For the people who like the fancy GUI of the Music Jukebox and the awesomeness of the MPD, I have made a wrapper for the mpc client and modified the default skin in the Music Jukebox to use the MPD player instead of the builtin one.

Try it on for size and tell me what you think.

Excellent! I was playing around with the same thing, but have limited time, and I was hoping for someone else to fix it.
Many thank's!

One thing find really cool thing with MJB + MPD is that you can use a browser on another computer (laptop/tablet) and have a nice gui for selecting music. Way nicer than any MPD Client I've found.

Another idea I have is to make the php based Music Album Browser to use mpd, since it apparently has this cool Cover Flow thing.
