AmahiTunes
AmahiTunes is an Amahi-customized version of the FireFly Media Server.
FireFly is built to be the best server software to serve digital music to the Roku Soundbridge, Songbird, and iTunes; to be able to serve the widest variety of digital music content over the widest range of devices.
Most users can simply copy their files to the music directory and access them with iTunes (or similar).
For hard core users, to access the web UI simply access the URL http://hda:3689 To access the UI the default:
- user: admin
- password: mt-daapd
Issues
If you are unable to see the AmahiTunes in Windows Vista, check that the Bonjour Service is running, and set the service is set to Automatic.
Sometimes the AmahiTunes server may not appear in iTunes on XP/Vista machines. One solution is to restart the "Bonjour Service" - this is sometimes stopped by Apple's installers. Details here.
For new users and you have the latest version of Itunes. To see the amahitunes in the sidebar in itunes. Go to your Preferences under itunes, then to sharing tab then click to tell itunes to look for shared libraries
Songbird requires the "Songbird DAAP Client" addon. As of Jan 2010, you may have to manually edit the addon to get it to work with the current version of Songbird -- see comments on the Addon's page.
