[Rhythmbox-devel] I'm using speech recognition with rhythmbox, need help with install

[jeffslists <jeffslists intelligentjukebox com>]

Hi I'm new to this list and rhythmbox.  I'm going to add rhythmbox to my 
speech controlled jukebox system (http://intelligentjukebox.com) (Right 
now my jukebox works with 1500 cd's and has very high speech recognition 
accuracy - above 98% - using a hands-free, professional Crown PZM 
microphone.  I can call up and play any cd with just 3 commands.)

Rhythmbox looks like a great application.  I am considering adding a 
tcp/ip socket inteface the rhythmbox source code so I can communicate 
with the speech process in my jukebox system.  I'm going to send xml 
through the sockets.

First though I need help installing this app.  I've been using linux for 
six years as a server, but I don't have much experience installing user 
apps.  I really do not enjoy trying to install user apps on linux.  
Could I get a little help?  I don't know where to start.  I already 
tried installing some rpm's.  I am running Mandrake 10.1.  It might also 
help to mention I have a b.s. in computer science.

Thanks,
Jeff
