mpDris2

mpDris2 provide MPRIS 2 support to mpd (Music Player Daemon).

mpDris2 is run in the user session and monitors a local or distant mpd server.

Installation

Stable release

Download the latest release at https://github.com/eonpatapon/mpDris2/releases

tar zvxf mpDris2-X.X.tar.gz
cd mpDris2-X.X
./autogen.sh --sysconfdir=/etc
make install (as root)

From git

git clone git://github.com/eonpatapon/mpDris2.git
cd mpDris2
./autogen.sh --sysconfdir=/etc
make install (as root)

Logout/login from your session. Default prefix is /usr/local.

Configuration

By default, mpDris2 will try to connect to localhost:6600.

To set a different host or port copy the example configuration file /usr/[local]/share/doc/mpdris2/mpDris2.conf to ~/.config/mpDris2/mpDris2.conf.

Use the configuration to enable notifications and multimedia keys support (on the GNOME desktop).

You need also to set the music_dir option and have the Python mutagen module installed for mpDris2 to export covers paths in the MPRIS metadata.

Restart your session or mpDris2 after changing mpDris2.conf.
