Music Player Daemon

Mailing list link on MPD website is broken. If MPD does not offer support through mailing lists any longer link should be removed.

Maybe this information is useful for someone. A large Swedish furniture store sells relatively cheap Sonos speakers with limited features (Bluetooth and microphone missing) called Symfonisk. In order to be able to listen to music via the Symfonisk without an internet connection, MPD can be configure...

Certificates for musicpd.org expired.

MPD server is for playing music. Audio interface is connected to MPD server. MPD clients (mpc, nmpc, gmpc, ario...) controling the server. No music here. My advice is to use ALSA on a headless server. Should work even with your ancient MPD ;) But have a look at MPDs release notes: you want to update...

expose database to MPD satellites.

Just look at the docs: post mpd.conf and verbose MPD output.

See https://www.musicpd.org/doc/html/user.h ... rting-bugs and https://www.musicpd.org/doc/html/user.html#mpd-crashes for relevant information. Good news: my MPD 0.22 from git on Debian testing plays Radio Prosto without any problems.

@marmite> convince Volumio, RuneAudio or PiMusic Box maintainers to update MPD component or use Raspian testing.

I also included album cover artwork.

Local album art support is quite new to MPD (end of 2018). Some clients support download from local http server eg MPDroid.

Not able to reproduce with Music Player Daemon 0.21.5 (v0.21.4-38-gcfe22502a) (Debian testing with x64 flavour) stop and pause working as expected. No increase in cpu load. Please consider updating MPD.

Stream plays ok on MPD from git and Debian testing. Consider updating.

EFI fun... Finally got Volumio2 in Virtualbox running. Might be useful for someone. VBoxManage convertfromraw --format VDI [filename].img [filename].vdi VBox Settings System -> Motherboard -> Extended Features: Enable EFI Boot HDD must be attached to SATA controller!

Volumio uses MPD under the hood? The Volumio website claims that Volumio can be controlled using MPD clients by emulating the MPD protocol, but I couldn't find any trace that it actually uses MPD for anything. If it does, does it ship with a supported MPD version? Recent image did not work as virtu...

I've not heard of any of the 4 pre-requisites to be able to compile from source, let alone if they are installed, pretty complicated stuff to get to play some music. Volumio - it is free (Android control app costs 2 or 3 bucks), open source, uses MPD under the hood and there are prefab images for y...

Missing libmpcdec-dev package?

@max> You're right. Found some note for my ancient multichannel audio interface and assumed it is valid for stereo too.

Or try to add to your audio_output

There is no automatic mono to stereo conversion in MPD. Give asound.conf a try:
