MyMpd
by franz159
myMPD is a lightweight MPD web client that runs without a dedicated webserver or interpreter. It's tuned for minimal resource usage and requires only very few dependencies.
myMPD is a fork of ympd (https://github.com/notandy/ympd). This fork provides a reworked ui based on Bootstrap 4, a modernized backend and many new features while having the same small footprint as ympd.
HOW TO USE MYMPD
Enable the MPD service by setting the value "enable" in "Enable/Disable Software - Mpd"
Enable myMPD web interface by setting "enable" in "Enable/Disable Software - MYmpd"
Configure MPD parameters in "Player Setting/MPD BitPerfect
Audiocard: select your dac
DSD: depending on how your dac supports DSD, select either DOP or native; leave it empty if your dac does not support DSD
levae everything else to suggested dfeualt values
open myMPD interface simply typing your Gentooplayer system IP address into your browser
note that a port number is not needed, since myMPD uses the default http port (port 80)
Example: http://192.168.1.30 Of course you need put out the IP adrress of your own Gentooplayer system
If a security warning is shown, you can proceed al the same until MYmpd interface is shown
proceed to update MPD database
select "Update/Update database" in the top-left from-down menu
the assumption here is that a folder containing some music has already been mounted either from a NAS on the network or or from a USB disk connected to the Gentoplayer system, so that myMPD can find automatically all tracks to be indexed into the database
please note that the update of the DB could take some time, depending on the number of tracks to be indexed
6. At the end of the MPD indexing process, you will be able to start listening to music using the various "tabs" below
Playback: it shows data of the track being played
Queue: to visualize and manage the reproduction queue
Browse: to browse music folders and subfolders
Search: execute queries to find tracks to be added to the reproduction queue or played
