    Hi All!

    I am using mt-daapd on my unslung NSLU2. When I play music from iTunes everything is working fine – it is playing away 🙂 However – when I use Front Row it plays for a while (3 to 10 minutes) and then suddently stops? Front Row simply returns to the menu. Does anyone have an idea why?

    Regards,
    Jacob

    I installed it a couple of weeks ago using ipkg – it must be version 0.2.4.

    That’s not completely surprising. As far as I know, only the nightly version advertise the bonjour stuff that frontrow wants.

    Try the nightlies on the left… those should work better, and there is a nslu2 package there, too. I’m guessing it will work better.

    Thanks a lot! I’ll try – but how do I install the latest nightly with ipkg? I guess I need to add a new source to a .conf-file? And what is the name of that conf-file?

    Actually, I don’t have it set up as a feed. You can just download it, move it to the slug and do “ipkg install /path/to/ipkg”.

    Another thing you can do is grab the package straight from the web, like:


    
root@slug:~# wget http://nightlies.mt-daapd.org/mt-daapd_svn-1005-1_armeb.ipk
    
root@slug:~# ipkg install ./mt-daapd_svn-1005-1_armeb.ipk

    Might be easiest to just let it install the new config file, as well — it’s got all the new options and whatnot in it.

    Sorry, but:

    # ipkg remove mt-daapd
    Removing package mt-daapd from root…
    # ipkg install mt-daapd_svn-1005-1_armeb.ipk
    Installing mt-daapd (svn-1005-1) to root…
    Nothing to be done

    you can download libao at the top of the nightlies page…

    Thanks again – it is playing away now with the nightley. Let’s see if it quits again.

    I’ll be back 🙂

    Still running! I think it is working. I am soooo happy!

    Thank you for your help AND for developing the software!
