All data between the client and the server is encoded in
|
|
UTF-8. (Note: In UTF-8 all standard ansi characters, 0-127 are
|
|
the same as a standard ansi encoding. Also, no ansi character
|
|
appears in any multi-byte characters. So, you can use
|
|
standard C functions like <function>strlen</function>, and
|
|
<function>strcpy</function> just fine with UTF-8 encoded
|
|
strings. For example: <returnvalue>OK</returnvalue> encoded in
|
|
UTF-8 is simply <returnvalue>OK</returnvalue>. For more
|
|
information on UTF=8:

A command returns <returnvalue>OK</returnvalue> on completion

or <returnvalue>ACK some error</returnvalue> on failure.

These denote the end of command execution.

<title>Command lists</title>

|
|
|
<para>
|
|
To facilitate faster adding of files etc. you can pass a list
|
|
of commands all at once using a command list. The command
|
|
list begins with <command>command_list_begin</command> or
|
|
<command>command_list_ok_begin</command> and ends with
|
|
<command>command_list_end</command>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
It does not execute any commands until the list has ended.
|
|
The return value is whatever the return for a list of commands
|
|
is. On success for all commands,
|
|
<returnvalue>OK</returnvalue> is returned. If a command
|
|
fails, no more commands are executed and the appropriate
|
|
<returnvalue>ACK</returnvalue> error is returned. If
|
|
<command>command_list_ok_begin</command> is used,
|
|
<returnvalue>list_OK</returnvalue> is returned for each
|
|
successful command executed in the command list.

<para>
|
|
Some commands (e.g. <link
|
|
linkend="command_delete"><command>delete</command></link>)
|
|
allow specifying a range in the form
|
|
<parameter>START:END</parameter> (the <varname>END</varname>
|
|
item is not included in the range, similar to ranges in the
|
|
Python programming language). If <varname>END</varname> is
|
|
omitted, then the maximum possible value is assumed.

<para>
|
|
For manipulating playlists and playing, there are two sets of
|
|
commands. One set uses the song id of a song in the playlist,
|
|
while another set uses the playlist position of the song. The
|
|
commands using song ids should be used instead of the commands
|
|
that manipulate and control playback based on playlist
|
|
position. Using song ids is a safer method when multiple
|
|
clients are interacting with MPD.

While a client is waiting for <command>idle</command>

results, the server disables timeouts, allowing a client
|

to wait for events as long as mpd runs. The
|
|
<command>idle</command> command can be canceled by
|
|
sending the command <command>noidle</command> (no other
|
|
commands are allowed). MPD will then leave

immediately; might be empty at this time.

Sets the threshold at which songs will be overlapped. Like crossfading but doesn't fade the track volume, just overlaps. The songs need to have MixRamp tags added by an external tool. 0dB is the normalized maximum volume so use negative values, I prefer -17dB. In the absence of mixramp tags crossfading will be used.

<para>
|
|
"Stickers"<footnoteref linkend="since_0_15"/> are pieces of
|
|
information attached to existing MPD objects (e.g. song files,
|
|
directories, albums). Clients can create arbitrary name/value
|
|
pairs. MPD itself does not assume any special meaning in
|
|
them.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The goal is to allow clients to share additional (possibly
|
|
dynamic) information about songs, which is neither stored on
|
|
the client (not available to other clients), nor stored in the
|
|
song files (MPD has no write access).
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Client developers should create a standard for common sticker
|
|
names, to ensure interoperability.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Objects which may have stickers are addressed by their object
|
|
type ("song" for song objects) and their URI (the path within
|
|
the database for songs).
