9 mt-daapd is a program which acts as an iTunes (DAAP) server for Linux and
10 other POSIX unixes. It may eventually support Win32 as well.
12 Some random features that it supports:
14 * Supports the Roku SoundBridge (query/browse/index support)
15 * Supports periodic rescans of the database
16 * Can advertise shoutcast streams
17 * Supports password-protected shares
18 * Is web-configurable and managable
19 * Support dynamic playlists, like iTunes "Smart playlists"
20 * Probably other things I've forgotten
22 All is not perfect, however. Currently, there are several drawbacks to it:
24 * database is indexed by inode, so all music must be on one filesystem
25 * browse by artist is slow on Roku, times out (with large databases ~10K songs)
26 * Probably other things I've forgotten
