mpd config file /etc/mpd.cond should be customised, at least a path to
|
||
|
|
music directories (music_directory).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To use alsa sound output instead of pulse, activate the corresponding
|
||
|
|
part of mpd.conf and put comment on pulse part.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For security reasons, MPD runs as restricted user mpd, group
|
||
|
|
audio. Please consider that music_directory and all directories in the
|
||
|
|
path to it should be readable and executable either for user mpd or
|
||
|
|
group audio. IF you ask youself what should "executable" means to
|
||
|
|
a directory, it is a right to change into it. So a directory could
|
||
|
|
either belong to mpd user or belong to the audio group or be readable
|
||
|
|
for all (others). Directories and files beneath it should be accessable
|
||
|
|
the same way. Some examples for right permissions:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ls -l -d /mnt/mp3
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
readable by everyone
|
||
|
|
drwxr-xr-x 226 user users 16384 Mar 24 23:36 /mnt/mp3
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
readable by audio group
|
||
|
|
drwxr-x--- 226 user audio 16384 Mar 24 23:36 /mnt/mp3
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
readable by mpd user
|
||
|
|
drwx------ 226 mpd audio 16384 Mar 24 23:36 /mnt/mp3
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you would like to set up some independent directories, declare one
|
||
|
|
of it as music_directory and link others in it. Permissions for other
|
||
|
|
directories are to be set accordingly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
MPD will be bounded to the local address (localhost): If you would
|
||
|
|
like to control it over network , then change bind_to_address to the
|
||
|
|
network address. You can set password and the list of activities to
|
||
|
|
restrict control of MPD over network.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To start MPD at boot time, call as root:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
systemctl enable mpd
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If filenames or directory names don't display correctly, set the
|
||
|
|
character set (encoding) for the filesystem in mpd.conf.
