For spotify playlists or tracks. Uses a spt uri, so with mpc you can
add playlists with
mpc load spt://spotify:user:simon.kagstrom:playlist:3SUwkOe5VbVHysZcidEZtH
For Spotify tracks. Uses a spt URI, so with mpc you can play tracks
with e.g.,
mpc add spt://spotify:track:5qENVY0YEdZ7fiuOax70x1
mpc play

This makes FreeBSD detect libogg correctly. The '==' operator is an
undocumented GNU extension to test(1) and cannot be relied upon to
exist and do the right thing. POSIX mandates string comparisons to be
done using "test foo = bar".

"In mpd.conf, the "admin" permission covers updating the db and
killing mpd.
"Since there are quite some usecases in which the user can upload
music to the mpd's directory by means of anonymous FTP or so, it is
desirable that any user may issue a db update, while killing the mpd
should not be possible.
"I'd suggest to remove the db update from the admin group and either
add it to "control" or an own group."
With mono sound, jack_sample_size is smaller than frame_size (4 vs 2
bytes), and "space/jack_sample_size==0". That means mpd_jack_play()
will return 0, although no error has occurred.
Version 1.0.0 of the libao library added a new field to the
ao_sample_format struct. It is a char * named matrix. When
an ao_sample_format is allocated on the stack, this field contains
garbage. The proper course is to insure that is initialized to NULL.
NULL indicates that we do not want any mapping.
The struct is now initialized using a static initializer, and this
technique is compatible with all known versions of libao.
This fixes the following valgrind warning occuring on the first call of

I wanted mpd to play a mp3 stream from a music website. The stream is
only available to subscribers, which restriction is enforced through
normal http authentication. However, the URL I get from the website
is not the final URL of the stream, but a generic URL which points to
the real one through a redirect (code 301). Thus, I cannot predict
the final URL, and so I cannot use the username:password hack to force
the authentication, and mpd (libcurl on mpds behalf) fails to grab the
stream.
libcurl allows the option CURLOPT_NETRC to be set and then the
credentials can be stored in the good old .netrc file (in this case it
would be ~mpd/.netrc, of course). But mpd doesn't set this option. I
think it should.
