I have to say, I'm getting more comfortable with #systemd services. And I find it fascinating how with its templates and powerful dependency feature I could achieve some wild, very dynamic stacking of @gstreamer, @pipewire, #mpd, #mpv and #SAP / #RFC2974 with only a few lines for various systemd services. So for instance a #multicast SAP announcement of @schenklradio will only appear if something plays on that pipewire device, which only happens if that radio is on air and reachable.

anyone love / care to recommend any cool internet radio streams? I spent some time setting up a few m3u streams in my mpd setup and I'm SO HAPPY to have some new music to explore about years of listening to my library over and over!

Стриминг музыки со своего сервера

YouTube Music , «Яндекс Музыка» , Spotify , SoundCloud — относительно удобные музыкальные сервисы, но с недостатками: плохая работа в офлайне; отсутствие поддержки lossless; абонентская плата; неполная фонотека; многое другое... Их коллекции далеки от полноты. Редких треков вообще нет. Более того, музыка иногда просто пропадает из-за каких-то заморочек с авторскими правами. К счастью, очень легко организовать стриминг музыки со своего сервера. Хранить всю музыкальную коллекцию у себя на компьютере — зачастую надёжнее, удобнее и дешевле, чем облачный сервис.

someone asked recently why anyone would want to use a #bash shell. In my defence, I was listening to #mpd and wondered what a track was, two tracks back, and yes, I could be crude about it, but no, in a few minutes I had

grep played /var/log/mpd/mpd.log | cut -f 1,2,4 -d ':' | sed 's/played[^/]*\///;s/.mp3"$//' | cut -c 8- | tail

gives a list like

22:37 : Eighth Street Orchestra/221230 Drom Taberna/12-Route 66

fiddling with my NAS again. I've got music copied to it, and it seems to me that's the right place for it.

Looking at #MPD again. I like the idea, but I can't get my head around it. Can you get a client to play music **ON THE CLIENT**, not on the server? That's the WTF feature for me. I don't want the machine connected to the hifi to be the one that stores the music…
