Had some problems getting Swedish radio P1 to stream properly (it's in WMA format), worked after installing AlienBBC plugin, mplayer and lame, and specifying mms://wm-live.sr.se/sr-p1-high as the URL. Not sure what did it. Also added the following lines to /etc/squeezeboxserver/convert.conf:
wma wav * *Also downloaded Squeezeslave (from http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/softsqueeze/squeezeslave/squeezeslave-0.9/squeezeslave-0.9-65-lnx26-alsa-display-i686.tar.gz?use_mirror=sunet). This is a command line software emulation of a Slim Devices music player. I intend to use it to play music in my living room, and control it from the web interface.
[mplayer] -really-quiet -vc null -vo null -cache 64 -af volume=0,resample=44100:0:1,channels=2 -ao pcm:nowaveheader:file=/dev/fd/4 $FILE$ 4>&1 1>/dev/null
wma mp3 * *
[mplayer] -really-quiet -vc null -vo null -cache 64 -af volume=0,resample=44100:0:1,channels=2 -ao pcm:nowaveheader:file=/dev/fd/4 $FILE$ 4>&1 1>/dev/null | [lame] --silent -q $QUALITY$ $RESAMPLE$ -v $BITRATE$ - -
Did:
sudo cp squeezeslave /usr/local/binCreated a startup script by modifying the one for mydns.
Installed it with:
update-rc.d squeezeslave defaultsAlso made symbolic links from /media/music to my music library.
