First off, i'd like to thank Tim for his time and effort. I have been using Moode audio for a week or so and everything is outstanding! This is quality software.
I'm looking for a way to broadcast the output of my PI running Moode Audio to another computer (in the garage, on the same LAN, running Linux). I did this in the past by using MPD on the PI and by adding these lines to /etc/mpd.conf:
audio_output {
type "pulse"
name "GARAGE"
server "192.168.2.14"
}
The computer in the garage was configured to act as a PulseAudio client and everything was working fine. I read a couple of forum treads in here and i undertsand that Moode Audio's PHP is constantly rewriting the mpd.conf and that it only allows one output at a time. I tried and modified /var/www/inc/playerlib.php::wrk_mpdconf() to get my "garage-output" persistant in the mpd.conf but it seems to crash MPD and Moode UI in the first place, persistance or not.
Am I looking in the right direction? Is there any other way to manage multi-room outputs over the LAN?
