slimp3slave Description

slimp3slave - Command-line program implementing a SLIMP3 client slimp3slave is a command-line program implementing a SLIMP3 client. slimp3slave will allow you to use the SLIMP3 server software to control the sound coming out of your computer. slimp3slave produces a similar result to running mpg123 http://slimserver:9000/stream.mp3, but uses the SLIMP3's UDP protocol to stream the music and to control mpg123. The advantage is that the client is much more responsive.slimp3slave was written on Linux, and is definitely on the quick-and-evil hack side of programming. It requires an MP3 decoder that can decode data piped to it on standard input. By default slimp3slave uses mpg123, but doing so is not recommended. mpg123 ( and mpg321 have difficulties dealing with partial frames that are often generated by the server.Originally written by Paul Warren, slimp3slave has been extended by Rob Funk to include a curses-based UI so you can see what's on the LCD display and control the player through the client interface using the keyboard.
