# An example configuration file for MPD
# See the mpd.conf man page for a more detailed description of each parameter.
# Required files and directories ##############################################
#
# From this directory MPD will discover the available audio files and add them
# to the daemon's online database.
#
music_directory "~/music"
#
# This is the MPD internal playlist directory. This directory is not intended
# for preexisting playlists which were not created by MPD.
#
playlist_directory "~/.mpd/playlists"
#
# This is the database file. This holds MPDs audio file locations when the
# daemon is down.
#
db_file "~/.mpd/database"
#
# The log files for the daemon. Great for troubleshooting, depending on your
# log_level.
#
log_file "~/.mpd/log"
error_file "~/.mpd/error-log"
###############################################################################
# Optional files ##############################################################
#
# This file is required for mpd --kill, and some init script, usage.
#
#pid_file "~/.mpd/pid"
#
# This file contains information about most variables to get MPD back into the
# same general shape it was in before it was brought down. This file must be
# specified to utilize this feature.
#
#state_file "~/.mpd/state"
#
###############################################################################
# General music daemon options ################################################
#
# If the user option is set, MPD will attempt to drop root privileges when it
# begins. Otherwise, MPD will run as root, which is not recommended.
#
#user "nobody"
#
# The address for the daemon to listen on. Careful attention should be paid
# if this is assigned to anything other then the default, any. This option can
# deny access to control of the daemon.
#
# For network
#bind_to_address "any"
#
# And for Unix Socket
#bind_to_address "~/.mpd/socket"
#
# The port that is desired for the daemon to get assigned to.
#
#port "6600"
#
# Controls the type of information which is logged. Available options are
# "default", "secure" or "verbose". The verbose option recommended
# for troubleshooting, though can quickly stretch available resources on
# limited hardware.
#
#log_level "default"
#
# If you have a problem with your MP3s ending abruptly it is recommended that
# you set this argument to "no" to attempt to fix the problem. If this solves
# the problem, it is highly recommended to fix the MP3 files with vbrfix
# (available from <http://www.willwap.co.uk/Programs/vbrfix.php>), at which
# point gapless MP3 playback can be enabled.
#
#gapless_mp3_playback "yes"
#
# Enable this have MPD create playlists in a format usable by other music
# players.

# MPD supports many audio output types, as well as playing
# through multiple audio outputs at the same time. 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
#}
#

#audio_output {
# type "oss"
# name "My OSS Device"
# device "/dev/dsp" # optional
# format "44100:16:2" # optional
#}
#

# Force all decoded audio to be converted to this format before being passed
# to the audio outputs. By default, this option is disabled.
#
#audio_output_format "44100:16:2"
#
# If MPD has been compiled with libsamplerate support, this specifies the

#
#replaygain "album"
#
# Sets the pre-amp used for files that have ReplayGain tags, if enabled.
#

# "loudness".
#
