now that I got mpd running and playing music, I am trying to import my playlists. The files I try to play are flac files.
To simplify things, I created a playlist with just one track (see below). My music is in /music/local/flac. The playlist is in /music/local/flac/00_playlists. I understand that the playlist must contain the paths relative to the music_directory specified in mpd.conf.
Code: Select all
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:431, Herbie Hancock - Watermelon Man
/Herbie Hancock/Cantaloupe Island/Herbie Hancock - Watermelon Man.flac
Here is the ls -l output for the directory, subdirectory and the file:
Code: Select all
drwxrwxrwx 1 mpd audio 131072 Nov 15 22:57 'Herbie Hancock'
drwxrwxrwx 1 mpd audio 131072 Nov 15 22:57 'Cantaloupe Island'
-rwxrwxrwx 1 mpd audio 51441810 Feb 6 01:16 'Herbie Hancock - Watermelon Man.flac'
This is the /var/log/mpd/mpd.log:

Thank you!
Here are the relevant parts of my mpd.conf

# An example configuration file for MPD.
# Read the user manual for documentation: http://www.musicpd.org/doc/user/
# or /usr/share/doc/mpd/html/user.html
# Files and directories #######################################################
#
# This setting controls the top directory which MPD will search to discover the
# available audio files and add them to the daemon's online database. This
# setting defaults to the XDG directory, otherwise the music directory will be
# be disabled and audio files will only be accepted over ipc socket (using
# file:// protocol) or streaming files over an accepted protocol.
#
music_directory "/music/local/flac"
#
# This setting sets the MPD internal playlist directory. The purpose of this
# directory is storage for playlists created by MPD. The server will use
# playlist files not created by the server but only if they are in the MPD
# format. This setting defaults to playlist saving being disabled.
#
playlist_directory "/music/local/flac/00_playlists"
#
# This setting sets the location of the MPD database. This file is used to
# load the database at server start up and store the database while the
# server is not up. This setting defaults to disabled which will allow
# MPD to accept files over ipc socket (using file:// protocol) or streaming
# files over an accepted protocol.
#
db_file "/var/lib/mpd/db"
#
# These settings are the locations for the daemon log files for the daemon.
# These logs are great for troubleshooting, depending on your log_level
# settings.
#
# The special value "syslog" makes MPD use the local syslog daemon. This
# setting defaults to logging to syslog, or to journal if mpd was started as
# a systemd service.
#
log_file "/var/log/mpd/mpd.log"
#
# This setting sets the location of the file which stores the process ID
# for use of mpd --kill and some init scripts. This setting is disabled by
# default and the pid file will not be stored.
#
pid_file "/run/mpd/pid"
#
# This setting sets the location of the file which contains information about
# most variables to get MPD back into the same general shape it was in before
# it was brought down. This setting is disabled by default and the server
# state will be reset on server start up.
#
state_file "/var/lib/mpd/state"
#
# The location of the sticker database. This is a database which
# manages dynamic information attached to songs.
#
sticker_file "/var/lib/mpd/sticker.sql"
#
###############################################################################
# General music daemon options ################################################
#
# This setting specifies the user that MPD will run as. MPD should never run as
# root and you may use this setting to make MPD change its user ID after
# initialization. This setting is disabled by default and MPD is run as the
# current user.
#
user "mpd"
#
# This setting specifies the group that MPD will run as. If not specified
# primary group of user specified with "user" setting will be used (if set).
# This is useful if MPD needs to be a member of group such as "audio" to
# have permission to use sound card.
#
group "audio"
