Formats probably are incompatible, but I would appreciate even on some information on how to tap in to audio on Mac OS X! osx ubuntu audio networking link | improve this question edited Aug 19 '09 at 17:40 Chealion 11.9k 3 19 38 asked Aug 19 '09 at 17:20 JtR 119 1 6 57% accept rate

I was working on a good solution to this earlier this year, but haven't gotten the best way. The first piece you will likely need isSoundflower. This will let you take the digital-out of your Mac, and loop it to a new digital-in source. The piece I'm missing is the best way to broadcast a digital input to another machine. It is probably possible to do this via ESounD,PulseAudio, or Jack, but I am not familiar with implementations of those, and this hasn't been my highest priority. Another route I was considering was using VLC, to somehow source the Soundflower as though it were line-in or mic input, and publish an audio stream, then connect to this stream from Ubuntu, i.e. athttp://192.168.0.2:8000. However you arrive at it, I hope that this answer has helped you fit one piece of this puzzle. link | improve this answer answered Aug 19 '09 at 18:15 maxwellb 673 2 8

Thanks for the link to Soundflower ... See, now I'm thinking of some legitimate uses (for myself) for this; at least, for Soundflower. Too bad I'm not a Mac. Must consult the great Oracle for something similar for Winders or Linux.– Adrien Aug 19 '09 at 19:40 PulseAudio supports linux and native win32 and you can probably configure it work like this. I can't find mac port of PulseAudio, but just older version called esound, which might work with PulseAudio. Thank you mpbloch!– JtR Aug 20 '09 at 6:03
