I can confirm that squeezeplay works perfectly when pulsaudio is disabled. (for which I simply did an apt-get remove pulseaudio) ABBA is now playing happily. (no discussions on my taste please. Its simply the first artist under A:-) Question now is how to fix the pulseaudio interworking. On my squeezeslave problems, I see random behaviour. My sound device should be sharable, its a plughw device. But sometimes it is not listed, sometimes it is. Sometimes when I start squeezeplay first, mythtv refuses to produce sound, but when I start mythtv first, squeezeplay is working fine. I have to play a bit more with it to make sense of it all.

A Media Access Control address (MAC address) is a unique identifier assigned to network interfaces for communications on the physical network segment. (Wikipedia) The network interfaces of the hardware players have a preset mac address, I believe Logitech uses this range: 00:04:20:xx:xx:xx, you can look yours up on the server under the information screen. So if you run multiple instances of squeezeslave with the default mac address (00:00:00:00:00:01), the server has no way of keeping them apart. The server keeps the per-player settings stored according to mac-address. Thanks for the quick reply lauret, Sorry my question wasn't well worded.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Linux alternative to SqueezePlay?
OK. I'm trying to compile and install squeezeplay from the tarball in the nightly builds section http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.7. I'm no expert so I may be missing something but when I unpacked the tarball I was expecting to find a configure script to run to create a makefile to compile with. No such files exist. The unpacked tarball seems to have created the binaries directly, I get clive@Sony-Vaio ~/Packages/squeezeplay $ ls bin include lib man share squeezeplay-7.7.1-9557.tgz The bin folder already has the files to run squeezeplay, the same as when I installed it through software manager. Running these doesn't work though. Have I missed something out or is the tarball in this instance pre-complied?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Linux alternative to SqueezePlay?
According to this: http://birdslikewires.co.uk/articles/compiling-squeezeplay Ubuntu 9.10 is the last version to compile Squeezeplay. I tried setting 9.10 up in a VM, but it is obsolete so many neccesary packages are not available anymore. Then I tried to setup a 8.04 LTS, but I can't seem to compile a recent ALSA on it (to use USB Audio Class 2.0) because of the old kernel... Of course, it would be best if we get Squeezeplay to compile on a recent distro! -- lauret lauret's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17632 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91834 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

That functionality alone makes it a highly desireable piece of soiftware in my house :-) As far as getting it working goes.. I tried getting the windows version running in wine but failed miserably. I've never used wine before, so am no expert, but it all seemed to install corectly but Inoithing happens when I try to run Squeezeplay (absolutely nothing). I tried de-installing squuezeplay and wine with the idea of trying again but don't seem to be able to deinstall it. I may resort to re installing Mint from scratch.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Linux alternative to SqueezePlay?
Well, I discovered that trying to resize the window of Squeezeplay refreshes the display. So resizing after every step you do, you can get quite far into the setup menu, I tried some things, other theme, etc. but to no avail.
