I created a folder called music in /home/pi/music, and mounted my usb drive in this folder using fstab by adding the line: Put some music files in the music folder and enjoy. rwxrwxr-x 1 pi pi 110 Jan 2 21:38 minimserver.shĬheck if minimserver is running using minimwatch and set the folderpaths for your music. Now safe the file with control-o, hit enter, quit using control-x.Ĭheck if the rights for the file are set using ls -l in the /home/pi folder: java -jar //home/pi/minimserver-0.63/lib/minimserver.jar -quiet -nohup & Which opens the file, and type the 2 following lines: Which creates a folder minimserver-0.63 in the /home/pi folder:ĭrwxr-xr-x 3 pi pi 4096 Jan 21 21:55 javaĭrwxr-xr-x 4 pi pi 4096 Nov 10 23:14 minimserver-0.63Ĭreate a command in a file called minimserver.sh with 2 lines using nano or pico: This creates a jdk1.7.0_10 folder within the java folder:ĭrwxr-xr-x 8 pi pi 4096 Nov 28 19:13 jdk1.7.0_10 Unpack, or expand java in the java folder: You should see both the java archive and the minimserver archive. Scp /Disk/Users/chief/ 3Īfter logging in type ls -l to see the list of files. Scp filepath/sourcefile my example I have both files in my home folder, so type in one line: From the terminal on your own machine the command is something like: This gives the following listing in /home/pi with ls -l:ĭrwxr-xr-x 2 pi pi 4096 Jan 21 21:33 javaĭrwxrwxrwx 2 pi pi 4096 Jan 21 21:33 musicĬopy the java distribution and minimserver to the pi using scp or secure ftp.

I am sure there is a better place to create these folders. We need 2 folders, one for Java, the second for your music since my knowledge is limited I create them in the /home/pi folder. If you can login you can also copy files to your /home/pi folder on the RBPi. The arm distribution, works on the raspberryPi:įirst try to connect to your RaspberryPi, using the terminal: Or search google for .ĭownload minimserver from. Get the java distribution and minimserverĭownload the distribution from: You should also know the ip adress already which is shown after booting up, or after typing in the command:Įth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr b8:27:eb:cc:3b:07 Set your password, and enable the ssh server.Īfter completing the steps mentioned, and other steps, you should have a working RBPi in your network. Follow the steps mentioned in the guide, type raspi-config to start configure your raspberrypi (RBPi). Short manual to get Minimserver working on RasberryPi, quick and dirty, it works for me, but needs refinement: a startup script is the first I would like to add, but for now all is working stable at my site.īurn it to your sd card, using the general information found on various websites.Ĭonnect the RaspberryPi to your TV and keyboard, start the computer. How's that for a cheap and easily transportable set-up? Total cost RB and Hitachi is about £110 (dead quiet too!).Ĭongratulations! This sounds like a great solution.Ĭould you post a summary of the steps that were needed to get this up and running? I had some issues with permissions etc, but trawling the web helped and it works now. Guy has a guide that helped me a lot (!). It's still early days, but it seems to be running OK with wav24 transcoding from 24/192 flac files where top shows a processor load of about 50%, so it seems to be running without too much of a burden on the RB. MinimServer runs on the RB and has as music directory the mounted USB drive.
