What it is
|
|
----------
|
|
This program emulates an Airport Express for the purpose of streaming music from
|
|
iTunes and compatible iPods. It implements a server for the Apple RAOP protocol.
|
|
|
|
It probably supports multiple simultaneous streams, if your audio output chain
|
|
(as detected by libao) does so.
|
|
|
|
How to use it
|
|
-------------
|
|
1. Make sure avahi-daemon is running and the prerequisites are installed (see
|
|
INSTALL).
|
|
2. Edit shairport.pl with your favourite text editor to set the access
|
|
point name and/or password, if desired.
|
|
3. `perl shairport.pl`
|
|
|
|
The triangle-in-rectangle Airtunes logo will appear in the iTunes status bar of
|
|
any machine on the network, or on iPod play controls screen. Choose your access
|
|
point name to start streaming to the Shairport instance.
|

Thanks

|
Big thanks to David Hammerton for releasing an ALAC decoder, which is reproduced
|
|
here in full.
|
|
Thanks to everyone who has worked to reverse engineer the RAOP protocol - after
|
|
finding the keys, everything else was pretty much trivial.
|
|
Thanks also to Apple for obfuscating the private key in the ROM image, using a
|
|
scheme that made the deobfuscation code itself stand out like a flare.
|
|
Thanks to wtbw.
