Firmwares 2657 / 3718.510

The new firmwares for N2R1 (2657 1.0.0t) and N1T1 (3718.510.t0) have been released to prevent downgrades. No cool new features this time.

N2R1 Firmware 2647 1.0.0t

  • Added MiniDLNA
  • Added USB2IP
  • Added delete buttons for all Twonky versions
  • CD-ROM and USB devices are now available in AjaXplorer → Services → Devices
  • Many small fixes
  • ServiceManager supports dynamic loading of services (PHP/XML), now
  • Fixed exponential growth of cronjobs, when UPnP port forwarding is enabled

If a firmware >= 2642 is installed, please disable UPnP port forwarding before upgrading. (if you encounter the issue that the NAS is no longer available >= 1h runtime)

Note: Mediaflu replaced the old DLNA (LG) media server. Due to this 'issue', the old Twonky 4 configuration page is no longer available. To access the Twonky 4 configuration page, type the direct URL into your address bar (e.g. http://lg-nas:8000/en/service/dlna.php) or deactivate Mediaflu (requires ExpertConfiguration-Package).

Development Snapshots

It's been a long time, since the last stable firmware has been released. The reason is, that all firmwares are currently under test. This was necessary, because there were a few big bugs.

If you need a new firmware (e.g. because you have to reset your NAS anyway), you can test the latest development snapshots for yourself. The snapshots are always available on NAS-Portal.org (German/English Community Board).

There are currently two versions under test:

I hope that these firmwares are stable in one or two weeks. Feel free to test the firmwares for yourself and don't forget to post your comments.

Personnellement, j'ai un NAS N2B1 et suite à l'installation d'un logiciel le paquet libc6 génère une erreur avec busybox. Il y a une méthode pour contourner l'erreur mais il m'ai arriver de devoir formater complètement le serveur car le serveur ne démarrait plus. A quand une correction ? _

Personally, I have a NAS N2B1 and following the installation of a software package libc6 generates an error with busybox. There is a method to bypass the error but love me to have to get completely format the server because the server would not start. When will a correction?

EDIT : La dernière version (2647 1.0.0t) n'est pas flashage avec mon serveur N2B1. ___

EDIT : The last version (2647 1.0.0t) don't work with my N2B1 server.

Ok. I did the all thing and THANKS to Threnor, it worked fine !! :-D But, it's rather hard to get informations in English (or French) when you don't speak German. So, I still have a little question : “Selective mirror” fonction doesn't work. Is it normal ?

Thanks Al

Can anyone tell me whether custom firmware version 2647 (latest) provides the LG mobile app support that is provided in official firmware 2642. I want to use the myData application with my iPhone and dont want to upgrade from my current custom firmware unless I know this will work. Please let me know.

Hi, I am using firmware 2657 / 3718.510 on n2b1, I was listening to music in Windows Media Center on Windows 7 Pro and viewing media files on another computer also win7pro. they both locked up and had to reboot both computers and the nas. Now my “service” folder is no longer accesible. I used filezilla to view /mnt/disk/volume1 and found a file called “service” instead of a folder. I am somewhat a dummy when it comes to all this and was wondering if there is any way to change this back to a folder without losing all my files?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi everyone!! It's being used Firmwares 2657 at yesterday. It worked fine!! But I want to use SVN Server on My NAS. How can I use SVN Server or git?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi

This firmware is great, thanks for releasing it. I can finally stream to my phone and playstation through Twonky with out a PC being on. Could't work out how to use media tomb (noob). I will have to buy a licence for Twonky, which is fine, but how would I update to the newer Twonky releases?

Can anyone advise?

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for the firmware! Works great on my N1T1. I also would like to upgrade my version of Twonky. I have a Samsung C Series TV and am not able to stream mkv files with Twonky. I have been to other forums that suggest that Twonky version 6.0.28 and above have no problem streaming mkv files. The version on the NAS is 6.0.23. Am I able to independently upgrade Twonky on the NAS or does it require a new firmware update?

Thanks for you time and effort, Jeremy

Je remet un petit message car je n'ai pas eu de réponse à mes questions. Pour compléter ce que j'ai déjà dis, Twonky requiert mencoder/ffmpeg pour le transcodage. Leur installation est impossible ; Quant à leur compilation c'est pareil puisque le FAMEUX paquet libc6 plante totalement le serveur. je pense qu'optimiser le firmware pour que l'on puisse compiler nous-même les logiciels que l'on veut installer sur nos serveurs serait une bonne chose.

I put a little message as I did not get an answer to my questions. To complete what I say, Twonky requires mencoder / ffmpeg for transcoding. Their installation is impossible; As for their compilation is the same as the package libc6 FAMOUS plant completely server. I think as optimize the firmware so that we can compile our own software you want installed on our servers would be good.

I can't upgrade to the new 8421. Keep saying invalid firmware file. Any suggestion?

astir, 2011/11/10 16:34

Hi,

any change to get custom firmware for N2A2 (2 1TB disks, no DVD)

I would be very thankful!

Is there much differencies for e.g. N2R1 ?

thx -Astir

martin010, 2011/11/15 20:24

Hi there,

Still using your custom firmware on my N1T1 with much pleasure. Now I noticed that LG has released a new version with better Apple support.. can you tell me if you are planning a custom release based on this version?

Thanks!

asimuz, 2011/11/22 10:21

Hi,

I've used your firmware on my N1T1 for a while now and it works really great, thanks!

A friend of mine has updated his N1T1 to LGs new firmware 8421 and got much better functionality and stability.

Are you going to update your firmware release with 8421 soon?

thx - Asimuz

Seeing as how LG hasn't released a firmware for the N2R1 to deal with Apple's Timemachine incompatibility issues (except in Korea), any chance you could come up with something?

fantoom, 2011/12/19 20:36

mijn n2r1d is nu op firmware_2660 end wond go back !!!! wat is rong.

npn66nicke, 2012/01/08 03:13

Until Tantalus have developed 2660t my workaround, posted at http://forum.nas-portal.org/showthread.php?8873-Tantalus-Firmwares/page67, can be a temporary solution to meet the requirements: Mac OS X Lion Time Machine support and SSH-service.

Look for the reply from npn66nicke with the Makefile.

Is there a way to disable the logging? The system log and the samba log are showing dozens of events each minute. I am aware of the risks when turning this off.

Best regards, Will

Hi.

I just noticed that LG released a “2660” for N2R1 which is, at last, suposed to solve the connection problems whit OSX Lion on Mac.

I see you upgraded N1T1. I would be thankfull as soon as you can include LG's upgrades for N2R1, because for now, it is a bit of a pain having to use SFTP instead of simply the “Finder”.

Thanks in advance. Phiphi.
