On the frontend I have been using jplayer for a while but have recently started using pure html5 for some smaller files. For an example of several streaming solutions combined into a single website you can visit this url: http://madprof.channellinux.com/ The site is written with html5 and jquery for the front end and a small amount of php for the backend. If you are able to roll your own you could copy the jquery and repurpose it for your own system. You will need a virtual machine to run the icecast stream but you can get them for less than E5/month these days from various hosting providers so that should not break the bank. -- Patrick Shirkey Boost Hardware Ltd > my current list is small and all save one require a full-blown CMS+DB > install: > > * Pushtape http://pushtape.com > - currently only Drupal based > > * CASH Music platform http://cashmusic.org > - PHP+DB requirement for self hosting > - also available as a free/beer service hosted by CASH Music with > embeddable widgets > - currently no streaming support > > * WordPress > - there are some freemium plugins for hosting a music store, etc. but > again i am trying to avoid the setup+maintenance of a full CMS > > * indieTorrent https://indietorrent.org > - online only service > - very interesting/cool manifesto https://indietorrent.org/docs/manifesto/ > - not lots of activity but still kicking > https://indietorrent.org/4rum/viewtopic.php?f=1&p=39#p39 > - not specifically for self hosting but as it is open source it could be > done > > > others (ReverbNation, Jamendo, Magnatune, Bandcamp, Bandpage, thesixtyone, > etc) are all either non-libre, non-self hosting, etc. > > if anyone has any items to add to this list, experience with a service, > homemade solutions, etc. i would appreciate them sharing it. i figure > since we all go through various amounts of trouble to follow our > principles/passions/whatever by using free/libre tools when making music, > sharing it would be no different. > > thanks, w > _______________________________________________ > Linux-audio-user mailing list > Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user > _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
