[SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: HydraPlayer plugin: a SliMP3 emulator written in perl
I've recently created a web page for the plugin I wrote called HydraPlayer. The site can be found here: http://www.noid.net/hydraplayer/hydraplayer.html Here's a brief description of what it does: HydraPlayer is a SliMP3 emulator written in perl. The emulator can function on its own (stand alone mode), but it's mostly useful when run as a plugin within the SlimServer. When running in plugin mode, it can spawn multiple emulator sessions, one per detected Squeezebox controller. The players are synchronized with the controllers such that the Squeezebox controller is used for media selection, volume control, etc. and the player sessions are used to actually drive the speakers. - Tor Perkins -- torp torp's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36068 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74375 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: HydraPlayer plugin: a SliMP3 emulator written in perl
When I first started the project, I looked at the source code for the slimp3slave player, and it looked pretty tiny and straight forward. At the time, SlimProtoLib was not ready yet, but I looked at the source and it seemed to be both larger and more complex. So I decided it would be easier for me to implement SliMP3 rather than SB2 in perl... As you noticed, with a tiny hack, the SlimServer will send FLAC to a SliMP3 player, and since I did not have any real SliMP3 hardware that would complain about that, I decided to go for it... I have not looked into it recently, and it was not available back then, but if there exists a perl module that wraps around SlimProtoLib (or something), that would be a good way to go... -- torp torp's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36068 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74375 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
