DIY Ethernet Audio Receiver

Posted by michael on from the fly-by-wire dept.

geo writes "I created this site to describe my latest toy: a digital audio multicast receiver. LANPipe receives 16-bit, 44.1 kHz audio multicast from a PC based server. The server uses a Winamp plug-in, so LANPipe can play almost any source format (mp3, ogg, uncompressed). It even has a digital audio output. The receiver uses a custom CPU written in VHDL and implemented on a Xilinx FPGA. This was a fun project that is best appreciated by fellow hardware geeks."

    Excuse me for pointing out the obvious, but why not pick up a plain ordinary FM tuner and a phono-to-minijack lead? Then you can just plug it into your sound card.

    It would be neat?
