AAC+ on ubuntu after installing liquidsoap-plugin-all #20

Closed AlReem closed 8 years ago

AlReem commented 8 years ago

Thanks for the package liquidsoap-plugin-all for trusty. It let me install all plugins in one shot. Can you please advise me how I will be able to configure an aac+ encoder? I saw another issue here in which it was recommended to use fdk-aac. Does this mean that I should be recompiling liquidsoap via the opam route?

Hi,

It should in theory be possible to activate the dynamic AAC+ encoder by compiling ocaml-aacplus and installing it on your system.

However, I'd recommend using opam to install liquidsoap. We actively maintain these packages and they should work fine on most linux and OSX systems.

Thanks toots. I have a related question. I have done the compilation using opam and have the binaries. I have a requirement to install it on multiple servers running the same OS. Is there any way that I can transfer the binaries and libraries without installing opam, do you think it would work? Sorry for asking this, I should have tried. However, appreciate your feedback if I get stuck in trying this.

This is not a easy thing to do but we have documented part of it here: http://liquidsoap.fm/doc-1.2.0/custom-path.html
