Hi all,

I had the same problem that was described in post 109.
MPD installs correctly via CSI, but the mpdaudioplugin package fails to install.
Rebooting the PCH and retrying the install did not work for me.

What did work was the following:

Unpack the mpdaudioplugin.zip and the contained TAR file (using 7zip on a windows PC in my case).
Using samba or FTP access create the \share\Apps\mpdAudioPlugin folder and then copy the extracted files into that directory.

Using telnet, go into that directory and type:
sh setup.sh install

That stops the running MPD server, installs the plugin, then resarts the MPD sever.
That's it! Worked immediately from there.

Have fun!

Can anybody explain how to enable WMA and OGG support?
Do I need to recompile?


RE: Music Player Daemon (MPD) 2009-10-01 Re-Release - shadowcode - 01-05-2010 04:16 PM

If you took my packages, then OGG should already be enabled.
If it's not, then yeah, you will need to recompile and enable OGG support when ./configuring'ing

As for WMA, I don't remember seeing WMA support at all, so even if it's supported then I probably forgot to enable it.

I plan to build the latest version of MPD some time (but not anytime soon) to enable MMS streams and MusePack support.

Hello,

After connecting the NMT via USB to my PC (USB slave) and finally disconnecting again, the Apps are not restarted, i.e. MPD is not running after the disconnect. I checked several scripts and it looks like, that appinit.cgi runs on the occassion of the "Connect to pC" and stops all apps, but it does not run on the occasssion of the "Disconnect from PC", i.e. the apps are not restarted. Same applies to start_app.sh in /share.

Any ideas, how the restart of the apps can be handled?

Regards,

Steffen

Please also consider adding WMA (via FFMPEG) - I think many would appreciate it combined with MMS, including me of course. Smile

Would be nice if someone cross compiles ffmpeg first. I also wonder if the PCHA110 is able to transcode WMA fast enough. It's probably too slow.

I have read through this thread and the other ones, I just have 2 questions before I install it

1. How long does it take hte PCH to first index 16,000 songs?
2. Can it be setup to use a network share instead of the local drive for the music?

To answer both your answers in one sentence Wink:
I have over 30.000 and I don't really know, but guess it takes less than an hour, over a Wifi connection to my NAS which is mounted as a share on the NMT.

Perfect! Thanks.

One more:
I have my NAS set to spin down the drives when idle, if mpd is running all the time does your NAS ever spin down?

I don't know really because it is in a different room and it has several drives and is also used as fileserver.

In the opening post of this thread AlanH makes this statement:
"If you use a USB+Alsa audio device with MPD, you are welcome to use the supplied MPD server package plus your own config file and modules."

Does that mean that we would load the first file listed below and then we would need a different plugin than the second file listed below? I know that Gwillems Febreuary 2009 mpd package utilized ALSA and USB, is there a way to make these work together?

mpd-20091001.tgz
mpd-smp86xx_plugin-20091001.tgz

Thanks,
Ed


RE: Music Player Daemon (MPD) 2009-10-01 Re-Release - shadowcode - 01-15-2010 04:46 PM

You might be able to take the MPD package I made (and not install the MPDAudioOutputPlugin package) and then configure MPD in the same way as WillemH's MPD package. Just compare the config files, I suppose.
