Tree MendUs (tree-mendus-deactivatedaccount) wrote : [needs-packaging] Soma Suite - radio station suite streamer

URL: http://www.somasuite.org/about.php

Description:
Able to make broadcastings and broadcast schedules.
Suggestions had been made for the idea that soma (originally a simple play-list manager) could become a radio programme suite, which has;
- a player (somaplayer)
- software for deferred broadcasting,
- a more user friendly administration (somaadmin),
- documentation and
- distribution.

There are concepts to implementation ideas for additional features in the player.
Somadmin was straight away on line and advertised on radio.inventati.org/somadmin/

Users are able to find out new problems and to give implementation advice.

Uses GTK+2
Can be remotely controlled through SSL or clear-mode, as well as through TCP and UNIX socket.
It has a timeline and calendar, which shows all past, present and future broadcasts.

License: Not sure but is some sort of free.
I have sent them an email for confirmation.

Notes:
Made in Italy
some translation projects could be done at Ubuntu Translations.
Some installation packages (for debian) see downloads page and wiki (for debian i386 and AMD64)
Source code is available.
There is also a development version.
