Re: [slim] OSX desktop audio to Slimserver

2007-04-06 Thread mmg_fan

hmm,
thanks, I added one additional step, 

I created a new streaming playlist in itunes.
In itunes:ADvanced/Open Stream..paste the url

Refreshed the playlists in Slimserver and voila!

I guess this should work with roku and other music servers as well

Re: [slim] OSX desktop audio to Slimserver

2007-04-06 Thread peterw

The basic idea for MacOS is to use SoundFlower to make your normal Mac
output available as a source for Nicecast/Icecast, and tell your
Squeezebox to tune in the Nicecast/Icecast URL.

The forums should give you more suggestions.

I've got a Mac, but it sees little use & I haven't tried setting this
up on it. Closest I've come is configuring DarkIce and Icecast on Linux
to make my stereo's Line Out available as an MP3 stream in my house by
patching it to the computer's Line In jack.

I don't know what software you'd use on Windows to do something like
SoundFlower, but it should be the same idea -- install a streaming
server like Icecast/Shoutcast, and install some software like
SoundFlower to feed Icecast/Shoutcast.

Thanks 
Have you used Nicecast?
Do I need to copy the Nicecast stream url to an itunes playlist
first...or can I configure SS to play this stream directly?

There's apparently something called Nicecast for OSX, as opposed to
icecast for Windows.

[slim] OSX desktop audio to Slimserver

2007-04-06 Thread mmg_fan

I'm sure I'm not the only one who is frustrated by the inability to
channel audio from other desktop apps (windows, media player, itunes,
quicktime player etc) to Slimserver.

Has anyone tried audio hijack pro with slimserver as a possible
solution?

I'v also read about something called soundflower...

Please, any suggestions welcome!
