:Linux Today beta tests new audio broadcast feature
Linux Today beta tests new audio broadcast feature
Jun 29, 1999, 00 :15 UTC (87 Talkback[s]) (6552 reads)

We need testers to listen to our first audio broadcast, served via streaming mp3.

To listen to the broadcast, you must have an mp3 player that is capable of listening to streaming mp3. The program mpg123 is very easy to install and use, and is recommended for listening to Linux Today broadcasts. First download and install your copy of mpg123. Once installed, begin listening with this command:

mpg123 http://linuxtoday.com/volt/streams/volt_1999-06-28.mp3

We are looking for feedback! Please submit your comments using the talkback feature below.

Keep an eye on the Linux Today homepage later today for an official announcement about Linux Today's latest new feature for the Linux community.
