Server machine

The requirements on the server machine and the machine on which the import is done are the same. The requirements for these are:

• a working installation of mysql (postgresql support is in progress)

• vorbis-tools, including ogg and vorbis libs.

• Python

• Python bindings for ogg/vorbis (http://www.vorbis.com/download_unix.psp)

• Python bindings for mysql (or bindings for postgresql, psycopg.)

If you want support for mp3 you also need:

• id3-py (http://id3-py.sourceforge.net/) (Called python-id3 in debian)

• libmad (http://www.underbit.com/products/mad/)

• Python bindings for libmad, pymad. (http://spacepants.org/src/pymad/)

Client machines

The requirements for client machines differs between different client software, see each clients documentation respectly.

The common requirement for all clients is that they have to have access to the files through the path in the URI.
