Subsonic uses ffmpeg so we are tricking the symlink into using avconv. Remove the links to the default Subsonic packages sudo rm /var/subsonic/transcode/ffmpeg Install Subsonic transcoding tools for Ubuntu, this will work on 14.x, 15.x and later as long as libav-tools exists sudo apt-get install libav-tools xmp lame flac -y If you want to limit memory and change the port (the default is 4040) or add https, then add these values to the uncommented line (the one without the #) SUBSONIC_ARGS=' -port=8080 -https-port=8443 -init-memory=256 -max-memory=512'Ĭtrl+X, Y and Enter to save, you'll restart Subsonic after installing transcoding tools If you want to change the SUBSONIC port and memory adjust values in this line SUBSONIC_ARGS='-init-memory=256 -max-memory=512' Install Subsonic on Ubuntu and clean up afterwards sudo dpkg -i bĬhange the user Madsonic runs as (by default it's root) sudo nano /etc/default/subsonicĬhange SUBSONIC_USER to your main user (like htpcguides) SUBSONIC_USER=' htpcguides' If it does fail go here and click on Debian, a new page will pop up and right click b and use that URL instead of the bottom wget URL SUBSONIC=$(wget -q -O - | grep. If this doesn't work then let me know in the comments and I'll fix the mini script. Sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer -yĭownload the latest Subsonic debian package which works on Ubuntu.
