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

  1. Enable the MPD service by setting the value "enable" in "Enable/Disable Software - Mpd"

  2. Enable myMPD web interface by setting "enable" in "Enable/Disable Software - MYmpd"

  3. 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

  4. 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

  5. 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
