Description MPD Service to play music at the space
Author(s)  Jan

What is it?

We have this awesome sound system at the space. It is attached to a raspberry pi running an instance of mpd (music player daemon). Please DO NOT change ANYTHING on the mixing desk, the amplifiers or unplug any cables. You may die.

Settings

  • IP: 192.168.0.50
  • Port: 6600
  • Password: none

How to use

You can control mpd using a media player client software. We recommend gmpc for Mausschubsers and ncmpc for the nerds.

ncmpc -h 192.168.0.50

MQTT Control

The MPD can also be controlled via MQTT. Therefore, we have a service running that translates MQTT messages into MPD commands. It's currently running on the PrinterBot machine (192.168.0.25), and the code that's used can be found at https://github.com/munichmakerlab/mqtt2mpd
