Ive followed th instructions. Installing on windows xp. Xbmc doesnt how up on the itouch. It doe show up on doubletwist on android. Any ideas?

Thanks for this, really straightforward instructions. One question though, in step 16. :

6. sudo nano airplayer Edit user (username), group (id username to find out) and path to where the airplayer.py script is located for me it is “/home/tripkip/PascalW-Airplayer-7a7873e/airplayer/airplayer.py”

Which group do I want? if I "id wild9" then I seem to be a member of a lot of groups?

(clearly I'm a bit of a linux nub)

edit:

Forget it, I realised its my gid name. Although this still didn't make it work until I read the airplayer text more closely in init.d and realised it said to make sure airplayer.py was executeable.

So I tried : Sudo chmod +x /home/wild9/Airplayer/airplayer/airplayer.py and now everything is working perfectly. ( I also did what was in qbase's post above but I am not sure if this was necessary)

Thanks again!

thanks for post saved my time and fixed the problem i was having.

Hello,
I have been using XBMC for some time but this is the first time I have posted.
I have done the howto to the letter but when I get to the point of starting it manually I get this error message.

Code:

2011-09-16 16:31:09 [INFO] Starting Airplayer
Unhandled exception in thread started by <function register_service at 0x9807d14>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/xbmc/Airplay/PascalW-Airplayer/airplayer/bonjour.py", line 19, in register_service
    callBack = register_callback)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pybonjour.py", line 1132, in DNSServiceRegister
    None)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pybonjour.py", line 286, in _errcheck
    raise cls(result)
pybonjour.BonjourError: (-65537, 'unknown')

After some time I found out if I run command “/etc/init.d/avahi-daemon restart” then start airplay it will work, but if I reboot I get the error again.
Thank you for any help you can give.

So one question, i' at the last item:

6. sudo nano airplayer Edit user (username), group (id username to find out) and path to where the airplayer.py script is located for me it is “/home/tripkip/PascalW-Airplayer-7a7873e/airplayer/airplayer.py”

But it's unclear what my group is:



I've tried with adeiko and with 1000 and doesn't work:



Somebody can tell me whats the correct one so i can investigate more xD
