GENERAL
-------
IRMP3 is a multimedia audio jukebox for Linux. Normally it runs in
background and does not provide any screen output. IRMP3 can be used
to play mp3 files and has support for several input and display devices,
like IR remote controls, LCD displays and keypads. A flexible,
modularized source allows easy implementation of new functions.

FEATURES
--------
- Plays mp3 files and http streams (mpg123 required).
- Plays audio CD's and manages CD media load/eject
- Powerful configuration for easy customization.
- Playlist loadable from file or by recursively scanning dirs.
- Support for alarms, cron-triggered events.
- Can produce audible beeps for users without a display.
- Repeat single, repeat all and shuffle functions.
- Mixer support for volume, balance, bass and treble settings.
- Sleep timer with volume-fadeout.
- Support control with IR remote controls (LIRC required).
- Display status (song name, time, volume, etc) on LCDisplays (LCDproc
required).
- External keypad to control player (LCDproc required).
- Flexible, modularized source allows easy implementation of new functions
to developers.
OPTIONAL SOFTWARE
-----------------
IRMP3 does not handle everything itself but may use external programs
for it (e.g. for playing mp3 files). Depending on what you want to do,
you may require one or more of the following programs:
- mpg123 (for playing mp3 files or streams)
Version 0.59r or later is required (control_generic support
is required).
- LIRC (if you want to control your jukebox with an IR remote control)
Version 0.5.1 or later required.
- LCDproc (if you want LCD output or keypad input)
Version 0.4-pre6 or later required.
NOTE: version 0.4-pre9 appears to SEGFAULT when used with IRMP3.
version 0.4-pre8 does not have this problem.
- a utility to play soundfiles (.wav .au) on your system.
