## rclone serve dlna
|
|
|
|
Serve remote:path over DLNA
|
|
|
|
### Synopsis
|
|
|
|
rclone serve dlna is a DLNA media server for media stored in a rclone remote. Many
|
|
devices, such as the Xbox and PlayStation, can automatically discover this server in the LAN
|
|
and play audio/video from it. VLC is also supported. Service discovery uses UDP multicast
|
|
packets (SSDP) and will thus only work on LANs.
|
|
|
|
Rclone will list all files present in the remote, without filtering based on media formats or
|
|
file extensions. Additionally, there is no media transcoding support. This means that some
|
|
players might show files that they are not able to play back correctly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Server options
|
|
|
|
Use --addr to specify which IP address and port the server should
|
|
listen on, eg --addr 1.2.3.4:8000 or --addr :8080 to listen to all
|
|
IPs.
|
|
|
|
Use --name to choose the friendly server name, which is by
|
|
default "rclone (hostname)".
|
|
|
|
Use --log-trace in conjunction with -vv to enable additional debug
|
|
logging of all UPNP traffic.
|
|
|
|
### Directory Cache
|
|
|
|
Using the `--dir-cache-time` flag, you can set how long a
|
|
directory should be considered up to date and not refreshed from the
|
|
backend. Changes made locally in the mount may appear immediately or
|
|
invalidate the cache. However, changes done on the remote will only
|
|
be picked up once the cache expires if the backend configured does not
|
|
support polling for changes. If the backend supports polling, changes
|
|
will be picked up on within the polling interval.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can send a `SIGHUP` signal to rclone for
|
|
it to flush all directory caches, regardless of how old they are.
|
|
Assuming only one rclone instance is running, you can reset the cache
|
|
like this:
|
|
|
|
kill -SIGHUP $(pidof rclone)
|
|
|
|
If you configure rclone with a [remote control](/rc) then you can use
|
|
rclone rc to flush the whole directory cache:
|
|
|
|
rclone rc vfs/forget
|
|
|
|
Or individual files or directories:
|
|
|
|
rclone rc vfs/forget file=path/to/file dir=path/to/dir
|
|
|
|
### File Buffering
|
|
|
|
The `--buffer-size` flag determines the amount of memory,
|
|
that will be used to buffer data in advance.
|
|
|
|
Each open file descriptor will try to keep the specified amount of
|
|
data in memory at all times. The buffered data is bound to one file
|
|
descriptor and won't be shared between multiple open file descriptors
|
|
of the same file.
|
|
|
|
This flag is a upper limit for the used memory per file descriptor.
|
|
The buffer will only use memory for data that is downloaded but not
|
|
not yet read. If the buffer is empty, only a small amount of memory
|
|
will be used.
|
|
The maximum memory used by rclone for buffering can be up to
|
|
`--buffer-size * open files`.
|
|
|
|
### File Caching
|
|
|
|
These flags control the VFS file caching options. The VFS layer is
|
|
used by rclone mount to make a cloud storage system work more like a
|
|
normal file system.
|
|
|
|
You'll need to enable VFS caching if you want, for example, to read
|
|
and write simultaneously to a file. See below for more details.
|
|
|
|
Note that the VFS cache works in addition to the cache backend and you
|
|
may find that you need one or the other or both.
|
|
|
|
--cache-dir string Directory rclone will use for caching.
|
|
--vfs-cache-max-age duration Max age of objects in the cache. (default 1h0m0s)
|
|
--vfs-cache-mode string Cache mode off|minimal|writes|full (default "off")
|
|
--vfs-cache-poll-interval duration Interval to poll the cache for stale objects. (default 1m0s)
|
|
--vfs-cache-max-size int Max total size of objects in the cache. (default off)
|
|
|
|
If run with `-vv` rclone will print the location of the file cache. The
|
|
files are stored in the user cache file area which is OS dependent but
|
|
can be controlled with `--cache-dir` or setting the appropriate
|
|
environment variable.
|
|
|
|
The cache has 4 different modes selected by `--vfs-cache-mode`.
|
|
The higher the cache mode the more compatible rclone becomes at the
|
|
cost of using disk space.
|
|
|
|
Note that files are written back to the remote only when they are
|
|
closed so if rclone is quit or dies with open files then these won't
|
|
get written back to the remote. However they will still be in the on
|
|
disk cache.
