FYI, we are planning to use Logitech powered speakers, of course that has nothing to do with LMS.

Again a toy. How big are the rooms? What volume is required?

Powered speakers or passive? Cabeling? Raspberry Pis are wonderful toys but not suitable for productive environment. Search the Internet for flash card wear or power supply related issues and multiply by 14.

Better use PA equiment. Less trouble and costs in the long run.

Just add to your httpd audio output.

You have been warned PR is on its way.

I don't see any documentation. Example programs are documentation according to Mr. Barrière :( The library API is synchronous and thus cannot be integrated in MPD's event loop; this will cause a lot of trouble. And the library creates threads, which is not a good thing for a library to do. Ok, made...

Thinking about very basic Sonsos support with Jean-Luc Barrière's https://github.com/janbar/noson C++ library for MPD. Speakers play MPDs http stream and volume control. What is the correct way of implementing such a thing? Standalone output plugin or httpd mixer?

@novski> please post your mpd.conf

Adding some basic controlling capabilities for Sonos, Snapcast or Chromecast Audio to MPD would be nice. Volume, mute, add and play local MPD as streaming source .

forum.musicpd.org still links to mailing list.

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.
