Forked-daapd for Airport express / iOS -owners :)
Forked-daapd for Airport express / iOS -owners :)
I am very happy with my little B3 and really impressed of it as a server / itunes library server etc but i would be even more happy if i could use my iPhone / iPad and the Apple remote app to pair with the itunes-library on the B3 and therefore be able to turn of my computers when i wanted to listen to my music.
I saw that it was possible to use forked-daapd to do that and it would be supernice to be able to use that, both for the coolness and my eternal happyness

Re: Forked-daapd for Airport express / iOS -owners :)
Yes, we have looked on it. It's on the list, we'll add it when we can.
(Note however that you can install it yourself quite easilly, we haven't tested yet but it should work:
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/forked-daapd)

Re: Forked-daapd for Airport express / iOS -owners :)
I was looking for a firefly replacement and stumbled in forked-daap
On B3 it should be available once adding debian repository to your sorces.list file.
I don't remember where, but I'm pretty sure I read that it doesn't have the web interface, so you must use a client to connect to it. Just in case...
Cheers

Re: Forked-daapd for Airport express / iOS -owners :)
no time for a full tutorial, here you have some instructions, take them as general reference
just the first two chapters are useful in your case
http://linuxappfinder.com/addrepo
once added stable repos, proceed with apt-get update
and then apt-get install forked-daapd
now dependencies should be solved.
No problem should come, but beware that you are adding a repo not provided by the excito team, I don't know to which term it is supported, btw it's debian stable as b3 sw, it should be error-free.
I don't know if you have to configure the db then, I know nothing about these music servers

Re: Forked-daapd for Airport express / iOS -owners :)
Perhaps a dumb question (I am a hardware guy at Excito so please dont put me down for this, but I want to learn), but is this about adding official debian repos to our sources?
You can use the nifty tool pre-installed in B3: change_distribution elvin -u (-u for upstream). THen apt-get update and then apt-get install ...

Re: Forked-daapd for Airport express / iOS -owners :)
johannes' way is better, I didn't know this feature.
Is this working also on bubba2?
to johannes:Is there some manual on similar features? Is there some explanation of the different distributions for B3 and bubba2?

Re: Forked-daapd for Airport express / iOS -owners :)
gatto - yes, it's on B2 as well. You have to be root though. And you have a point, no documentation of this, so I added:
http://wiki.excito.org/wiki/index.php/C ... ces_easier.
There is one mor tool/trick I can think of that isn't documented, it's how to install debian packages using the web interface. I'll make sure to add a howto for this as well (I just have to figure out how it works first).

Re: Forked-daapd for Airport express / iOS -owners :)
Yes, we'll have to ask some apt-wizard for help here, I'm also puzzled.

Re: Forked-daapd for Airport express / iOS -owners :)
maybe this sounds stupid, but did you run
before installing the package?
it can also be an issue of forked-daapd now seen as broken, you can also try
to solve it
let me know
Code: Select all
apt-get update
