GNUMP3D in Zenwalk

| April 7th, 2009

Hello Internet.

It has been an long time i had written anything for GET-IT-DONE-FAST. but its time to cut the glass , from past few days i was working on Ubuntu 8.04 /8.10
And i have came across GNUMP3D  an live music  streaming interface for your music directory,
Which can be eventually shared on Internet and you will be able to listen to your music wherever your if you have an Internet connection.

Now i will stop bugging and explaining what GNUMP3D  can do because  you will know that for your self  soon.
Here we begin the process of
GNUMP3D  installation

1.   Creating a directory inside your usr/src location with the name gnump3d “mkdir /usr/srcgnump3d” Note:don’t forget to become root before doing this
2.   Then move to the created directory “cd /usr/src/gnump3
3.    Downloading the
GNUMP3D from “wget http://savannah.gnu.org/download/gnump3d/gnump3d-3.0.tar.gz” This commend will get a file for you with the extension ‘tar.gz’
4.   Now extracting it “tzr xvzf gnump3d-3.0.tar.gz” once you run this commend you will get a directory by name ‘gnump3d-3.0/’
5.   Now go to the directory which has been created while you extracted your ‘
gnump3d-3.0.tar.gz’ file via “cd gnump3d-3.0
6.   Once your are in the directory then just execute “make install“  and poof you are done installing the
GNUMP3D
7.   Now we need to edit an file “nano /etc/gnump3d/gnump3d.conf“  once you are inside this file there are two values you must change and the rest depends on your requirement.
a.    Search for   the line ‘port = 8888′ and you can change the port here if you wish
b.   Search for the line ‘user = gnump3d’ and make it as “user = root
c.   Search for the line ‘root = /var/music/’ or similar to this and change it and point it to your music directory like i did “root = /home/khairulla/windows2/KHAIRULLA-DATA/EXTRA/MUSIC/”
8.   You are done configuring the file now you can save and exit the file by “Ctrl+O” to save and “Ctrl+X” to exit
9.   Once you exit from the file
“nano /etc/gnump3d/gnump3d.confnow its time to start your GNUMP3D server by “/usr/bin/gnump3d start &” and your will get some log and finally the log will say that the server is running on http://localhost:8888

You know this is the end now just open your browser and enjoy the music from your browser only moreover if you are listening music in Zenwalk itself then you can even use Mplayer or Mplayer plugin for your ‘Iceweasel’
and enjoy the music.
