Cannot install mpd

[Da Alchemist]

That mpd 1.8.9 can not play Wave files is a bug in mpd itself, as one could see from this thread .
http://forum.musicpd.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=374

and there is an other issue, this Version of mpd can not read long File Names.

I'm sure this is solved but thought I'd comment with a tiny note as I also use TC for audio.

As an alternative for mpd I compiled DerMixD and seems to offer easier use than mpd.

You can see more on DerMixD here :

As I say, just a comment if it will help for anyone.

Thanks

Hi:
Are you planning to provide a .tcz extension from your DerMixd compilation?
I installed piCore 6.0 last night and discovered there is nothing in the repo to play mp3 or other sound files from a simple GUI.
I also would be happy if I could find out how to play sound files from the command line.

Will gladly, but sadly I haven't had luck in getting the TCZ thing on my side.

I think there's a mental block that I just don't seem to get working. So, perhaps someone could tell me how I simply create a TCZ from a live loaded system. For example. If I have the compiled DerMixD file in the folder /home/snb/dermixd/ how do I now get that to become a loaded TCZ? At the moment I include this path in the filetool.sh process so it puts the daemon back every reboot.

Sorry to not have a working TCZ ... But really keen to get this right and will gladly even open my system up for ssh access if someone can help us.

Thanks and hope to chat soon

Thanx - I never made a tcz. There is some info in the wiki. I will check it out.
