mt-daapd is a program which acts as an iTunes (DAAP) server for Linux and
|
|
|
|
|
other POSIX unixes. It may eventually support Win32 as well.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some random features that it supports:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Supports the Roku SoundBridge (query/browse/index support)
|
|
|
|
|
* Supports periodic rescans of the database
|
|
|
|
|
* Can advertise shoutcast streams
|
|
|
|
|
* Supports password-protected shares
|
|
|
|
|
* Is web-configurable and managable
|
|
|
|
|
* Support dynamic playlists, like iTunes "Smart playlists"
|
|
|
|
|
* Probably other things I've forgotten
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All is not perfect, however. Currently, there are several drawbacks to it:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* database is indexed by inode, so all music must be on one filesystem
|
|
|
|
|
* browse by artist is slow on Roku, times out (with large databases ~10K songs)
|
|
|
|
|
* Probably other things I've forgotten
