Hello, my name is Andrei and I'm from Russia, then sorry for my bad english)
I have already setup asus like you say on youtube. point to point - now its working perfect thru my AP at home.
but now i want to move it another place, where stream has a proxy connection.
What should I do to configurate it?

Apparently there is a set of proxy settings you can add to your mpd.conf file (although I have never tried these myself):

Code: Select all

http_proxy_host <hostname>
    Use to specify the proxy host used for HTTP connections. 
http_proxy_port <port>
    The port that the HTTP proxy host uses. 
http_proxy_user <username>
    If the HTTP proxy server requires authentication, this specifies the username. 
http_proxy_password <password>
    If the HTTP proxy server requires authentication, this specifies the password. 

Hope this helps,

Jeroen

thx!

http_proxy_user <username>
If the HTTP proxy server requires authentication, this specifies the username.

can I use domain name here?
for example "

http_proxy_user ORG\W.Smith

"

If your proxy does not require authentication, try leaving those settings out. If your proxy does require a username and password, then you would enter them for the <username> and <password>.

I have never tried to use a proxy with mpd, so I have no idea if it works (or the version running on the router even supports it).
