In order to stream music from foobar2k to your iPhone or iPod Touch. There are several things that need to be installed.
Below is my setup:
foobar2k v1.0
iPod Touch 2nd generation running firmware 3.0
Windows 7 Professional
Setup UPnP Server for foobar2k v1.0
- Download foo_upnp component from foobar2k official component page here.
- Upon extraction, copy foo_upnp into your foobar2k component directory. Eg: C:\Program Files\foobar2k\components
- Start foobar2k and go to the Preference page. The setting for UPNP component is located under Tools -> UPnP.
Purchase and download Plug Player from iTunes Store for $4.99.
* Despite many people giving unsatisfying comment about the app, it works just fine for me. None issue encountered. It works out of the box.
- After downloading it, simply launch the app and select 'foobar2000 Media Server' from the Select a Media Server section.
That's it! Now you can stream your music library directly from your foobar2k to your iPhone/iPod Touch.
