Yeah the installation help on mediatomb.cc was getting me nowhere, so I just decided to cut my losses and start from square one. Although I did use the built-in ffmpeg version and just transcode to Mpeg-1.

There are two things I came across that you may want to add. 1. The installation of mediainfo in order for the scripts on the mediatomb.cc site to work 2. The native version of FFMPEG on Deb 5 didn't support the mpegts codec an is generally lame compared to the versions found on debian-multimedia.org This was super helpful thanks!

If you really want to get into hacking together wireless drivers, I suggest you spend the time yourself. That said, I will be glad to give you some general pointers. I decided I'd keep this public in case other people have similar issues. Edit: Fixed the broken ACX project link thanks to Talbert.
