You know, maybe the first thing we should do is try using the raspberry pi as a drop in replacement for the current stream. What that means is just sourcing the credentials that allow the current stream to send off to the server, and putting those credentials into the raspberry pi to use it as the stream source. Then we just physically plug the audio out of the computer into the USB audio device attached to the RPi, and it should just work. That would at least be a good proof of concept of the first "hop" we intend in the new paradigm. After that, we can set up a stream relay on my server, sourcing the published stream, and that way we can start playing around with stream scheduling and fixed playlist queuing and things like that. I will walk through all of the above tonight to make sure people understand and can duplicate this stuff themselves. --Naomi On Wednesday, March 13, 2013, Marina Kukso wrote: Great! Also my mother will be there and we might try chatting a bit on the current stream :) I'm not sure how late I'll be able to stay after the meeting, but will try!

I am willing to donate my own equipment if we get it all set up and working tonight. I just can't donate this particular RPi since it's not mine. but like I said last time, it can live in the studio until a clone steps up to take its place. As far as stream scripting goes, I am ready to "teach" the craft tonight, and most likely we can workshop the whole sudo radio chain into existence in the process. sound ok?

No need to hope, it works quite well. I set up this raspi about 2 months ago (at sudo room, no less) and have been testing it as a stream source ever since. Why ices-cc? Just curious. I have been using darkice. Another stream source option software wise is liquidsoap, but I was not able to get its alsa module working last time I tried. I think it would be cute to have an RPi at each "end" of the radio. I have some experience now with the GPIO pins, having made a physical button that switches on/off the darkice service, so maybe I can help. --Naomi On Wednesday, March 13, 2013, Mischa Spiegelmock wrote: Sure, hopefully a raspi is good enough to handle the audio coming from USB and encode to mp3 at the same time. It'd be best if we could figure out how to get ices-cc to work on a raspi broadcasting from the audio input device. I'm trying to do the opposite thing right now: rig up a raspi that is always playing the sudoradio. I've got a LCD display hooked up and figured out how to drive it with the GPIO serial pins, so it could even be a little self-contained box with a current track/artist/title readout.
