Subject: more FC2 wishlists.
This is probably too late for FC2, but NAS(Network Audio System) as well
as arts built for nas support would be nice. neither has much impact on
other parts of the system and both make setting up audio in terminals a
*lot* easier
Both artsd and esd support network audio over TCP themselves
already and have for years. I use esd as a network audio server
for about 2 years now between 2 machines to have all sound come
out one set of speakers.
Set the ESPEAKER variable to point to the machine running esd (on
client side), and read esd's commandline options, and make sure
no firewall is in the way.
artsd is a bit more crackrock to set up (which is why I used esd
instead), but it works also. One thing I'm not sure of is wether
artsd is itself using NAS, or if it has it's own builtin stuff.
Been ages since I played with it.
Hope this helps.
