router hardware.
#Logitech media server how to#
We have a few UPNP/media server packages, that are more geared towards lower spec router hardware, maybe check those out:ĭo you know how to get the word to them about this very common and free server? or just share there collection via vpn + sft/smb/nfs/webdav and use a client that can access the files directly over network/internet. I think most use some other form of music streaming/server/client setup, like UPNP/DLNA/Bluetooth/Sonos. Maybe, never came across LMS before myself.

Is it possible the people who write packages and put stuff in master do not know about LMS.

Look at my post about LXC, for advice, if needed Request for LXC support in MVEBU With the services of LXC for OpenWRT, you may get support of network and isolated debian systems !

Now you can apt or dpkg install LMS serverĪDVICE : a better solution is to use fully fonctionnal LXC container. Start your chroot of export mount -t proc chproc mount -t sysfs chsys mount -t devpts chpts mount -t devtmpfs chdev $TARGET'dev' || mount -bind /dev chroot $TARGET /bin/bash #chroot $TARGET /usr/bin/squeezelite -o default:CARD=Set -s 127.0.0.1 -zĪdd the script to startup automaticcaly while you start OpenWRT #chroot $TARGET service logitechmediaserver restart #chroot $TARGET /etc/init.d/logitechmediaserver restart Mount -t devtmpfs chdev $TARGET'dev' || mount -bind /dev $TARGET'dev' Make a script for the services chrooted startup Make a new container for a DEBIAN lxc-create -name myLMS -template downloadĪrm64 (replace with your own CPU platform !!!) It is a quick and dirty tips to help making pseudo container when your OpenWRT device DO NOT support LXC ! I am using lxc to create the chroot but if lxc is supported, the best case is to use lxc container instead of chroot. Here is a small guide for the chroot method on OpenWRT.
