Superb – I assume you’re working on a banana-controlled radio? And if not, why not? (Raspberries may go mushy too quickly).

Thanks for the writeup: I had previously made my own Raspberry Pi internet radio station tuner thingy as well. But being new to linux I really had a hard time figuring out what media player to use. I settled on MPlayer, but it seemed like a lot more effort than was needed. Your direction to use mpd & mcp (and alsamixer) was most appreciated: I’m streaming some stuff right now ;)
FYI, I use a MakeyMakey as my input device, it worked pretty well ;) If you have interest, you can see my results here : http://www.akeric.com/blog/?p=2043
Not trying to promote it on your blog, I just figured you may find it interesting too ;)
