Overview
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ncmpc is a curses client for the Music Player Daemon (MPD). ncmpc connects to
a MPD running on a machine on the local network, and controls this with an
interface inspired by cplay.
Music Player Daemon (MPD) allows remote access for playing music (MP3,
Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, AAC, and wave files) and managing playlists. MPD is
designed for integrating a computer into a stereo system that provides
control for music playback over a local network. Read more at musicpd.org
How to compile and install ncmpc
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Download the ncmpc source code, then:
$ tar zxvf ncmpc-x.y.z.tar.gz
$ cd ncmpc-x.y.z
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install
Upgrading to ncmpc-0.11.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The syntax for the configuration file (~/.ncmpc/config) has changed, view the
manual page or the sample configuration file for details.
The old key binding to the select command (space,a) will result in a
conflict as the a key is used for the new add command in 0.11.0. The easy
solution is to delete your old key bindings (~/.ncmpc/keys), but you can use
the built in key editor to solve any key conflicts.
Usage
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ncmpc connects to a MPD running on a machine on the local network.
By default, ncmpc connects to localhost:6600. This can be
changed either at compile-time, or by exporting the MPD_HOST and
MPD_PORT environment variables, or by the command line options --host
and --port.
$ ncmpc --host=musicserver --port=44000
For more information please view ncmpc's manual page.
