Some clients have visual feedback for "database update is running".
Using the "database" idle event is unreliable, because it is only
emitted when the database was actually modified. This patch adds the
"update" event, which is emitted when the update is started, and again
when the update is finished, disregarding whether it has been
modified.
The smartstop feature is a way to tell mpd to stop playing after
current song.
This patche provides:
- 'state' command returns 'smartstop' state (1 or 0)
- 'smartstop' can activate or not the smartstop state
- when song is terminated, mpd stops playing and smartstop is set to 0
The move command now accepts a range for the first argument, in the same
form as other range commands, e.g. move 15:17 3. The first song in the
range is placed at the destination position. Note that as with other
range commands, the range is inclusive on the left only; this example
would move only songs 15 and 16, not 17.
[mk: fixed signed/unsigned warnings; use G_MAXUINT instead of
UINT_MAX]
The "sticker" command allows clients to query or manipulate the
sticker database. This patch implements the sub-commands "get" and
"set"; more will follow soon (enumeration), as well as extended
"lsinfo" / "playlistinfo" versions.
Over the years, a lot of commands have been added to MPD which were
documented only in the wiki
(http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Protocol_Reference). Merge all missing
commands from there.
The goal is to have one structured document which is the authoritative
protocol specification. The documentation which currently resides in
the wiki will be merged.
