CpuSet Feature While Using Upmpdcli

Or set it to run after boot: 

#crontab-e
@reboot root sh [path to script file]/mpdpriority.sh

This will have the same problem with the current setup, as the script could be run before MPD has finished starting up... A workaround is to create a for loop (with sleep to throttle it down), and loop until pgrep returns a PID.

You are right - I can't get this to work after reboot, even with this: 
 

Code:

 
while ! pgrep mpd >> /dev/null ;
do
sleep 5
done

There seemed to be multiple mpd processes, so a loop was needed to catch them all:
 

Code:

 
pids=$(pgrep mpd)
for pid in $pids
do
chrt -r -p 99 $pid
cset proc --move  --threads --toset=user --force --pid=$pid
done
