Hi. I'd like to know if someone have an idea how to make a Mp3 jukebox. I mean I have an old 486 i'd like to convert. I wouldn't like it to be plugged with alot a cable (Monitor Keyboard mousse) I'd like it to be remotetly control by SSH (or any other way). I'd like it plays Mp3 from it's sound card (no steam, sound is played at the host computer). I already know how use Samba as a file server ans how to create a SSH server and run both of them a boot. I just don't know what mp3 Player I should use and how i'm gonna remotly control it.

My computer is a (VERY VERY VERY) old 486 sx running at 33 screaming Mhz. So I think it's really better to use a command line mp3 player. I read a lil bit abour mpg321 but I don't know enought about it.

Any suggestion?

You could try MP3 Blaster (located under Multimedia, in the MyDSL menu). It is a console based player that has a lot a features.

I think DSL requires a math coprocessor - it won't work on your 486sx. The processor may also be on the slow side.
