You're using Ampache to browse and playback audio locally via the USB audio device. I thought you were successfully streaming audio using Ampache to an HTTP client. That's the part that's tricky with the Slug (you need to figure out how to either avoid transcoding, or transcode using integer math exclusively - floating point processing will bring the meager Slug to a crawl). I'm more than happy with MPD and native clients (I use MPoD and MPaD for iOS) to manage playback, though I do have a web front-end running as well (the delightfully usable and lightweight RelaXX - the AJAX implementation is quite adequate).

I'm surprised with your trouble about the transcoding thing. I got Ampache up and running on my slug almost 'out of the box', i.e., the only thing I had to manually insert at the the ampache's config file (ampache.conf.php) was the newly created database password (see below); the transcoding section was left untouched with it's default values... I'm sure any more experienced user than me (I have a scarce, just very basic knowledge of linux) will get at least the same or even better results. So, if you're interested in running ampache on your slug, I think you should give it another try: 1) Just pick and install from ampache's project download page the older, 3.5.4, version (https://github.com/ampache/ampache/tree/3.5.4) and not the newest one; I use lighttpd as the webserver and I installed ampache files under lighttpd folder; ampache reacts reasonably fast in both cases -- when you try to access it from a local address and from the wan side as well (provided you get some sort of a working dns service. 2) Make sure you have on your unslung slug a working version of MPD and all related software (most of them installed at the same time); and also: mysql, php (plus some php modules indicated at ampache's install page) and maybe phpmyadmin as well -- you might need it! At least, in my case, the only way it worked for me in order to finish the instalation process (web based) and get a working config file was to edit the new user database (created on 1th stage during install) using phpmyadmin; that allowed me to assign it a password and finally get a successfull login at ampache's login webpage. No need to edit ampache.conf.php file after that (at least for the basic features to work). 3) finally, be patient with the beast (ampache) and the slug: after clicking one of those green buttons at ampache web interface in order to send an item (or an entire album) to the playlist (in 'local play mode' and through a wireless connection) I usually have to wait 10-15 secs before the poor slug starts to output the music to the hi-fi system... but then it works just fine, no gaps, including the album art and the other randomization features! Finally, concerning Amarok, I guess I'd better drop that idea -- I cannot figure a way to install it on unslung... Maybe you could suggest something? Once again, thanks for the feedback and for the links! Salut! Joao --- In nslu2-linux-hHKSG33TihhbjbujkaE4pw&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org, "M.J.

So i sat down and developed a little tool in c++ that scans a directory for mp3 and flac (other formats could easily be added) using taglib and libmagick and stores the information in a sqlite database. After the scanning i implemented a little webserver (using mongoose) through which access is possible (getAlbums, getAlbum with json and obviously streamTrack). Till now i only worked one night at it, but its more than enough for me (i developed a little android frontend, too), as i only use it to stream a whole album to my tablet when i go to bed. Maybe you wanna join development? In my imagination its quite a nice project (i did it to refresh my c++ skills) greets Am 17.04.2013 16:39, schrieb M.J.

I wasn't able to get a good streaming solution running on the Slug, due to the lack of a FPU (most transcoding solutions require it). I tried using MPD's built-in streaming capability, but again, the transcoding requirements were a deal breaker. As a result, I cobbled together a Perl-based solution that allows me to take playlists created in MPD and use them to feed MP3s to an Icecast server for streaming mp3s over HTTP. The Perl scripts have allowed me to cobble a solution together using ices as the glue between MPD and Icecast. This solution basically just dumps the MP3 to Icecast without any transcoding. These links describe the solution in adequate detail: http://wiki.yobi.be/wiki/Webradio http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Hack:ices-client http://www.757.org/~joat/wiki/index.php?n=Main.IcecastOnTheNSLU2 Very curious to hear about your experiences with Ampache and Amarok.

I got Ampache v.3.5.4 (a «rich», i.e., *heavy* MPD web client) running on my unslung 6.10 slug and connected to a pair of Hi-Fi speakers through a cheap Media-C usb soundcard (kinda slow but it works!). I wonder if it's possible to install on top of it the media player Amarok? The newest 2.7 release uses mysql5 (not included yet on ipkg's repo), but maybe and older version (just like Ampache) that uses mysql will do the job? Any hint or feedback about similar successful (or unsuccessful) attempts would be very much appreciated... Salut! J.

I have installed and configured nginx, php, php-fcgi and spawn-fcgi on an unslung slug. Initially I configured /opt/etc/nginx/nginx.conf as I show below to be able to use nginx and php-fcgi to display php files: ================================ server { listen 80; server_name localhost; root /home/httpd/mrtg; location / { index index.html index.htm; } #Pass all .php files onto a php-fpm/php-fcgi server. location ~ \.php$ { try_files $uri $uri/ =404; fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; #fastcgi_intercept_errors on; fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string; fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method; fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type; fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length; #fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:1026; fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/php-fcgi.sock; } ================================ To spawn fastcgi I have a script under /opt/etc/init.d/ to start php-fcgi and bind it to a unix socket: FCGISOCKET="/tmp/php-fcgi.sock" This has worked fine, but now I want to also be able to process cgi-bin/routers2.cgi for graphing some mrtg data and I am not sure if I need to install anything else and/or how to configure nginx. This is what I have tried adding to nginx.conf, after some google searching and head scratching: ================================ location ~ ^/cgi-bin/.*\.cgi$ { gzip off; fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/php-fcgi.sock; #fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/nginx/cgiwrap-dispatch.sock; fastcgi_index index.cgi; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string; fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method; fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type; fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length; #fastcgi_param GATEWAY_INTERFACE CGI/1.1; #fastcgi_param SERVER_SOFTWARE nginx; #fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name; #fastcgi_param REQUEST_URI $request_uri; #fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_URI $document_uri; #fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $document_root; #fastcgi_param SERVER_PROTOCOL $server_protocol; #fastcgi_param REMOTE_ADDR $remote_addr; #fastcgi_param REMOTE_PORT $remote_port; #fastcgi_param SERVER_ADDR $server_addr; #fastcgi_param SERVER_PORT $server_port; #fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $server_name; } ================================ However, instead of the browser showing the result of the *.cgi script, it just loads up the content of the file. Any idea what I need to do to enable nginx to process cgi files - *without* adding a separate web server to do this, but using some fastcgi method instead? </pre> mick_nslu2 2013-03-23T21:40:21 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.nslu2.linux/25273 <pre>Hi All, Could some kind soul, who has a dev environment handy, update the openssl binary?

I moved to Debian using this guide http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/unpack.html It was pretty simple to install even with the installer not working. I am not a expert on the difference between slug and Debian and may have been have doing something wrong in slugOS myself.
