Streamtuner

Streamed Internet Radio: Streamtuner

This page is under construction. Please feel free to improve this!

It's intention is to show how to install a stream internet radio application on your OLPC. The only one easy to use I have found is Streamtuner, by: Jean-Yves Lefort [jylefort@brutele.be] found here: http://www.nongnu.org/streamtuner/ However, you should also know that this application is no longer supported. :(

Installation

This requires an internet connection, and some terminal activity...

In addition, Streamtuner requires (by default): Audacious (2.9 M) But if you already have Xmms installed that is much better, since I have MP3 working properly in that program. I have not been able to get Audacious to work with mp3 decoder/plugin... [Any suggestions?]

# yum install xmms

or

# yum install audacious

First you need to install the Repository Key (not strictly necessary) from: http://www.bennewitz.com/rpms/RPM-GPG-KEY.endur

# wget http://www.bennewitz.com/rpms/RPM-GPG-KEY.endur
# rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY.endur

Then you need to install the repositry RPM:

# rpm -i http://www.bennewitz.com/rpms/endurs_repo_i386-release-1.0-5.noarch.rpm

And then the Streamtuner itself from: http://www.bennewitz.com/rpms/fedora/7/i386/streamtuner-0.99.99-16.1.fc7.i386.rpm

# rpm -i http://www.bennewitz.com/rpms/fedora/7/i386/streamtuner-0.99.99-16.1.fc7.i386.rpm
# yum install streamtuner

somewhere along the lines above you will get a dependency error for audicious. I instead recommend to force the streamtuner installation without Audicious and intstall Xmms instead.

# rpm --nodeps -i XXXXX

Configuration

Start strematuner at least once to get the config files in place.

Edit the configuration file: ~/.streamtuner/config

You can then replace any occasion of "audicious" with "xmms".
