I'm looking for some help on the required packages to be installed on Ubuntu 14.04 Server to get LMS to play audio files & radio stations.
I have successfully installed and am currently using LMS on Ubuntu "Desktop" 14.04.
I would like to install it on the server version Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS [server] edition. If you REALLY need to know why, please PM, don't want to fill this thread with off-topic chatter.
I tried to install LMS v7.9 on 14.04 server, but could not get any audio to work.
I'm not sure what audio libraries, codecs etc etc I need to install to make it work. I installed ALSA, but still no sound. Logitech media server logs would report "Unable to play mp3 stream from [radio URL]" That indicates lame, but /bin/lame existed.
I'm using the dpkg --install [lms].pkg file to install, not apt-get. As the version it installs using apt-get does not work due to perl incompatibilities.
Anyone know what libraries/codecs/supporting programs are needed for a successful install on the 'server' version, not the desktop version?
Thanks!
