This encoding plugin features a fixed-point mp3 encoder,
with faster encoding on architectures without a FPU.
Right now the encoder is limited to stereo and 16 bit depth.
The bitrate and sample rate can be modified in audio_output.
audio_output {
type "httpd"
name "My shine stream"
encoder "shine"
port "8000"
format "44100:16:2"
bitrate "320" # default: 128
}
Allows big-endian users to configure the fallback byte order to
little-endian. Without this setting, MPD assumes native byte order if
the CD drive can't decide.
The "loop_count" configuration parameter allows the user to set how
many times a module with backward loops shall loop. "0" (the default)
means a module is not allowed to use backward loops at all. "-1"
enables inifinite looping.
This patch allows the user to configure the mikmod decoder plugin to loop
modules. It adds a configuration parameter to the mikmod decoder called
"loop" which can be "no" (the old behaviour, default) or "yes" to allow
modules to use backward loops.
This plugin is cumbersome to support, now that MPD is migrating away
from GLib and the GLib event loop. It has no practical advantages
over the CURL plugin. Soup requires the bloated GType library.
Version 4 of my patch to add DSF support to the DSDIFF
decoder plugin.
This time I have taken a different approach and created a new
read_metadata function specific for reading DSF files. This saves an
indent (and for me a lot of indent nightmares) and also useful for
splitting the DSF and DFF decoders later on.
There are still a few lines which exceed the 80 character width limit by
a few chars. I was not able to stay within the limit and create (for me)
readable code.

To demonstrate the new I/O thread. libsoup is well-integrated into
the GLib main loop, which made this plugin pretty easy to write.
As a side effect, we have to initialize the I/O thread in all debug
programs that use the input API.
This patch fixes a typo in doc/user about playlist plugins.
Its in the top commit in my repository in a branch called 'doc_fix':

Using libffado, to play on firewire audio devices.
Warning: this plugin was not tested successfully. I just couldn't
keep libffado2 from crashing. Use at your own risk.
For details, see my Debian bug reports:

Added support for a new optional configuration setting for the httpd output
named "bind_to_address". Setting it to a specific IP address (v4 or v6) will
cause the httpd output to bind to that address exclusively. Supporting
multiple addresses in parallel is future work.
This implements the feature requests #2998 and #2646.
Did you ever accidently click "stop" while feeding a radio station?
This option sets the output device to "pause" to disable the "close"
method. It falls back to "pause" then, which is specific to the
plugin. Some plugins implement it by feeding silence.
