Build instructions and player

[pandom79]

Are there build instructions for linux amd64?
Actually, I built it but i'm not sure if it has been properly done.
I am not able to play music because there is not a player.
How can i resolve it ?
Thanks in advance.

Build what?

[pandom79]

slimserver ?

I created my build script from https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=logitechmediaserver

There are pre-built packages available: https://downloads.slimdevices.com/LogitechMediaServer_v8.3.1/

[pandom79]

In my case, it should be https://downloads.slimdevices.com/LogitechMediaServer_v8.3.1/logitechmediaserver-8.3.1.tgz.
Anyway, i think properly build the package but i don't understand why it says "No player found".
Should I install anything else ?

LMS is a music server application, not a player. You'd need a hardware player like a Squeezebox or a software emulator (https://github.com/ralph-irving/squeezelite). But if you didn't know that, then the LMS ecosystem probably isn't for you.

Resolved.
Thanks.

Posting here in the hope of getting in touch with @ralph-irving re SqueezePlay for Windows. Specifically, is it possible to Autoplay X Favourite on Startup following a network or power outage or PC reboot? Thank you!
