fsutil 8dot3name query c:

• Ensure the target directories are not in use by the system:
  • If the warnings show paths with "Program Files" reboot Windows in Safe Mode with command prompt. The reason for this is that in normal mode the Program Files folders are always in use by running programs, so the system won't allow any changes (e.g. setting short names).
  • Otherwise make sure PMS/UMS is not running and open a command window.
  
  
• Enable 8dot3 (with prompt at drive c:):

  fsutil behavior set disable8dot3 0

• Set short names for your Program Files and/or PMS/UMS directories as appropriate, i.e. run one or more of the following commands:

  fsutil file setshortname "Program Files" PROGRA~1
  fsutil file setshortname "Program Files (x86)" PROGRA~2
  fsutil file setshortname "Program Files (x86)\Universal Media Server" UNIVER~1
  fsutil file setshortname "Program Files (x86)\PS3 Media Server" PS3MED~1
  

• (Optional) set the 8dot3name behavior back to the original setting (returned by the initial query cmd, e.g. 1). Please note that doing this may cause other similar errors in the future.

  fsutil behavior set disable8dot3 1

• jumpy.log: located wherever debug.log is.


• jumpy.conf: located wherever PMS.conf is. The available settings are:

  # whether to activate bookmarks (true|false)
  bookmarks=true
  
  # whether to qualify the bookmark name (true|false)
  # e.g. 'Live :ESPN' instead of just 'Live'
  verbose_bookmarks=true
  
  # how often to refresh folder content in minutes
  # (-1=never|0=always|1=one minute)
  refresh=60
  
  # whether to check for updates (true|false)
  check_update=true
  
  # whether to copy log output to the console (true|false)
  debug=false
  
  # whether to act as a url resolver (true|false)
  url_resolver=true
  

• PMS.conf: If you need to override the locations where jumpy looks for Kodi set:

  # kodi/xbmc user folder
  xbmc.home.path = c:\\path\\to\\my\\XBMC
  # kodi/xbmc program folder
  xbmc.main.path = c:\\path\\to\\program\\Kodi
  

  You can set paths where external binaries needed by your scripts can be found, separating them with ';' in Windows or ':' in linux/mac:

  bin.path = c:\somewhere\bin;c:\somewhere else
  

  You can also specify your preferred text editor for opening files from the gui:

  text.editor = c:\\path\\to\\my\\textEditor
  

  See also Resolver and Interpreters for more PMS.conf settings.

• Press pause to stop panning and read, press again to continue.
• Pressing back takes you to the top of the page (on my Sony Bluray anyway, your renderer may behave differently).

data = name, url, [style, thumb]

• name is the item's label (or unix-style path).
• url is the address of the web page.
• style is an optional field to control presentation and playback using this syntax:
  format:delay_seconds:buffer_mb+pan:rdb_style:rdb_size:rdb_margin
  where
  • format is the only required part and is either:
    • webpage which is the default. Here pan can be
      • rtl for right to left panning.
      • graphics which maximizes the vertical overlap and is better suited to viewing images as opposed to reading text.
      • or both, e.g. webpage+rtl:graphics.
    • readability (or rdb) which uses the arc90labs readability script to clean up web pages into stripped-down article-like versions for easy reading.
      • rdb_style is either newspaper (default), novel, ebook, terminal, apertura, or athelas.
      • rdb_size (font) is either x-small, small, medium (default), large, or x-large.
      • rdb_margin is either x-narrow, narrow, medium (default), wide, or x-wide.
      see jumpy/webreader/readability.css (and edit it too if you like).
  • delay_seconds:buffer_mb are playback settings.
• thumb is an image file or a pre-defined icon.

• Kodi: two new addons are auto-installed:
  • script.module.jumpy (Programs>jumpy)
  • repository.jumpy.addons (System>Add-ons>Get Add-ons>jumpy repo)
  Restart Kodi and you should see a brief update notice for the 'jumpy' addon, which just means that urlresolver and youtube are being added if not already present. You can then uninstall the new jumpy addons if you like.


• youtube-dl: There's no general reason to change anything in Linux/OS-X, but If you're on Windows and have the Channels Plugin (which already resolves using youtube-dl in Windows) you may want to disable it in the jumpy config gui.

• Install from zip in Kodi: script.module.urlresolver
• Download youtube-dl's latest Full source tarball, untar and point to its youtube_dl subfolder in UMS.conf:

  youtube-dl.lib.path = c:\\path\\to\\youtube-dl\\youtube_dl
  

• If this browser is on the same device as PMS/UMS, go to 127.0.0.1:8989.


• If this browser is on a different device, type IP_ADDRESS:8989 in the address bar, where IP_ADDRESS is the LAN IP of the device running PMS/UMS (for example 192.168.1.3:8989).

• Press 'earmark' on any web page with media content (you should then see an 'Earmarked' notice).


• Look inside its earmark folder on the xmb to see any discovered items, at
  • /Jumpy/Earmarks (default)
  • or wherever else you specify by setting 'earmarks=/some/where' in PMS.conf

• This feature works to the extent that content is plainly evident and/or recognized by the available resolvers.


• For https pages be aware that some recent browsers (e.g. firefox 23+) will block mixed content, which means that the earmark button can't connect to its http server. In this case (e.g. youtube) the workaround is to go to the http version of the page if one exists and retry.

• Discovered devices (in various A/V combinations) are listed inside the Devices folder in the xmb root.


• Windows:
  • Directshow devices are supported, VFW is not.
  • For screencasting install any/all of these directshow filters:
    • x86 edition of UScreenCapture from Unreal Media.
    • screen-capture-recorder.
    • virtual-audio-capture-grabber.


• Linux: Only screencasting is implemented and X11 display screens are automatically detected assuming your ffmpeg has been compiled with x11grab enabled (which is not true for the linux ffmpeg binaries shipped with UMS).


• OS-X: Sorry, no device capture support in ffmpeg.


• There's a transcoding delay of 10 seconds or more, so this isn't really practical for real-time uses such as interacting with your desktop. See here for some more hands-on user notes.
