SqueezePlay

Installing SqueezePlay

Building SqueezePlay did not work for me, I got the player running, however with faulty display refresh and no sound. The steps I took are indicated below.

I ended up installing wine and the windows version of SqueezePlay, which runs without any problems. Here are the steps:

  1. Install wine with apt-get
  2. Download SqueezePlay from here: http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.7
  3. run winefile, find the downloaded installer file

Initially, I had sound, but after rebooting, I could not make the sound work anymore.

Building SqueezePlay

These instructions worked

However, the player cannot connect to the network. Some problem with LUA.
