From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Florin Andrei Date: Thu, 17 Sep 1998 09:13:16 +0000 Subject: rplay Message-Id: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-sound@vger.kernel.org I really don't like to push, but i'm in a big hurry, so please answer quick! :-) I'm doing some experiments with rplay-rplayd. Locally (on one single computer) i can play .au files and also audio CD's ("rplay cdrom:"). Over a network i managed somehow to play sound files ("rplay --host=my.sound.server sample.au") but that's all. I wanna play live sound over a network, i.e. with two computers, no.1 having a sound source plugged into "line in" or "mic", no.2 having "line out" plugged into an amplifier. How can i do that? I tried to read /dev/dsp as sound source, but rplayd seems not to read it. When i compiled rplayd, i didn't put /dev as a forbidden directory (as opposed to the default setting). I also failed to play audio CDs over the net (having CD in one computer and listening it on another). How can i do that? The rplay documentation is really weak. It says it can play live sounds over a network, but there is no example! Only that stuff with the .au files. Please, if you have any solutions, send them quickly, i'm in a sort of trouble. I'll also appreciate any solution other than rplay to send sound over the net at a quality higher than RealAudio (i actually need an almost FM quality, or something that sounds like that for an unexperienced listener). Thanks. Florin Andrei
