http://gnump3d.sourceforge.net

This software package (in perl) enables you to setup your mp3 archive for streaming, as well as full browsing of the mp3 tags via the web.

Supposedly it works great under OS X.

However I dont' have the make command, is there anyone who has this precompiled that I can use?

Suggestions?

No I DO not have my developer tools cd.

If the package's in perl, then tere is no need to have the make utility. Perl comes bundled with OS X ( or at least came, can't check, I'm at work). So you should not need the dev tools.

What exactly is your problem ?

the install is done with a "make install". So while compiling, etc may not be needed, the make utility is still used.

As for suggestions, yes, sign up (free) for the Apple Developer program and download the latest Dev CD.

Alternatively, you could do the install by hand

Code:
install: install -d $(LIBDIR)/gnump3d/plugins install -d $(PREFIX)/share/gnump3d install -d $(PREFIX)/bin install -d $(PREFIX)/man/man1 install -d /var/log/gnump3d install -d /etc/gnump3d cp lib/gnump3d/*.pm $(LIBDIR)/gnump3d cp lib/gnump3d/plugins/*.pm $(LIBDIR)/gnump3d/plugins cp bin/gnump3d2 $(PREFIX)/bin/ -ln -s $(PREFIX)/bin/gnump3d2 $(PREFIX)/bin/gnump3d cp bin/gnump3d-top $(PREFIX)/bin cp man/gnump3d-top.1 $(PREFIX)/man/man1 cp man/gnump3d.1 $(PREFIX)/man/man1 cp man/gnump3d.conf.1 $(PREFIX)/man/man1 cp -R templates/* $(PREFIX)/share/gnump3d chmod -R a+r $(PREFIX)/share/gnump3d/ chmod +rx $(PREFIX)/share/gnump3d/*/ if [ -e /etc/gnump3d/gnump3d.conf ]; then cp /etc/gnump3d/gnump3d.conf /etc/gnump3d/gnump3d.conf-or ig ; fi sed "s#PLUGINDIR#${LIBDIR}#g" etc/gnump3d.conf > /etc/gnump3d/gnump3d.conf cp etc/mime.types /etc/gnump3d
do all the copies, persmission changes, etc. Your call.

I've been using this through MP3 Sushi for a while now and really like it. However, it tends to quit on me intermittently, and I can't figure out what causes it. So I've been thinking of installing GNUmp3d directly, hoping that would solve the problem. Assuming I did so, how hard would it be to have it automagically start up at boot?

it would require to read a document . Then tweaking two files should be enough.

It requires reading?! Ahh NOOOOOOOO!



OK I've been meaning to get comfortable with startup items. This would be a nice practice service.

TY the link Ludovic.

Wow, gnump3d is sweet. Great for using on the LAN. It's like iTunes sharing for any type of client.

Yeh gnump3d is nice. I like how it shows the song titles and times. Some might like MP3 Sushi, which has it built into a nice little GUI.

I'm surprised there aren't better themes available yet though.

I wonder if we could recruit some Mac html jockeys to help create some better themes? I know we must have some talent lurking around here somewhere.

Hey,
Do any of you know if there are plans to update Gnu Mp3d for AAC files? I'd love to be able to start ripping my CDs as AAC, but I listen to them in a linux lab with Mp3 Sushi, and there's apparently a plugin for AAC and xmms, so really it's only mp3d that's holding me back, right? Any advice?

Thanks!

I made a request for it here: http://gnump3d.sourceforge.net/forum...opic.php?t=114

The author is busy with a move right now though I think.

You can add support for any audio type yourself. Edit /Library/Perl/gnump3d/files.pm. aac is already in the list of AUDIO_SUFFIXES, but if you want to stream Apple's m4p's to authorized computers, you'll need to add that type manually.

The list of soundfile types is alphabetical as shipped. I don't know if the code relies on a sorted list of types, not having examined it thoroughly, but it's probably a good idea to maintain that sort order. So add:

$AUDIO_SUFFIXES{ "m4p" } = 1;

at line 65, just below:

$AUDIO_SUFFIXES{ "it" } = 1;

If you must use pico, make sure to specify the -w flag so pico doesn't hard-wrap lines and break the module.

Restart gnump3d, and you should be good to go. In my limited testing, it works very well.

Took me all of 3 minutes to get gnump3d up and running, streaming my home music to my Linux box at work (XMMS). Easy easy easy.

Now, what about taking iTunes playlists, and converting them to .m3u(?) format?

cheers,
Mike
