[airtime 1.8] no "On Air" when enabling soundcard play: possible solution

Hi,

After upgrading to 1.8, I lost all playback abilities. I'd tried several things, uninstalling / reinstalling and finally tracked it down to liquidsoap. I had forgotten back when 1.6 was out, there was a problem with the bundled liquidsoap on 32-bit systems and the suggested workaround was to check out a branch and build from source.

If you have a 32-bit system, this might be your problem. I've installed the liquidsoap build to /opt/liquidsoap and I've dropboxed it in case you'd like to give it a try:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/540179/WGOT-LP/liquidsoap.tar.bz2

Once you extract this archive, you'll find several subdirs (bin, lib, ...) but the only files that matter are in the bin subdir.

If you haven't installed airtime yet, rename / save the binaries in the python_apps/pypo/liquidsoap/ directory that was created when extracting the 1.8 archive and replace them with the ones in my bin. Then run the airtime_install script.

If you've already installed it, replace the files in /usr/lib/airtime/pypo/bin/liquidsoap/ instead.

Restart pypo / reboot and see if that helps. I can now play audio from the soundcard and also stream icecast.
