1 # An example configuration file for MPD
2 # See the mpd.conf man page for a more detailed description of each parameter.
5 # Files and directories #######################################################
6 #
7 # This setting controls the top directory which MPD will search to discover the
8 # available audio files and add them to the daemon's online database. This
9 # setting defaults to the XDG directory, otherwise the music directory will be
10 # be disabled and audio files will only be accepted over ipc socket (using
11 # file:// protocol) or streaming files over an accepted protocol.
12 #
13 #music_directory "~/music"
14 #
15 # This setting sets the MPD internal playlist directory. The purpose of this
16 # directory is storage for playlists created by MPD. The server will use
17 # playlist files not created by the server but only if they are in the MPD
18 # format. This setting defaults to playlist saving being disabled.
19 #
20 #playlist_directory "~/.mpd/playlists"
21 #
22 # This setting sets the location of the MPD database. This file is used to
23 # load the database at server start up and store the database while the
24 # server is not up. This setting defaults to disabled which will allow
25 # MPD to accept files over ipc socket (using file:// protocol) or streaming
26 # files over an accepted protocol.
27 #
28 #db_file "~/.mpd/database"
29 #
30 # These settings are the locations for the daemon log files for the daemon.
31 # These logs are great for troubleshooting, depending on your log_level
32 # settings.
33 #
34 # The special value "syslog" makes MPD use the local syslog daemon. This
35 # setting defaults to logging to syslog, otherwise logging is disabled.
36 #
37 #log_file "~/.mpd/log"
38 #
39 # This setting sets the location of the file which stores the process ID
40 # for use of mpd --kill and some init scripts. This setting is disabled by
41 # default and the pid file will not be stored.
42 #
43 #pid_file "~/.mpd/pid"
44 #
45 # This setting sets the location of the file which contains information about
46 # most variables to get MPD back into the same general shape it was in before
47 # it was brought down. This setting is disabled by default and the server
48 # state will be reset on server start up.
49 #
50 #state_file "~/.mpd/state"
51 #
52 # The location of the sticker database. This is a database which
53 # manages dynamic information attached to songs.

61 #
62 # This setting specifies the user that MPD will run as. MPD should never run as
63 # root and you may use this setting to make MPD change its user ID after
64 # initialization. This setting is disabled by default and MPD is run as the
65 # current user.
66 #
67 #user "nobody"
68 #
69 # This setting specifies the group that MPD will run as. If not specified
70 # primary group of user specified with "user" setting will be used (if set).
71 # This is useful if MPD needs to be a member of group such as "audio" to
72 # have permission to use sound card.
73 #
74 #group "nogroup"
75 #
76 # This setting sets the address for the daemon to listen on. Careful attention
77 # should be paid if this is assigned to anything other then the default, any.
78 # This setting can deny access to control of the daemon.
79 #
80 # For network
81 #bind_to_address "any"
82 #
83 # And for Unix Socket
84 #bind_to_address "~/.mpd/socket"

86 # This setting is the TCP port that is desired for the daemon to get assigned
87 # to.
88 #
89 #port "6600"
90 #
91 # This setting controls the type of information which is logged. Available

93 # argument is recommended for troubleshooting, though can quickly stretch
94 # available resources on limited hardware storage.

96 #log_level "default"
97 #
98 # If you have a problem with your MP3s ending abruptly it is recommended that
99 # you set this argument to "no" to attempt to fix the problem. If this solves
100 # the problem, it is highly recommended to fix the MP3 files with vbrfix
101 # (available from <http://www.willwap.co.uk/Programs/vbrfix.php>), at which
102 # point gapless MP3 playback can be enabled.
103 #
