I also installed gdbm and libid3tag. firefly.org mentioned it.
Code:ipkg install gdbmCode:ipkg install libid3tagSollieDownloading Dependencies
The only things necessary to install mt-daapd is libid3tag, the library used for ID3 tag reading, and gdbm. Libid3tag is part of MAD (http://www.underbit.com/products/mad/), the MPEG Audio Decoder. GDBM will almost certainly be provided by your distribution... even if you use one as goofy as, say, Solaris. Install this package in the manner appropriate for you distribution (fink install libid3tag on Mac OSX, emerge libid3tag on gentoo, etc).

Hi Sollie,Originally Posted by sollie
firefly.org? Don't you mean http://www.fireflymediaserver.org/ ?
But then still I can't find your quotes. Besides, I have both installed but I did not do that myself a far as I know.

Yeah i ment http://www.fireflymediaserver.org. I am sorry for that.
Last week i did a fresh install, so i could check the steps. When i was compiling, i got an error about missing the "libid3tag" but not about "gdbm". This one i found on there page.
After a successful compilation i could not get it running. That was becoz i run my shell as root, so i had to change the "runas' tag in the conf-file into root. That was all.

I'm trying to replace my media server with mt-daapd.
When I try to start mt-daapd, it needs libz.so.
When I try to install this lib with ipkg, it answers that a symlink could not be created.
How to ????

Just to be sure, it is the zlib package that you are installing, right? (ipkg install zlib)
Are you running the install with root privileges?

No Soundbridge for me anymore.
I have decided not to wait any longer for an update of mt-daapd. I will sell or give away my Pinnacle Soundbridge, because it has no native OGG Vorbis support.
No device in my household will be allowed anymore if it does not have OGG Vorbis support.
In stead I have bought a Ziova Clearstream CS-510. That one does OGG Vorbis, but it has a very weak wireless encryption (WEP), with WPA only as a promise in the manual. Nevertheless, I will give it some credit and wait (again) for a FW-update with WPA2.
Sollie, am I right that you own a Ziova Clearstream too?
I have searched for media and music servers *a lot* and still did not find one that does this:
- Wireless WPA2
- OGG Vorbis
- music without TV
- video and photo's
- No Windows-dependancy
The Ziova at least fulfills the most and promises to fulfill all.
I found a nice site about media servers and streaming: http://www.mpcclub.com/
