Otherwise, MPD will run as the user it was # started by. If left unspecified, MPD will not drop root # privileges at all (not recommended). # #user "nobody" # # The address and port to listen on. # #bind_to_address "any" #port "6600" # # Controls the amount of information that is logged. Can be # "default", "secure", or "verbose". # #log_level "default" # # If Zeroconf is configured, the service name to publish. This # should be unique on your local network, but name collisions # will be taken care of for you. # #zeroconf_name "Music Player" # ################################################################ ########################## PERMISSIONS ######################### # # MPD can require that users specify a password before using it. # You may specify one ore more here, along with what users who # log in with that password are allowed to do. # #password "password@read,add,control,admin" # # Specifies what permissions a user who has not logged in with a # password has.

You can # specify one or more here. If you don't specify any, MPD will # automatically scan for a usable audio output. # # See <http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Configuration#Audio_Outputs> # for examples of other audio outputs. # # An example of an ALSA output: # #audio_output { # type "alsa" # name "My ALSA Device" # device "hw:0,0" # optional # format "44100:16:2" # optional #} # # An example of an OSS output: # audio_output { type "oss" name "My OSS Device" device "/dev/sound/dsp" # optional format "44100:16:2" # optional } # # An example of a shout output (for streaming to Icecast): # #audio_output { # type "shout" # name "My Shout Stream" # host "localhost" # port "8000" # mount "/mpd.ogg" # password "hackme" # quality "5.0" # bitrate "128" # format "44100:16:1" # user "source" # optional # description "My Stream Description" # optional # genre "jazz" # optional # public "no" # optional #} # # Force all decoded audio to be converted to this format before # being passed to the audio outputs. # #audio_output_format "44100:16:2" # # If MPD has been compiled with libsamplerate support, this # specifies the sample rate converter to use.

If you don't specify one here, MPD will # pick one based on which ones it was compiled with support for. # # An example for controlling an ALSA mixer: # #mixer_type "alsa" #mixer_device "default" #mixer_control "PCM" # # An example for controlling an OSS mixer: # #mixer_type "oss" #mixer_device "/dev/mixer" #mixer_control "PCM" # # If you want MPD to adjust the volume of audio sent to the # audio outputs, you can tell it to use the software mixer: # #mixer_type "software" # ################################################################ ######################### NORMALIZATION ######################## # # Specifies the type of ReplayGain to use. Can be "album" or # "track". ReplayGain will not be used if not specified. See # <http://www.replaygain.org> for more details. # #replaygain "album" # # Sets the pre-amp used for files that have ReplayGain tags. # #replaygain_preamp "0" # # Enable on the fly volume normalization. This will cause the # volume of all songs played to be adjusted so that they sound # as though they are of equal loudness. # #volume_normalization "no" # ################################################################ ########################### BUFFERING ########################## # # The size of the buffer containing decoded audio. You probably # shouldn't change this. # #audio_buffer_size "2048" # # How much of the buffer to fill before beginning to play. # Increase this if you hear skipping when changing songs. # #buffer_before_play "10%" # # Similar options for the HTTP stream buffer.

In most cases it should be either # "ISO-8859-1" or "UTF-8". You must recreate your database # after changing this (use mpd --create-db). # #filesystem_charset "ISO-8859-1" # # The encoding that ID3v1 tags should be converted from. # #id3v1_encoding "ISO-8859-1" # ################################################################ ######################### OTHER OPTIONS ######################## # # Try disabling this if you have MP3s which appear to end # abruptly. If this solves the problem, it is highly # recommended that you fix your MP3s with vbrfix (available from # <http://www.willwap.co.uk/Programs/vbrfix.php>), at which # point you can re-enable support for gapless MP3 playback. # #gapless_mp3_playback "yes" # # Enable this if you wish to use your MPD created playlists in # other music players. # #save_absolute_paths_in_playlists "no" # # A list of tag types that MPD will scan for and make available # to clients. # #metadata_to_use "artist,album,title,track,name,genre,date,composer,performer,disc" # ################################################################
