View source for MPD Jukebox - Raspberry Pi

[[Category:Raspberry Pi]]
This guide will show you how to get Music Player Daemon (a SERVER that outputs to the pi audio, HDMI and regular, can be controlled locally or remotely) and Music Player Client to play music and command them from a terminal window or an MPD graphical client (to connect and control the music)
 apt-get install mpd mpc
setup mpd
 vi /etc/mpd.conf
setup these lines (just make the directory or file if it doesnt exist, use the touch command)
 music_directory
 playlist_directory
 db_file
 log_file
 pid_file
 state_file
 sticker_file
 bind_to_address (comment this line with a # at the start)
 port "6600" (uncomment this line, remove the #)
 user "pi"
 metadata_to_use (uncomment)
 mixer_type "software" (uncomment this line)
restart the pi
 reboot (dont use init 6)
start MPD on the pi, look for errors
 service mpd start
 (wait until its done)
 service mpd restart

Connect to mpd using a client on your main computer (I use Auremo MPD Client)
#download Auremo MPD Client (open source!)
#enter the ip in the setup for the pi
#click connect
