2009-03-26doc: updated ranged playlist commandsJeffrey Middleton1-6/+10
Clearly specified the format (song1:song2) for range argumentst, and added the range capability of the playlistinfo command.
2009-03-26doc: Fixed moveid descriptionJeffrey Middleton1-2/+2
moveid uses an index, not a songid, for its second argument
2009-03-17httpd: correct the encoder name in the example mpd.confJeffrey Middleton1-3/+3
It's called "vorbis", not "ogg".
2009-03-16solaris: new audio output plugin for Solaris /dev/audioMax Kellermann1-0/+32
2009-03-15httpd: new output plugin to replace "shout"Max Kellermann2-0/+83
Let's get rid of the "shout" plugin, and the awfully complicated icecast daemon setup! MPD can do better if it's doing the HTTP server stuff on its own. This new plugin has several advantages: - easier to set up - only one daemon, no password settings, no mount settings - MPD controls the encoder and thus already knows the packet boundaries - icecast has to parse them - MPD doesn't bother to encode data while nobody is listening This implementation is very experimental (no header parsing, ignores request URI, no icy-metadata, ...). It should be able to suport several encoders in parallel in the future (with different bit rates, different codec, ...), to make MPD the perfect streaming server. Once MPD gets multi-player support, we can even mount several different radio stations on one server.
2009-03-14doc: added "audio outputs" section to the user's manualMax Kellermann1-4/+277
2009-03-14pcm_resample: choose the fallback resampler at runtimeMax Kellermann1-0/+5
Even if libsamplerate support is enabled, compile the fallback resampler. When the user specifies the option "samplerate_converter=internal", it is chosen in favor of libsamplerate. This may help users with a weak FPU who don't want to compile a custom MPD from source, because the fallback resampler does not use floating point operations.
2009-03-12doc: added installation manual to the User's ManualMax Kellermann1-0/+47
Very small start..
2009-03-12doc: added skeleton for the user manualMax Kellermann1-0/+38
2009-03-03Add sticker list command.Eric Wollesen1-0/+15
[mk: merged memory leak patch; fixed indentation (tabs); fixed documentation typo]
2009-02-28pipe: new audio output plugin which runs a commandMichal Nazarewicz1-0/+13
[mk: adapted to new output plugin API]
2009-02-26mixer: Add "disabled" mixer_type.Avuton Olrich2-1/+5
2009-02-23Makefile.am: no recursive makefilesMax Kellermann2-30/+2
Recursive Makefiles are inefficient and error prone (no proper way to declare dependencies). Since there's no disadvantage in having one single Makefile, let's do it.
2009-02-13added the shufflerange commandRomain Bignon1-0/+3
This command shuffles a range of songs.
2009-02-13doc: use $(DESTDIR)Max Kellermann1-2/+2
Forgot the $(DESTDIR) prefix in the install-data-local target.
2009-02-13doc: generate API documentation with doxygenMax Kellermann2-1/+1427
When configured with --enable-documentation, use doxygen.
2009-02-04configure.ac: make DocBook processing optionalMax Kellermann1-1/+1
Disable the HTML documentation generator by default. Most users will pick it from the web site.
2009-01-26changed sticker names to be lowercase and without spacesRasmus Steinke1-5/+8
2009-01-25doc: chunk the DocBook HTML outputMax Kellermann1-6/+10
Create a HTML chunk of each DocBook chapter. Use the UTF-8 character set instead of docbook-xsl's ISO-Latin-1 default.
2009-01-19sticker: added guidelines for sticker namesRasmus Steinke1-0/+75
2009-01-19command: added "sticker" commandMax Kellermann1-0/+67
The "sticker" command allows clients to query or manipulate the sticker database. This patch implements the sub-commands "get" and "set"; more will follow soon (enumeration), as well as extended "lsinfo" / "playlistinfo" versions.
2009-01-19sticker: new library for storing dynamic information about songsMax Kellermann1-0/+4
"Stickers" are pieces of information attached to existing MPD objects (e.g. song files, directories, albums). Clients can create arbitrary name/value pairs. MPD itself does not assume any special meaning in them.
2009-01-18mapper: make the music_directory optionalMax Kellermann1-3/+4
Without a music_directory, MPD is an excellent streaming client.
