Port XBMC for Linux to run on the ASUS O!Play (O'Play / OPlay) media player hardware?
Interesting Topic. I just got a O!Play Air and it's a great little machine.

I was looking on the ASUS web site today and I ran into something very interesting they have the Source Code for the O!Play Air available from the downloads page for O!Play Air. Not sure if it was up there before but I didn't see it.

This link might work. Maybe it will help you guys get some nice software working for this little puppy Smile

Thumbs Up 
Thanks a lot guys!

Transfer speed seem to be maxing out at around 20Mbps over the SAMBA share - is that the hardware limit of the Asus box?

Thanks again!

/dev # df -h
Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root                82.0M     82.0M         0 100% /
/dev/mtdblock/2          40.0M      1.3M     38.7M   3% /usr/local/etc
/dev/rd/0                40.0k     40.0k         0 100% /mnt/rd

I try to mv/cp/rm some files and the Availabe space is allways 0 Smile

Hi,

It's impossible to free space on the 1.21N
The following fonts are not existing anymore :
/usr/local/bin/Resource/arial.ttf /usr/local/bin/Resource/WenQuanYiZH.ttf

I get this error :
# ln -s /usr/local/etc/optware/ /opt
ln: /opt: Cannot allocate memory


Any idea ?

Koenradus Wrote:For those of you who were scared by the stories of bricking your O!Play and decided to install optware on a USB drive: I figured out how to do that today. I had to reinstall optware anyway, because I updated my firmware. It isn't straightforward to install to USB drive because the USB drive needs to be formatted to support symlinks. Here is the full list of commands:

WARNING: YOUR USB-DRIVE WILL BE FORMATTED WHEN CREATING THE NEW FILEFORMAT!

Code:
mount / -o remount,rw

mkdir /opt

mke2fs -j -M /opt -L opt /dev/discs/disc0/part1
mount /dev/discs/disc0/part1 /opt

mkdir /opt/tmp
mkdir /opt/tmp/ipkg

cd /opt/tmp

wget http://www.kovari.priv.hu/download/ipkg-cl.tgz
tar -xvf ipkg-cl.tgz
mv /opt/tmp/ipkg-cl /usr/local/bin/
rm ipkg-cl.tgz

wget http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/oleg/cross/stable/uclibc-opt_0.9.28-13_mipsel.ipk
ipkg-cl install uclibc-opt_0.9.28-13_mipsel.ipk

wget http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/oleg/cross/stable/ipkg-opt_0.99.163-10_mipsel.ipk
ipkg-cl install ipkg-opt_0.99.163-10_mipsel.ipk

rm *.ipk

/opt/bin/ipkg update

This way only ipkg-cl will be installed to the O!Play, all other files will be installed to the USB drive, avoiding bricking due to filling of internal HD.

My friend i try to mkdir /opt and send a message like:" / # mkdir /opt
mkdir: Cannot create directory `/opt': Cannot allocate memory", i try to mount/umont but nothing works, please help. Thx.

Like henryjeanl , i receive the same message. Please, for noob, explain with a little more details please. What are doing wrong?
The problem is with moun/umount..why i "cannot alocate memory", why "cannot mkdir../opt"??

Hello.

I've got a Asus O!Play Air HDP-R3 and a computer with windows 7, and i've problems with the sharing folders. I've done everthing and i can't get the sharing folders to appear in the asus o!play, it ask me for credential everytime.
Here are the steps i've taken so far, with no sucess:
. I've share some folder in my windows 7 computer, and i've tried to see them on my asus, ask me for credential.
. I've created a user in my windows 7 computer, and give him permissions in the sharing folders, and then try to access the sharing folder from my asus o!play and use the user credentials, didn´t work
. I've updated the firmware, still didn´t work...

I dont know what else can i do.... Please someone could help me?

Thanks is advanced.

i manage to alocate memory on extern stick with following command (long live Marcnesium - Asus WL500gP forum):

(sda1 = usb stick, "umount /dev/sda1", then "fdisk /dev/sda1", with following command: d --> n --> p --> 1 --> enter --> enter)

(Please work with me guys..)

mkswap /dev/sda1
swapon /dev/sda1

/ # free
total used free shared buffers
Mem: 120188 86760 33428 0 64
Swap: 524308 0 524308
Total: 644496 86760 557736

IF i understand how it works I PROMISE, to U all nooby like me, to explain more clearly how to install this program. Respect Leogansky for your "Beautiful Mind" but the explain from .nfo simply DON'T WORK! No

Chances are the Asus O!Play Air HDP-R3 is attempting to connect your shares on your Windows 7 machine and it is failing because Microsoft changed their default authentication settings.

Try the following and see if it fixes your issue:

Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Local Security Policy

Local Policies - Security Options

Network security: LAN Manager authentication level
Send LM & NTLM responses

Minimum session security for NTLM SSP
Disable Require 128-bit encryption

Hi and thanks for this useful thread!

I've wanted to add new TVStations to my O!Play. To do that there are many ways (http://minimodding.com/tiki-view_forum_t...e_threaded).

So I decided to add the new url directly into the original files (under /usr/local/bin).

I've done the following steps in order to have some space on / :

mount / -o remount,rw
cd /usr/local/bin/Resource
ls -l
Code:
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        15493 Mar 22 03:38 BRASIL.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        13543 Mar 22 03:38 CHINESE.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        13841 Mar 22 03:38 DUTCH.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        12855 Mar 22 03:38 ENGLISH.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        15710 Mar 22 03:38 FRENCH.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        14342 Mar 22 03:38 GERMAN.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        14623 Mar 22 03:38 ITALIAN.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        18248 Mar 22 03:38 JAPANESE.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        15747 Mar 22 03:38 KOREAN.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        12855 Mar 22 03:38 PORTUGAL.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        23820 Mar 22 03:38 RUSSIAN.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        13306 Mar 22 03:38 SCHINESE.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        14463 Mar 22 03:38 SPANISH.str
-rw-------    1 root     root        25600 Mar 22 03:38 Setup.png
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        13979 Mar 22 03:38 TURKISH.str
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        12855 Mar 22 03:38 VIETNAMESE.str
drwxr-xr-x    1 root     root         2048 Mar 22 03:38 bmp
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root        13889 Mar 22 03:38 id_list.txt
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      2741428 Mar 22 03:38 uEGJBK-VISCII_R04.vcp

No ttf files… So I looked at the size of the files and decided to replace RUSSIAN.str with VIETNAMESE.str.

Code:
cp VIETNAMESE.str RUSSIAN.str
cp: Write Error: No space left on device

oups. I try to remove RUSSIAN.str.
rm RUSSIAN.str

I have a message like error: Directory RUSSIAN.str is not empty

well the problem now is that I do not have RUSSIAN.str anymore and I have not earn extra free space ! This is weird.

I don't understand.
Code:
# df -h
Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root                82.3M     82.3M         0 100% /
/dev/mtdblock/2          40.0M      1.3M     38.7M   3% /usr/local/etc
/dev/rd/0                40.0k     40.0k         0 100% /mnt/rd

Does anybody have a hint in order to restore these files and maybe how to free space in /usr/local/bin?
thanks in advance
