 Posted: Fri Sep 14, 2007 7:50 pm Post subject: mpd on a server without a sound card installed |
 |
|
Hi,
I want to run the Music Player Daemon (mpd) on my home server, where all the home directories are located. They are exported via nfs and samba, so that my linux box and my fathers windows box can access the music and the other data. Everything works fine so far, except that I really don't like the iTunes crap my father is using.
So I thought about installing mpd and running a client on every box to access the music files. The problem ist that the server is without a sound card installed.
I installed mpd with pulseaudio use flag and I can see my flac files in mpc on my client. Sadly the playback doesn't work.
Is there a possibility to manage all that without installing a sound card? Do I need alsa installed or is it possible to achieve playback with pulseaudio only? When starting pulseadio with the init-script I get errors in /var/log/messages. I compiled it with hal support but neither load-module module-hal-detect nor load-module module-detect works.
Thanks for your reply!
Joe

make sure hald is running. Or just build pulseaudio without hal support. Or just use icecast