2009-01-18mapper: make the playlist directory optionalMax Kellermann1-3/+4
2009-01-14allow ~/.mpd/mpd.conf as alternate config fileJérôme Quelin1-2/+2
mpd uses some additional files to work, such as pid_file, state_file, db_file, etc. when running mpd as non-root user, it is often that those files end in ~/.mpd in that case, we end up with 2 entries in a user's home, .mpdconf and .mpd - which clutters homedirs. this patch allows ~/.mpd/mpd.conf as an alternative to ~/.mpdconf, allowing for a cleaner homedir
2009-01-04don't exit after --create-dbMax Kellermann1-1/+1
Start the daemon after --create-db. This makes --create-db a flag which discards the old database and starts with a fresh one.
2009-01-01mixer: renamed mix_* options to mixer_*Max Kellermann2-8/+8
There is no reason to use the shortcut "mix" instead of "mixer".
2008-12-31Moving mixers to audio outputsViliam Mateicka2-15/+25
2008-12-28log: support syslog()Max Kellermann2-0/+5
Allow logging to syslog if log_file is configured to "syslog".
2008-12-28log: deprecated "error_file" optionMax Kellermann2-4/+0
Removed the "error_file" option. There is only one log file now. If a user wants to see only the errors, he should configure a log_level.
2008-12-24Fix a few problems with the huge mpdconf update. There's alot of shift here, ↵Avuton Olrich1-72/+86
mostly due to word wraps. This, also, improves on uniformity and clarity of the document.
2008-12-24doc: fix "playlistdelete" documentationMax Kellermann1-2/+2
"playlistdelete" takes a song position, not a song id. There are no song ids in stored playlists.
2008-12-20Remove obsolete http_buffer* stuff that went away with the new curl backend.Avuton Olrich1-8/+0
2008-12-20Huge mpdconf update.Avuton Olrich1-175/+198
Over time mpdconf has evolved and has been maintained and contributed to by many different folks at different times. Try to give it some unity. Attempt to clear up some language and make things crystal clear. Add more examples. Use tabs when it makes sense. Make better borders. Remove obsolete options. Try to put more defaults when it makes sense.
2008-12-20doc: clarify "user" setting (starting as root / unprivileged)Max Kellermann2-5/+8
The "user" option does not work if MPD is started by an unprivileged user.
2008-12-16man: document Unix domain socket configuration in the manualMax Kellermann2-0/+7
Additionally, add an example in mpdconf.example.
2008-12-08update: default to follow all symlinksAvuton Olrich2-2/+2
MPD 0.13 and older followed all symbolic links. Although this can be a security problem (as it has always been), 0.14 should offer the same default behaviour as 0.13.
2008-11-28update: added options which control symlink behaviourRaphaël Rigo2-0/+13
The configuration options "follow_outside_symlinks" and "follow_inside_symlinks" let the user control whether MPD should follow symbolic links in the music directory. [mk: converted variables to "bool"; moved configuration to update_global_init()]
2008-11-23command: added documentation for idle subscriptionsMarc Pavot1-0/+6
2008-11-23Makefile.am: include protocol.xml in source tarballMax Kellermann1-1/+1
Added $(DOCBOOK_FILES) to $(EXTRA_DIST). Don't include the generated protocol.html in the tarball.
2008-11-20doc: merged protocol documentation from the wikiMonika Brinkert1-31/+282
Over the years, a lot of commands have been added to MPD which were documented only in the wiki (http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Protocol_Reference). Merge all missing commands from there.
2008-11-20doc: rephrase descriptionsMonika Brinkert1-58/+62
Correct lots of grammar and spelling errors. Unify some phrases.
2008-11-20doc: improved XML decorationsMonika Brinkert1-118/+108
Wrapped keywords in DocBook tags where appropriate.
2008-11-20doc: process protocol.xml with xmltoMax Kellermann1-1/+13
Generate and install protocol.html if xmlto is available.
2008-11-20doc: fix "Repeat" typo in protocol.xmlMax Kellermann1-1/+1
The attribute value must be lower case: <arg rep="repeat">
2008-11-19doc: converted doc/COMMANDS to DocBookMax Kellermann2-325/+1064
The goal is to have one structured document which is the authoritative protocol specification. The documentation which currently resides in the wiki will be merged.
2008-10-31update mpdconf.example that shout ouput encoding and protocol settings are ↵Alam Arias1-2/+2
optional
2008-10-31replace tabs with space in shout audio_output exampleAlam Arias1-1/+1
2008-10-25Makefile.am: install documentationMax Kellermann1-3/+3
2008-10-22stored_playlist: send timestampsMax Kellermann1-0/+6
Send last modification timestamps to the client. This allows the client to see when another client modifies a stored playlist.
