Thanks everyone for your help and suggestions. Turns out I was missing a password. I will run with this for now and I'll see if I can get it to work with liquidsoap. I have another question now. I have about 80 gigs worth of music on an external drive that I want to load into rdlibrary, the files are labeled as wma and some as mp3 but when I try to import into rdlibrary I get a "transcoding error". Now if I first import to audacity and then export them as mp3 then import to rdlibrary they work fine. Any ideas on this? I'm running rivendell 2.5.0 on ubuntu 11.04.
