I have a Debian box running slimserver with AlienBBC installed very successfully (mostly!). The server runs headless, but with speakers attached.
I can access and play my CD collection and BBC radio stations (live and recorded) using remote streaming (softsqueeze or real player, XP or Vista, local network or over the internet). To play music on the server, I have a script running mplayer on the server, listening to stream.mp3, then I just go to the slimserver webpage on my laptop and select the music I want to play - couple of seconds for the buffering and that works great! Problem is - my server will ONLY play CDs. Running mplayer through a terminal window, the output looks the same for CDs or for a BBC stream - no errors showing, but slimserver shows the player as "stopped" and no music sounds for BBC radio. Everything is the latest version (as through aptitude update) - I'd appreciate any pointers - let me know if there's more information needed to comment! Thanks! -- julescurt ------------------------------------------------------------------------ julescurt's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=342 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43849 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
