Repository files navigation

Name: Pi Audio Player

This is a Mini Open-Source Project and is basically intended for the rasperry-pi-developing community

You can find the repository to the code here: https://github.com/Hyper-Node/SSHMediaPlayer

Description: App which connects from Android to Raspberry Pi (or any another Linux device) to play music. Music is played with mpc (which is a command line media player for linux) on Raspberry. The connection to the Raspberry is made with SSH (Secure Shell). The Smartphone works as a controller which sends weblinks to the RaspBerry Pi, the weblinks are added to a playlist and played from the internet on the pi.

At the first start the settings pop up. It's mandatory to give the correct ip and ssh-Port of your Raspberry Pi in the network then. Be sure to add username and password if you configured your SSH to use this.

Features:

  • Adding music streams and mp3 by pasting a weblink to playlist
  • SSH connection to Raspberry Pi
  • Volume control with Smartphone audio buttons
  • Skip to a percentage of the song with a seekbar
  • Saving/reloading preferences

Requirements (on Android) Wifi Connection to Raspberry Pi (Pi is in same LAN)

Requirements (on Raspberry Pi) Raspbian or other Linux-System, (I tested against Raspbian) SSH Server active, Audio-Speakers, Internet Connection,

mpc, mpd and mp3-Codecs (Install like this): $ sudo apt-get install mpd mpc $ sudo apt-get install mpg321 lame

The App uses the jsch SSH library by JCraft(link): http://www.jcraft.com/jsch/
