LMS - Lightweight Media Server LMS is a free media streaming software, released on the GPLv3 license. It allows you to access your music and your videos using the following built-in services: - Web server - TCP/SSL server using a Protocol Buffers format (see https://github.com/google/protobuf/) LMS is written entirely in C++. Therefore, it is suitable to run on embedded devices, where space and/or memory are limited. Please note the media files are transcoded on-the-fly: this reduces compatibility issues but may need a lot of computation power, at least for HD videos. Features: - User management - "Winamp-style" interface - Audio/Video transcode (including downsampling), based on the libav project (see https://www.libav.org/) Please note LMS is still under development and will gain more features in the future. An android application is being developped as well. I) DEPENCIES Debian packages: libboost-dev libavcodec-dev libwtdbosqlite-dev libwthttp-dev libwtdbo-dev libwt-dev libprotobuf-dev libconfig++-dev libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler libjpeg8-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev Warning: your distrib may provide an outdated wt library. Using the latest Wt (>= 3.3.3) is highly recommended (see http://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt) II) BUILD # autoreconf -vfi # mkdir build # cd build # ../configure (configure will complain if a mandatory library is missing) # make III) Setting up SSL materials (required by the SSL server and the web server) This is just an example, you could do whatever you want (ca, self signed cert, etc.) Generate a dh file: # openssl dhparam -out dh2048.pem 2048 Generate a self signed certificate: # openssl req -x509 -out cert.pem -keyout privkey.pem -newkey rsa:4096 IV) RUNNING In the build directory: # ./lms lms.conf Create the lms.conf file using the etc/lms.sample.conf - "ui.resources.approot" has to refer to the ui/approot/ directory. - "ui.resources.docroot" has to refer to Wt's docroot (usually located in /usr/share/Wt) Depending on your SSL parameters, you may be asked for the PEM passphrase to unlock the private key.
