Re: Is this the NAS/"upnp" fix we need?

While I don't have experience with shfs directly (I use nfs instead), the way to install this would be through the opkg package manager used by openwrt:

Code: Select all

opkg install kmod-shfs shfs-utils
By the way, mpd does have the ability to save/load playlist files, and it uses the M3U format.

Re: New WL520GU approach - building on the shoulders of gian

It looks like this device cannot be used as a USB sound-card. It's just an mp3 player with built-in fm radio and voice recorder. The only function the router could access through USB is most likely the flash memory. All other functions (radio, voice recorder, playback) are controlled through the but...

Re: WL-520GU on Linksys WRT54G with DD-WRT

A lot depends on your specific network/wireless setup. Perhaps looking at my config is helpful for you: /etc/config/network: config 'switch' 'eth0' config 'interface' 'loopback' option 'ifname' 'lo' option 'proto' 'static' option 'ipaddr' '127.0.0.1' option 'netmask' '255.0.0.0' config 'interface' '...

Re: Hacking a NAS to do the same thing (without the WIFI ofc

What about the D-Link DNS-323? No personal experience, but it seems like that one is pretty hackable. Still, NAS devices are notoriously expensive. Your best bet may actually be to try and find an older mini-itx EPIA board (to be had a few 10's of £'s on ebay), and build a small NAS out of it. Add s...

Re: MPD 0.15 and MPC 0.16

Yesterday I installed the 10.03 Backfire release of OpenWrt on a WL-500G deluxe. This release comes with a pretty extensive build of mpd 0.15.8. Here's the output of mpd --version: mpd (MPD: Music Player Daemon) 0.15.8 Copyright (C) 2003-2007 Warren Dukes <warren.dukes@gmail.com> Copyright (C) 2008 ...

Re: Installing Firmware and Apps Using WAMP Server

What do you mean by upgrading the firmware through a WAMP server? The firmware is upgraded by TFTP'ing it to the router. I cannot find any mention by Jeff of using a WAMP server.

Re: Looking for Larger Alphanumeric Display

My main source that helped me get something on the display was this site: http://web.media.mit.edu/~gracewoo/stuff/picframe/ Are each of those items new programs that will have to be ...

Re: Looking for Larger Alphanumeric Display

If I ever get around to it, my plan is to use a photoframe as a full-color, hi-res display for my mpd box (which is based on a WL-500G router), showing things like album art etc. Physically connecting a display isn't hard at all, since many of these frames can be used as secondary monitors through U...

Re: share your pics!

I would, but my wifi-radio still looks like a router, so it's not the most interesting project to show, I'm afraid, although it works great :)
