Open the web interface (usually) at http://localhost:49152/, and hit the "filesystem" link in the upper
left corner to add media to the server.
At the time of writing MediaTomb only supports the PS3-native mpeg4 video-format, so you'll
probably be better of just adding your music and pictures.
As observant reader humiliator pointed out, to enable mediatomb to start at boot, edit /etc/default/
mediatomb with nano:
$ sudo nano /etc/default/mediatomb
and change the lines containing:
# set this to "" if you want to start the MediaTomb daemon
NO_START="yes"
#NO_START=""
to the following:
# set this to "" if you want to start the MediaTomb daemon
#NO_START="yes"
NO_START=""
you would also want to edit the init-script to use the config-file we just made:
$ sudo nano /etc/init.d/mediatomb
The line starting with D_ARGS should look like this:
D_ARGS="-c /etc/mediatomb/config.xml -d -u $USER -g $GROUP -P $PIDFILE -l
$LOGFILE"
Now you can test the init-script with the following commands:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/mediatomb start|stop|restart
