Consider this a public beta test of the MPD packages; there's hardly any safety checking and if you install them in the wrong order, stuff would break.
If someone could take a look at both package's install & daemon scripts, I'd very much welcome some feedback. I never really write bash scripts for anyone but myself Tongue

I've made two packages;
MPD - MPD itself, the default output method is HTTP Streaming
MPDAudioPlugin - AlanH's audio plugin. If you install this it will overwrite the default MPD.conf mentioned above

Downloads:
Instructions on how to install both packages:
  1. Make a backup of your old MPD folder!!!
  2. Download both zip files.
  3. Open the Community Package Installer
  4. Click FIle -> Install From File and install "MPD.ZIP" first.
  5. Follow the instructions on screen.
  6. When finished, click File->Install From File again and install the MPDAudioPlugin.
  7. Follow the instructions on-screen. This could take up to 30 seconds (since sometimes MPD doesn't want to quit nicely).
  8. Let me know if it works and if I missed any steps.


Known Issues
  • Once installed, the package conflicts with the live MPD package. Do not update MPD using the update tab.
  • If you install only the MPD package you will have no audible audio output!! You need to install the MPDAudioPlugin as well! (read the instructions carefully).
  • USB-output support probably isn't included in this version of MPD.
  • For some people the MPDAudioPlugin will not install properly. Try reinstalling MPD and the MPDAudioPlugin. Or move your pre-existing MPD installation to another location and then reinstall the packages. Alternatively try stopping MPD using the Community Software Installer and then install the MPDAudioPlugin. If you're tech savy, please collect debug information and post your findings here, it helps a great deal because I can't reproduce the issues.

Uh oh, it doesn't work!
Bugger. I need the following files from you;
  • /share/Apps/mpd/.daemonresult
  • /share/Apps/mpdAudioPlugin/.setupresult
  • /share/Apps/mpd/var/log/mpd
Use http://pastebin.com/ or something.

@shadowcode a little questions from a Popcorn-A110 owner Tongue

  1. Is the CSI packages stable already ? can i use them as "first time i will try to install MPD" method ?
  2. I read somewhere in the forum that Ger Teunis will try to add this CSI packages to the repositories ? Any news ?
  3. Why do i need MPDAudioPlugin ? Just to play Flac Files ?
  4. Is possible with MPD to search by ID3 tags ?
  5. MPDScribble still works ? Anyone using ? The is something similar to get last.fm streams played on MPD ?
  6. Can i play a playlist in "suffle" mode with MPD ?
  7. Is possible to play WMP streams like http://www.mega.fm/live/new_streammegafm.asx with MPD ? Maybe using plugins ?



My plan is to install MPD from this CSI packges and play around with Minion and only after i check everthing works fine then proced with MPDJB...

Any issues that i should know before i proceed ?
