Enable SSH
Access via SSH and login as the admin user with whatever that password is
/etc/init.d/StartMediaService.sh stop
And then disable the services by editing that file:
vim /etc/init.d/StartMediaService.sh
modify the line starting with MULTIMEDIA_PATH and set it to = (nothing)
MULTIMEDIA_PATH=
By setting it to blank, you prevent the service from restarting… which you can now see by trying to start them:
/etc/init.d/StartMediaService.sh start
That should come back immediately with:
“I cannot find multimedia folder”
if you are using your QNAP mainly to store data you might consider disabling all those “media” services… (no use to run a itunes server if you are having no IPod / IPhone)
which will save you a lot of CPU usage…
