The guide of building process at Airtime’s Wiki was removed, so I recovered the text from an archive and replaced Liquidsoap’s Git with a legacy package as latest builds of Liquidsoap requires OCaml 4.02+, not included in Debian Jessie or Ubuntu less than 16.04 (xenial uses php7.0 so Airtime won’t install via packages)
This page is necessary to add AAC+ Support to Airtime

Installation
The compiled liquidsoap binary will now be present in liquidsoap-full/liquidsoap/src
On Airtime 2.3 and lower, run
|
sudo service airtime-liquidsoap stop
sudo cp liquidsoap-full/liquidsoap/src/liquidsoap /usr/bin/liquidsoap
sudo service airtime-liquidsoap start
|
On Airtime 2.4 and higher, run
|
sudo service airtime-liquidsoap stop-with-monit
sudo cp liquidsoap-full/liquidsoap/src/liquidsoap /usr/bin/liquidsoap
sudo service airtime-liquidsoap start-with-monit
|
Your new Liquidsoap installation is now done!
Testing
To test Icecast:
|
cd liquidsoap/src
./liquidsoap 'output.icecast(%vorbis, mount="test.ogg", sine())'
mplayer http://localhost:8000/test.ogg
|
To test direct soundcard output:
|
cd liquidsoap/src
./liquidsoap 'output.ao(sine())'
|
In both of the options above, you should hear a constant buzzing noise that is generated by the input sine wave.
