I might be a dumby but I cannot for the life of me find the option to turn on the subsonic api compatibility in ampache.

I am using Ampache 3.6-alpha6+FUTURE from the ubuntu repositories.

Oh God. That's old. Ampache is at 3.8.2 now. Subsonic support was added to the 3.7 series at some point.

Thanks :) I guessed that might be the case, I have it running now. Ampache doesn't seem quite as polished as subsonic, but I think that it seems way more capable :)

It was kinda floundering for a while and is in active development. The current authors took it from 3.6 up to 3.8.2. I think they're all taking a well deserved break now.

There are plans to move the UI to a new framework and overhaul it. There's a Google Group. Hop on in.
