無語録むごろく

註:寫這篇文章可能有點長，不過中間有很多地方日後可能會修改，所以這個是未完成的哦~!要是當成參考也是可以的，請給多一點耐心看一下。

某天忽發奇想，要是帶這麼多歌回公司，不如自已建一台 media streaming server ，那只要上網就可以聽到自已想聽的歌曲了。
(雖然好像非常浪費電力......我家那台舊機器辛苦了)

好，返回正題，我們先從 streaming server 入手，我選擇了 icecast2 ，原因無他，因為在 Linux 下選擇好像不多。

首先，想辨法安裝好 icecast 2 ，這個取決於你們用什麼 distro ，我這裏是 Gentoo ，其他看倌們自已想辦法好了。

之後就來到 Configuration 的階段︰

<icecast>
    <limits>
        <clients>100</clients>
        <sources>2</sources>
        <threadpool>5</threadpool>

        <client-timeout>30</client-timeout>
        <header-timeout>15</header-timeout>
        <source-timeout>10</source-timeout>
        <!-- If enabled, this will provide a burst of data when a client 
             first connects, thereby significantly reducing the startup 
             time for listeners that do substantial buffering. However,
             it also significantly increases latency between the source
             client and listening client.  For low-latency setups, you
             might want to disable this. -->
        <burst-on-connect>1</burst-on-connect>
        <!-- same as burst-on-connect, but this allows for being more
             specific on how much to burst. Most people won't need to
             change from the default 64k. Applies to all mountpoints  -->
        <burst-size>65535</burst-size>
    </limits>

以上是我個人的 Setting ，當然每個人的設定都不盡相同，我這裏是作參考的，有什麼問題可以自已到 icecast 的網頁自已慢慢研究，網址如下︰

Icecast Official Site

相搞好了 media streaming server ，那我們可以想一想用什麼來做 source client 。
當然，我們可以把曲目放到 icecast 的 base dir 中 ，寫好 playlist 就可以播。但我不喜歡把所有的曲歌曲都轉為 Ogg 格式，所以把可試的都試過後，選擇了 MPD。

MPD 是什麼可以看一下以下網址︰

MPD Official Site

當然我們要先安裝好，之後又是 Configuration ︰

###########################################################

當設定好後，便可以用 init script 把這個 service 啓動︰

/etc/init.d/mpd start

之後就是 MPD 的 front-end ，我選用了 MPC 因為可以在 shell 中控制，不用 GUI ，對我來說就可以 remote control 了。

安裝好 MPD 後，

請啓動以下 commands ︰

mpc update
mpc ls | mpc add
mpc play

好了，到了這個地步，所有的東西都準備好，只要用可以聽 stream 的 players ，就可以在任何一台可以上網的電腦上收聽了。

看起來很簡單吧，看倌們可以自已一試~!
