Thanks again for all the help. I think I will just wait on Mer to get cranking, and then see if I can build it easier in the OBS, with some tinkering on the LUA file for the interface. Not sure if you have any thoughts on how to streamline it any better, since it is pretty large with a lot of services running. If so, or if anyone else is interested in this, please let me know.

Qole, not sure if you are still reading this, AND this is completely off topic, but I am pretty sure I saw a pic on Flickr from you showing tear running in Mer. Right now porting tear over is on the list of things to do (though I guess waiting for Tear to get a bit more sorted out), and was wondering if that was a port or just running in a chroot. Even running a tear beta on mer would be better than Midori.

froghunter: It's the Mer desktop that's running in a chroot. (see this thread)

The problem with squeezeplay is that the "jive" program is an x86 binary. So you'll have to find the source code for that and compile it for ARM.

Thanks. I am playing around with the build service to see if it will build in ARM, but I guess you are saying that is unlikely. If it works will let you know.

Too bad about the tear port. I know it is coming, but midori has some issues and even a beta port would be great. There isn't a tar ball of the source around is there that I could see if the OBS would build from?

Actually I think that it should compile without any problems. I cant figure out, why it wouldnt. At least N770 has the same processor architecture as the original Squeezebox controller...
I just retrieved sources for Squeezeplay via svn from http://svn.slimdevices.com/repos/jive. I think that I could try to compile that, but at the moment I dont have any N770, or N8x0 available and I dont have environment for building at the moment (It has been 2 years since I last had one, any pointers to tutorials?). Could someone try to compile that and report here, if it is successfull?

I have just downloaded Scratchbox and the Maemo 2.2 SDK to try and compile Squeezeplay for my Nokia 770. It churned away for a long time and then errored with this:

Code:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I./src -I/home/ian/squeezeplay//build/linux/include -I/home/ian/squeezeplay//build/linux/include/SDL -I/home/ian/squeezeplay//build/linux/include/freetype2 -g -I/home/ian/squeezeplay//build/linux/include/SDL -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -D_REENTRANT -Wall -Wextra -Werror -Wdeclaration-after-statement -MF .deps/jive_event.Tpo -c src/ui/jive_event.c -o jive_event.o
cc1: error: unrecgonized option `-Wextra'
cc1: error: unrecognized option `-Wdeclaration-after-statement'
make[2]: *** [jive_event.lo] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/ian/squeezeplay/src/squeezeplay'
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ian/squeezeplay/src/squeezeplay'
make: *** [squeezeplay] Error 2

I'm not really technical enough to debug it, anyone got any tips?

What a shame this thread didnt go anywhere further.. Seemed that there was some good progress going on and IMGrant never got a reply.

Am a complete noob to this but the concept gives great potential to controling the squeezebox with a n770 n8** or n900 in a far better way than the web interface..

Maybe it has gone further in some other post.. anyone any ideas?

Check out this thread:

It seems pat has been able to get SqueezPlay running on the n800.
The Logitech software license doesn't allow him to post the binaries, unfortunately, but he says he is happy to help others build it themselves.

So this thread isn't dead, it's alive and very well elsewhere - great news.

P.S. The build instructions are posted on the Logitech Squeezbox message forums at:
