DS Misc > control xmms from DS

#67649 - josath - Thu Jan 19, 2006 7:46 pm

This is very very alpha code, a quick hack of sgstair's udp test.
Basically, if you run linux on your desktop, you can use your DS to control XMMS (a media player, clone of winamp).

http://rorexrobots.com/ds/wifi_xmms_0.001.tgz
http://rorexrobots.com/ds/wifi_xmms_0.001_src.tgz

Also, the wifi_lib_test project was modified to compile with libnds.
You'll probably have to fiddle with the Makefile a bit to get it to compile for you. (if you use the source)

Usage:
1. Compile & run udp_test.c on your machine which has xmms running
2. Run wifi_test_xmms.nds on your DS
3. Connect to your AP (same as sgs's original wifi test)
4. Run "UDP Test" on the DS
5. Change the 'DestIP' if needed...it defaults to the gateway IP
6. Controls: (When in the 'UDP Experimenter' screen)
LEFT - Prev track
RIGHT - Next track
UP - Raise volume
DOWN - Lower volume
A - Pause
START - Play
SELECT - Stop
R - Toggle shuffle

NOTE: You need 'rexima' installed on your pc for volume control to work.
