* add draft ALSA input pluginSteven O'Brien2013-12-191-0/+28
I've created an elementary input plugin that plays sound from the soundcard, so you can use MPD to listen to anything connected to the line-in jack, or to Video4Linux FM radio cards that send audio through the soundcard. There has been a small number of posts here in the past requesting line-in input, so here is a first, simplistic stab at it. The patch adds a new sheme, alsa://, which causes mpd to play data read directly from a souncdard. It defaults to hw:0,0, but you can pass any ALSA device name in the URI. So, using mpc for example: mpc add alsa:// mpc play will play from device hw:0,0. To use a diffferent device: mpc add alsa://hw:1,0
