Hi, I managed yesterday to install and configure my Linksys WRT160NL as an Internet Radio. It works OK, but I have a question. How many processes MPD needs. If I run a PS, it lists 4 MPD processes with the same size. Is this OK? Now, I have about 2% free memory and also 2% free program space, and i...

Mine has 3 MPD processes. 2% free space is kind of low. Especially on your WRT160NL with 32MB of memory. Could your show us the output of 'top'? Also, please make a new topic instead of 'hijacking' this one about alternatives to the WL-520gU.

Shoutcast is not meant for real-time transmission. My guess would be that the system you describe would have a 1-2 second delay, which I guess is unacceptable. Also the delay between main speakers and floor monitors might be different. I think you could look into VoIP, as an alternative.

Just follow Jeff's instructions here on mightyohm. After you have done that edit /etc/init.d/mpd and add the following at the end of the start section: /usr/bin/mpc repeat on /usr/bin/mpc volume 100 /usr/bin/mpc add http://example.com:123/your-stream-url /usr/bin/mpc add http://example.com:123/optio...

That is some good looking code. Thanks for sharing. I'm not using LastFM, but who knows.

You could run the code on a webserver and have the router only wget the current/next song. The shell script only has to update the playlist if the song in the wget changed, or something like that. Just a thought.

I didn't think of that. It does explain a lot.

I would try to return the router, and get a another one. Who knows what kind of damage the 12v has done. Or was it a second hand one?

What do you mean by the usb is getting hot. Do you mean the empty port, the usb audio adapter, the plug part of the usb adapter, or do you have a usb-hub between it. What leds are flashing? But more importantly; is the router still working without the audio adapter plugged in? My guess would be a fa...

Scrollwheel doesn't work in telnet. Just keep pressing the down key till you are at the bottom of the screen. If you continue pressing it more lines will appear.

A very short version of how 'vi' works: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=394&p=1957#p1957

You just need to scroll further down.

- /etc/mpd.conf 1/276 0%

This means you are on line 1 of the 276. So your file has 276 lines, not just the 23 you posted. Mine also has 276 lines, so that seems to be OK.
