Music Player Daemon

26th of March 2019, 13:40h.

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.

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:

I also pinged the SBC ip from the laptop, it had no losses and avg 9ms turn around, so it's happy. Your network is not happy at all :roll: Turnaround on a recent ethernet network should by 1ms or less. What happens if you ping your default gateway? and it sent packets but then just sat there thinki...

"why are you doing it this way" :mrgreen: the networking bit is easy, but I've never set one up. (...) My SBC has a gigabit wired connection to my BT Modem/Switch/wifi hub. Network equiment and no network? :lol: Lets enjoy some rocket science. First connect Odroid hardware using Ethernetcable to sw...

I will control this via a network connected android tablet with GMPC on it. No GMPC for Android. Use MALP or MPDroid. https://www.musicpd.org/clients/ Minimal Ubuntu is the basic Ubuntu OS without a GUI desktop and available as a download here: https://dn.odroid.com/S905/Ubuntu/ I was told to use t...

@qwin> RTFM ;) Music Player Daemon (MPD) is a flexible, powerful, server-side application for playing music. (...) it can play a variety of sound files while being controlled by its network protocol. Looks like MPD is a kind of client server thingy. Server here you connect your storage and DAC. Netw...

You have to turn off PulseAudio. 1. Open the ~/.pulse/client.conf file to disable PulseAudio for the current user, OR Open the /etc/pulse/client.conf file to disable PulseAudio for all users. 2. Set the following attribute and ensure the line is not commented out: autospawn = no 3. Call pulseaudio -...
