Hi.
I'm at my wits end with httpd streaming from mpd-0.15.7.
I installed the latest mpd package from snapshots and its installs fine on my
Openbsd -current system.
I modified the /etc/mpd.conf file by adding my music directory and set the
bind_to_address to "any"
audio_output {
type "httpd"
name "My HTTP Stream"
encoder "vorbis" # optional, vorbis or lame
port "8000"
# quality "5.0" # do not define if bitrate is
bitrate "128" # do not define if quality is
format "44100:16:1"
}
All this makes the control port 6600 show up (in netstat), but I can't for the
life of me get port 8000 to be open - thus no streaming.
I've tried to start mpd via "sudo mpd" and that still doesn't help.
Is there something I'm missing?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
:-)
Sarah
P.S.: My music files are all mp3 files, but varying the encoder setting above
make no difference.
