Amarok 2.1 and Fedora 11 KDE

Howto get Amarok 2.1 to see your “iTunes” share, or mt-daapd in this case, also known as firefly.

Obviously we begin by installing Amarok ;-) .

I installed a bunch of stuff trying to get this to work, most of it avahi-related, but the thing that got it working was nss-mdns.

Install a bunch of stuff:

`yum install avahi-qt4 avahi-dnsconfd avahi-compat-libdns_sd kdnssd-avahi avahi nss-mdns libopendaap`

EDIT: you only need nss-mdns, double checked.

Don’t forget to open the port in the firewall.

open port 5353

open port 5353

Fire up Amarok and listen away! Takes a while before you see your share, but it will show up.
