Re: [RDD] Network clilent audio playback problem
Hi David You've to MySQL ok. That's good. Where is the audio files sitting that you are trying to play? If they are only on the server, you need to be able to connect to them. Usually nfs is a good way. Samba does sometimes work, but not recommended. The files have to be mounted so the client can play them.

[RDD] Network clilent audio playback problem
I've been following this thread online http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/pipermail/rivendell-dev/2016-July/024729.html but I'm having trouble getting the client machine to actually play any audio. Everything else works fine, it can access the mysql server and can get into rdadmin but no audio plays. Neither does the level meter move. If I try to play an item in rdairplay it just disappears when the start button is pushed. In rdlibrary the play button illuminates in the audio editor and I can see all the cue points etc but that's as far as it goes. The server plays audio no problem Anyone got any ideas? ___ Rivendell-dev mailing list Rivendell-dev@lists.rivendellaudio.org http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