|
|
|
|
If using --vfs-cache-max-size note that the cache may exceed this size
|
|
for two reasons. Firstly because it is only checked every
|
|
--vfs-cache-poll-interval. Secondly because open files cannot be
|
|
evicted from the cache.
|
|
|
|
#### --vfs-cache-mode off
|
|
|
|
In this mode the cache will read directly from the remote and write
|
|
directly to the remote without caching anything on disk.
|
|
|
|
This will mean some operations are not possible
|
|
|
|
* Files can't be opened for both read AND write
|
|
* Files opened for write can't be seeked
|
|
* Existing files opened for write must have O_TRUNC set
|
|
* Files open for read with O_TRUNC will be opened write only
|
|
* Files open for write only will behave as if O_TRUNC was supplied
|
|
* Open modes O_APPEND, O_TRUNC are ignored
|
|
* If an upload fails it can't be retried
|
|
|
|
#### --vfs-cache-mode minimal
|
|
|
|
This is very similar to "off" except that files opened for read AND
|
|
write will be buffered to disks. This means that files opened for
|
|
write will be a lot more compatible, but uses the minimal disk space.
|
|
|
|
These operations are not possible
|
|
|
|
* Files opened for write only can't be seeked
|
|
* Existing files opened for write must have O_TRUNC set
|
|
* Files opened for write only will ignore O_APPEND, O_TRUNC
|
|
* If an upload fails it can't be retried
|
|
|
|
#### --vfs-cache-mode writes
|
|
|
|
In this mode files opened for read only are still read directly from
|
|
the remote, write only and read/write files are buffered to disk
|
|
first.
|
|
|
|
This mode should support all normal file system operations.
|
|
|
|
If an upload fails it will be retried up to --low-level-retries times.
|
|
|
|
#### --vfs-cache-mode full
|
|
|
|
In this mode all reads and writes are buffered to and from disk. When
|
|
a file is opened for read it will be downloaded in its entirety first.
|
|
|
|
This may be appropriate for your needs, or you may prefer to look at
|
|
the cache backend which does a much more sophisticated job of caching,
|
|
including caching directory hierarchies and chunks of files.
|
|
|
|
In this mode, unlike the others, when a file is written to the disk,
|
|
it will be kept on the disk after it is written to the remote. It
|
|
will be purged on a schedule according to `--vfs-cache-max-age`.
|
|
|
|
This mode should support all normal file system operations.
|
|
|
|
If an upload or download fails it will be retried up to
|
|
--low-level-retries times.
|
|
|
|
### Case Sensitivity
|
|
|
|
Linux file systems are case-sensitive: two files can differ only
|
|
by case, and the exact case must be used when opening a file.
|
|
|
|
Windows is not like most other operating systems supported by rclone.
|
|
File systems in modern Windows are case-insensitive but case-preserving:
|
|
although existing files can be opened using any case, the exact case used
|
|
to create the file is preserved and available for programs to query.
|
|
It is not allowed for two files in the same directory to differ only by case.
|
|
|
|
Usually file systems on MacOS are case-insensitive. It is possible to make MacOS
|
|
file systems case-sensitive but that is not the default
|
|
|
|
The "--vfs-case-insensitive" mount flag controls how rclone handles these
|
|
two cases. If its value is "false", rclone passes file names to the mounted
|
|
file system as is. If the flag is "true" (or appears without a value on
|
|
command line), rclone may perform a "fixup" as explained below.
|
|
|
|
The user may specify a file name to open/delete/rename/etc with a case
|
|
different than what is stored on mounted file system. If an argument refers
|
|
to an existing file with exactly the same name, then the case of the existing
|
|
file on the disk will be used. However, if a file name with exactly the same
|
|
name is not found but a name differing only by case exists, rclone will
|
|
transparently fixup the name. This fixup happens only when an existing file
|
|
is requested. Case sensitivity of file names created anew by rclone is
|
|
controlled by an underlying mounted file system.
|
|
|
|
Note that case sensitivity of the operating system running rclone (the target)
|
|
may differ from case sensitivity of a file system mounted by rclone (the source).
|
|
The flag controls whether "fixup" is performed to satisfy the target.
|
|
|
|
If the flag is not provided on command line, then its default value depends
|
|
on the operating system where rclone runs: "true" on Windows and MacOS, "false"
|
|
otherwise. If the flag is provided without a value, then it is "true".
