After I just found out how to run the setup.sh file all is good. Beeing a n00b it took me a while to discover that I had to write

Code:
sudo bash setup.sh xbmc

kudos for doing the job!

When I tried to install this I get that makemkv was unsuccessful. I tried to rerun the setup.sh file a few more times with no luck and now when I try to open Swiss Army Knife in XBMC 10.1 (as OS) it says that configured ssh user is not current user. I feel like I am making things worse. I have entered a few different names for the ssh step of the setup.sh file (is there a specific way to enter this)

A) How can I fix these two things or
B) Remove all progress and start over with the latest version.

I am currently trying to use sak-svn-snapshot-09032011.zip

I am still pretty new to this and do not know how to properly get this going with the tar.gz compression. (I know how to dpkg but I do not know what to do with the .deb files from there)

Again I am using XBMC 10.1 as my OS on a Jetway HBJC231C63P-330D-B

This is the last step to getting my HTPC running how I want it!

Use this thread to post questions, this one needs to be closed.

edit :
could we use this thread in the futue ....

Also, you need to right click on the SAK and go to add on settings. That is where you setup the ssh login and other stuff. All plugins have that option, jsut some of them do not need a addon set up, SAK does.

From the command line in a terminal enter ssh yourusername@localhost and if it does not ask for a password and opens another session, then that is what you put in the add on settings within SAK (type exit to end session). Otherwise you need to rm .ssh from your home directory then start from scratch with setting up ssh no passwd user login. Good luck.

I had a "fun" time getting this to work on gentoo . . . haha. One thing I'd suggest is using sshpass or some other authentication . . . basically I changed line 411 of resources/lib/Linux.py to this:
Code:
commandexec = "sshpass -p 'whywouldigiveawaymypassword' ssh " + __configLinux__[6] + " " + __configLinux__[40] + command + " "

And it seems to work so far, or at least doesn't crash XBMC as soon as I try to start it.


For those running Gentoo, the multimedia overlay (read: layman) has ebuilds for both makemkv and handbrake, which makes the process a little easier Smile.

Hi,

I've tried SAK add-on, noticed that it installs a HUGE amount of extra stuff, and decided to remove it. Used the deinstall.sh script provided. Guess what?
IT REMOVED EVERYTHING, including: xbmc, telnet, ftp, even ssh.
I wonder why, and would someone be willing to fix this? Luckily, I had a system backup...

This is the list of software that will be removed ...

apt-get remove --purge mencoder
apt-get remove --purge netcat original-awk dvdauthor mkisofs gddrescue
apt-get remove --purge dvd+rw-tools lsdvd dvdbackup
apt-get remove --purge submux-dvd subtitleripper transcode mjpegtools libdvdcss2
apt-get remove --purge liba52-0.7.4 libfaac0 libmp3lame0 libmp4v2-0 libogg0 libsamplerate0 libx264-85 libxvidcore4
apt-get remove --purge libbz2-1.0 libgcc1 libstdc++6 zlib1g
apt-get remove --purge build-essential lynx libc6-dev libssl-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libqt4-dev

I DO NOT SEE FTP OR SSH OR XBMC OR TELNET ... ?

Trying to troubleshoot to see why I can transcode some DVD's and others not so much. If I run check-mkv.sh, I get...

[: 172: 0: unexpected operator

Can anyone speak as to what those operator errors mean?
