[SOLVED] upmpdcli and MPD

[eFeS]

Apparently, there should be some mpd running when upmpdcli is activated, but it is not. Is there a way how to set up Snakeoil so that I need not manually start mpd for upmpdcli?

Think I know what the problem is. Select MPD v21 as the player first, configure a ALSA output device, then save & start the player. Confirm MPD is working well.

Next, select upmpdcli, and it should auto start MPD now.

I'll figure out a way to fix this eventually. Not entirely sure this fix will be added in U8, but the above will get you started.

Thank you. The requence of steps you recommended solved the problem.
