Linux users may be interested in a small headless client I've been working on called Squeezelite. It's scope is constrained to offering a headless (Squeezeslave like) player which runs on linux desktops and potentially small linux devices using alsa for audio output.
It should support the following: - headless playback - gapless (not mp3), high res support, direct streaming support (works with my Spotify plugin) - flac, mp3 and pcm (wav/aiff) playback; flac/mp3 require libFLAC and libmad to be separately installed - usb dacs with support for direct playback to the hardware device (supports S24_3LE output format) - sync (not proven at present) - tunable buffer sizes - ability to disable codecs (if you like to only use wav, then only enable pcm and libFLAC, libmad will not be loaded) The code is opensource (GPLv3) and available here: http://code.google.com/p/squeezelite/ At present this is only really a test version, but I've put a 32 bit binary on the download page which people may like to try. To run: Code: -------------------- ./squeezelite -? - lists options ./squeezelite -o hw:CARD=MDAC - starts with alsa device: hw:CARD=MDAC used as the output (this is an example usb audio dac) -------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Triode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
