Hi All,
I have bought the airmusic NW11 box:
root@airmusic:~# dmesg
Linux version 2.6.39.4 (jh@srv64) (gcc version 4.5.4 20110808 (prerelease) (Linaro GCC 4.5-2011.08) ) #5 Fri Nov 7 17:28:25 CST 2014
SoC: Atheros AR9330 rev 1
Clocks: CPU:400.000MHz, DDR:400.000MHz, AHB:200.000MHz, Ref:25.000MHz
Kernel command line: board=TL-WR703N console=ttyATH0,115200 rootfstype=squashfs,jffs2 noinitrd
MIPS: machine is TP-LINK TL-WR703N v1
wr703NI have modified the "ushare" as you recommended:
root@airmusic:~# cat /etc/config/ushare
config 'ushare'
option 'username' 'nobody'
option 'servername' 'Airmusic'
option 'interface' 'wlan1'
option 'content_directories' '/tmp/mnt'
option 'disable_telnet' '1'
option 'disable_webif' '1'
option 'enabled' '1'
At the beginning, I had problem with it, my *.flac files were not visible,
while I could see directories. I had to enable the 'disable_webif' option.
After that, I could share/unshare folders under GUI, which has made
files visible for me (even under sub-directories).
In my case the [option 'content_directories' '/tmp/mnt'] did not help.
I see, the "ushare" creates a kind of configuration file,
which contains shared music files see:
root@airmusic:~# ls -l /tmp/mnt/disk-a0/.??*
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4264 Jan 1 08:02 /tmp/mnt/disk-a0/.udisklistI see, the "ushare" is unstable. Sometimes it hangs, sometimes crashes.
It seems, the problems appears when I create play list, which is probably
not supported or when I move forward/backward the playing song.
So, I created crontab job (as recommended by you):
root@airmusic:~# crontab -l
* * * * * if [ `ps | grep -c ushare` != 2 ] ; then /etc/init.d/ushare restart ; fi > /dev/null 2>&1It restarts the "ushare" when it crashes, but I have to wait sometimes
longer than 1 minute to get the Airmusic server visible on my android apps.
It is unpredictable to use ushare on this box. I use:
BubbleUPnP, AirWire, AllConnect, GinkoDlna.
The last one shows Airmusic's IP and connection errors, which is helpful to see
when Airmusic server is available again.
I also used the "airmusic" android application, which is recommended by equipment
supplier, but it plays music when I am directly connect with the box.
I had a look around at configuration files on this box:
root@airmusic:~# ls /etc/rc.d/
K90network S39usb S50telnet S90firewall
K98boot S40network S50ushare S95done
K99umount S42wanlan S50wifi_save S97watchdog

I see all my songs: http://192.168.1.100/play.shtml
DLNA clients has to be disconnected form the airmusic box. I does not work for me
with the firefox (I do not see songs, but the only playing bar).
So be careful, which browser you use for this link.
It is a very simple web GUI, but it works. It does not hang, it is available in your
home network (you do not have to be connected directly to your airmusic box).
Does anybody of you know the SHTML and is willing to extend this GUI ?
It looks like the play.shtml is not finished by its author yet.
Please let me know if you have any related questions.
Cheers, Chris
. That's a shame because he was agree to share his work on the SPDIF driver that he has done... May be the community could have done the analog driver...
