Rhythmweb lets you control Rhythmbox remotely, from your web browser. It is not an Internet radio server - it does not play music in your web browser, rather it lets you control Rhythmbox on a machine other than the one it is running on.
Rhythmweb was inspired by Joe Shaw's Banshee Media Server, which /is/ a Internet radio server.
This version is a fork of the original project created by Michael Gratton. The original version is available from his website.
To use Rhythmweb, you must have the following installed:
- Rhythmbox v0.11 (v0.10 might work)
- Python 2.5.
- python-gconf
- python-gtk2
- python-gobject
To install Rhythmweb run the following command as root:
make install
To install in the local plugin dir use:
make install-user
This will install the plugin to `/.local/share/rhythmbox/plugins' which
requires you use atleast Rhythmbox 0.12.0. Are you using an older version use:
DESTDIR=/.gnome2/rhythmbox/plugins make install
When the plugin has been enabled in Rhythmbox you can browse to the machine running Rhythmbox (per default the server will listen to port 8000, but that can be changed in the plugin preferences), eg: http://you-rb-host:8000/
