The Digital Media Center from RJB is a music player software with a range of features for playing digital music files.
RJB's Digital Media Center is a music player that requires dedicated hardware. This means that it runs as root, which can be very dangerous. While it does grab the X display and call stop and halt scripts, it should ideally be able to run as a non-root user, a challenge that the developers need to address in future releases of the software.
To install RJB's Digital Media Center, follow these steps: first, install an Nvidia Graphics Card. Next, plug the X10 or IRMan control module into Com1 and connect your computer to your television. Then, install RedHat 9.0, selecting "Server Install" and choosing the following packages: X Window System, Sound and Video Windows, File Server, Development Tools, and X Software Development. Remove Printing Support, Text-Based Internet Server Configuration Tools, and Web Server Administration Tools.
Create a directory for your media files, such as /usr/local/Media, and ensure that it exists before running the install script. The script will ask you to identify or create this directory and will create a symbolic link to it. Also, create a symbolic link for Cdrom to /mnt/cdrom.
Unzip/tar the DMC release in /usr/local as root, using the command "cd /usr/local tar zxvf dmc-releaseV2.0.tgz.tgz". If your system is an HP DEC, you need to copy the binary decvfdcmd from the original HP disk to /tmp. The install script will ask for this path.
Finally, run the DMC Install Script as root by typing "cd /usr/local/dmc/bin ./Install.sh" in the terminal. Follow the prompts and instructions to complete the installation process. Good luck!
