Raspberry Pi - Show Player
#4
Hi Correl,

Sorry we don't have a youtube video for the Pi at present. Once you have done the apt-get on the libao and mpg123 you need to copy the player.tar to the Pi. You can either use a file transfer utility like pscp.exe (see http://www.putty.org ) or copy the file using and a USB Memory stick.

You can mount a USB Memory Stick on the Pi with a mount commands such as below:
sudo mount -t vfat -o uid=pi,gid=pi /dev/sda1 /media/usb

You can then copy from the Memory stick with the cp command:
cp /media/usb/player.tar .

You can use the same method to transfer your shows and music files to the Pi.

To start the player automatically when the pi boots you need to edit the /etc/rc.local file and add your player command that you want to run. (Any commands in /etc/rc.local file will be executed whenever the Pi starts).

You can edit the file with an editor such as nano
sudo nano /etc/rc.local

Hope that helps.

Craig.
