Minimserver, upmpdcli and MPD. Album booklet?
I am completely new to Minimserver. My main motivation for using Minimserver is its ability to support browsing classical music collections. I have used MPD (mainly in conjunction with ncmpcpp and MPaD as clients) for about three years and I am very happy with its stability and sound quality.
But its hard-wired, non-customizable system of tags is almost unusable for classical music. With Minimserver, upmpdcli and MPD, I have now managed to set up an ideal music server. Thanks to all developers of these great products! There is one open issue: when directly controlling MPD via MPaD (iOS), I can open the booklet of the currently playing album on an iPad (MPad relies on an HTTP server for displaying cover art and booklets, I have an HTTP server running on the same machine that runs Minimserver, MPD and upmpdcli). On a Debian laptop, I can run a simple script to fetch the booklet of the currently playing item. Is there a control point for iOS compatible with Minimserver that supports opening the booklet of an album? I have checked Linn Kinsky and mconnect and both do not appear to support this functionality. Thanks, nbpf PS By the way, mconnect also does not apper to support gapless replay: it sends single files to the renderer instead of full playlists! |
