Installation 110 on other Distros

[edit] Notes for other Distros

On some distros, like Fedora8 the commoncpp2-devel comes without zlib support, and the SDL-devel package won't be recognized by MMS' configure script. In this case you should download libcommoncpp2-devel here:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1523&package_id=41672&release_id=315360

and SDL-devel here

http://www.libsdl.org/download-1.2.php

Then compile it yourself, and use

./configure --prefix=/usr
make && make install

in both cases, else MMS' configure won't find the appropriate libs, or use at least ldconfig.

I couldn't find alsaplayer-devel on Fedora 8 using yum, that's why I've configured it like this

./configure --disable-alsaplayer --enable-xine-audio

Therefor you have to set up in /etc/mms/AudioConfig

# Audio player
# Select the audio player to be used
# choose between: Xine Audio, Gstreamer, Alsaplayer
#
audio_player = Xine Audio

If you dependent on alsaplayer for what reason ever, you've got to download the source package from the developers site, or find a yum/rpm Package.

Note: Didn't test this myself.

All other packages, that I didn't mentioned here, were straight forward here on a Fedora 8 system.

If you have any questions, leave a note at our forum or visit us at #mms@irc.freenode.net.

Have Fun
