| Hosted By: | Bruno Parisi & Bianca Gibson |
| Workshop Topic | Amahi home media server & Python and the GUI |
Bianca went over the tips and tricks of setting up Python GTK applications. Below is her well documented code for a sudoku game.
Bruno described the best parts of Amahi. Mainly what distro to setup Amahi on;
| Fedora 13 | Everything worked and was free |
| *Fedora 14 | Paid services came in but free plugins still worked |
| Fedora 15 | Support for this version was skipped |
| Fedora 16 | Most free plugins didn't work any more and it's harder to get working |
* = Best choice
It should work on Ubuntu/Debian systems as well.
It's best for inhouse media streaming to TV's and PS3's. There is no transcoding with in this program you have to use a 3rd party plugin for that.
