So, Aleg, you were absolutely right about the "24 bits" issue... Let's hope someone will fix it one day... Meanwhile, I'll use the transcoded files...

That's something we're all waiting for, and already for quite some time so I wouldn't get the hopes too high.

It appears that those who developed the plugin and had said too maintain it, have dropped it completely.

My last problem to fix is that my set up only works if I first start the music player on the PHC-A100 (by selecting a random song and pressing stop again).

In my view this is the result of the standard audio output through HDMI whereas I use the SPDif (digital coaxial out). If this is causing the problem, how can I change this?

Thanks,

Just found the solution myself. If the case is your MPD client does not run stable, use the NMT community installer to do a full (deep) clean of your NMT. In my cast all hard drive content and settings of the NMT remained in place and after the install of MPD/ MPD audioplug in everything works stable, ie great stuff! Note that all my apps such as dropbear and telnetd were note installed anymore.

Will there be a update?

Hardly likely, nobody is maintaining the mpd for Popcorn anymore.

Hello,

I am trying to install this for the first time on my A-110. I am following the instructions on the first post. I am running CSI 2.7.0 on Windows XP.

The installation fails with the following:

cannot open /share/Apps//appinfo.json: no such file


I have been googling around and searching the forums but can't find a solution. It looks to me like the appname is missing or something.

This is the foll log:

Found hardware type: Syabas A/B type
Found hardware type: Syabas A/B type


Application Initializer version 1.12

Any info is appreciated!

I did the install using the NMT community installer. All worked perfectly fine. Could this help?

[BSartist]

That's what I'm using. That's what CSI stands for and the output I provided is from that.

Fair enough, missed that one.

Although I was able to install the MPD without errors, it didn't run stable until I started with a (deeply) clean reinstall of my NMT. Did you start the installation from a deeply cleaned NMT?

[BSartist]

I havent. I saw referenced to that but was reluctant to since I didn't know if that could be destructive.

I did find another version with manual install instructions - by telnetting, untarring and running an install.sh. I did that. There were a couple errors but seems to be working. And it's only crashed once so far ;-)

Can someone please tell me how to create an empty database? I have installed mpd but it tells me there is no database. I have found references to running mpd with a --create-db switch but it's not working.

Thanx

It take a while for the mpd to process all music files,
For some reson it hangs when there is to many files so i put at first ~100 mp3s there after that i added about 1000 a time and refreshed.
worked here maybe it will work for you too.

i installed this on my a100, minion see the mpd server and songs, and i can start to play something. But, theres no music playing on the nmt nor on my pc? Where am i supposed to hear the music? i suppose on my tv?
NMT is connected via hdmi

I have compiled the latest version of MPD (0.16)'s, experts can grab it here (it's a binary, you'll need to replace the 0.15.x binary and plugin yourself), unfortunately, it does not seem to play nice with AlanH's latest plugin. I'm not seeing an explicit crash, but the server simply stops responding.

I have no idea where to start looking, I'm not sure if AlanH is still around.

Yes, he is. He is still visiting the forum daily

Thanks Shadowcode for compiling v0.16.

Just so I understand, alanH's latest plugin that you are referring to is the one he released on April 7, 2010, is that correct? See this post. It is supposed to be compatible with the April 7 April 4 git pull of MPD, but I imagine something must have changed in MPD since then.

I will give it a try and see what happens.

Thanks.
