[SOLVED] MPD

[agent_kith]

i am using the latest firmware - 20161002. when i click on update database, the words change from bright to dull and stays that way until i alter the machine in some way. a couple of times when i had made my music folder inaccessable by incorrectly mounting it, the words became immediately bright again. that's with v19 and git versions. v17 just started loading the files.

A potential cause is: mpd-v19 effectively is mpd-git (git is just the latest development while v19 is the stable release). So if it fails in these two release the problem could be upstream. I'd see if I can test this soon. Hopefully I can get my physical test machine up and running again.

Just in case. depending on your library size, MPD rescanning can take some time. One way to verify if it's working is to ssh into the machine, and run this:

Code:

ls -l /var/www/players/mpd-git/

The mpd database should be called mpd.db (could be wrong as I can't check this right now as I'm at work). Start the database scanning, then run this command every 10 seconds or so and see if the filesize is increasing. If it is, then it should be working.

I'd let you know later today if I can.
