Serve Music Direct to iTunes
March 21, 2006
I found this simple tutorial on how to get a Linux server to serve your music collection direct into iTunes. It works exactly as it should. You open up iTunes and your music just appears.

Um. Have you tried putting videos on your music server? I’d be interested in knowing if iTunes can play obscure video formats (DivX etc) or if there are other clients that can access the music collection?
If so, then a living room computer that has MythTV, a large hard disk, and this software would be a very good thing (maybe?)…. I just wonder if there are Linux drivers for the Airport Express…

I just installed Fedora Core 5 on a new computer and opened up Rhythmbox. All the music from the iTunes share was listed. It didn’t quite play as it should but that is to do with missing mp3 codecs or something.
I am unsure about video. I don’t know if iTunes even handles video shares to other iTunes clients.
