Homestream

laurencerussell — Mon, 17 Feb 2014 19:21:59 GMT

Hi,

I've downloaded and tried to run Homestream so I can stream from my Mac to my Sony Bravia TV. When I unzip the file and try to run the download it tells me that it is damaged and so will not run.

Is anybody else having this problem?

Hi there

Can you try re-downloading the Homestream file again?

Cheers

Hi,

Cheers for the quick response.

Yeah I've tried deleting the previous file and downloading it again a couple of times and this hasn't solved the problem.

Hi,

Cheers for the link.

I've given it a go and I get the same response. It downloads fine, unzips automatically but then when I try to open the file it says that 'the file is damaged. You should move it to the trash'

Hi there

I do not know why you are having problems with installing Homestream. Considering that Homestream was built on the Serviio platform - Can you try installing Serviio instead?

Download Page:

http://serviio.org/download

Direct Link for Mac

http://download.serviio.org/releases/serviio-1.4-osx.tar.gz

Some installation instructions:

My fingers are crossed.

Cheers

Hi,

Thanks for your responses. I've downloaded directly from Serviio and it has worked perfectly.

Cheers for your help, I can have a play around with the software now.

Thanks for updating the thread with your Mac OS version, I'll see if I can get someone to check out to see if we can identify if there is a problem with the homestream mac file..

Hi laurencerussell,

Hi,

Thanks for the update.

I've tried downloading from that link and I get another error message. I've attached a link below.

I've also tried to download from the Homesteam website - http://www.sony.co.uk/hub/1237485339460 and the link still doesn't work as before.

I'm thinking maybe its some error my end rather than the links!

Since Homestream is a Sony adaption to serviio, you may try to download directly from the source application at http://www.serviio.org

HI laurencerussell, my mistake with the link have corrected it now..:smileyexclaim:

Unfortunately as I don't own a MAC I can't check myself if Homestream v2.0 installs correctly but my contact assures me that it does..

However if Serviio is working then maybe worth sticking with what you have..:smileywink:

Re: Homestream

laurencerussell — Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:30:59 GMT

Hi,

Serviio works with no problem so I'll stick with that.

Thanks for your help

You're welcome, sorry we couldn't resolve the Homestream installation issue but at least the suggestion of Serviio gave you a working solution..

Homestream 1.1 for Mac says it's corrupted and won't unzip.

Servillo 1.4 bounces the dock icon for a while and nothing happens

Servillo 2 gives a 404 Forbidden error.

I'm on OSX Mavericks

Thank you.
