I would dearly love to have the ability to stream audio direct from my
Ipad to squeezebox (I have three duets and a classic). I am particularly
interested in being able to stream the audio from Google Play from the
Ipad - I think I am right in thinking that once the Ipad sees an airplay
compatible receiver on the network, you can route the output from any
app to that. Please tell me if that is wrong! 

I am running LMS 7.8 on a QNAP TS-869L, and am very unfamiliar with
Linux. Would it be possible for someone to write a step by step on how
to install this plug-in which could be followed even by utter Linux
noobs like me?

As it stands, my attempt to follow what I have read here has been foiled
at the first hurdle. When I try and add the repo linked to by StuartUSA
in post 17 of this thread to LMS, I get the following error message:

"Bad repository
http://raw2.github.com/StuartUSA/shairport_plugin/master/public.xml -
Redirection limit exceeded" - can anyone help me with that?

If I can get to the point where the plug-in is installed, I understand
that I then need to "compile the helper app, on Linux". To do that, I
need to SSH into the Qnap box linux inetrface and then simply type the
commands as shown at the bottom of
https://github.com/StuartUSA/shairport_plugin. Please tell me if this is
wrong.

Apologies for the very basic questions, and thanks to all who have put
work in to developing this plug in so far.
