I don't think that you are missing anything. I think that emms-player-mpd.el just doesn't know about consume. You can send in a patch to fix this (... using something less dramatic than calling -connect each track) or you can wait for me to have a go. I personally don't use mpd at all, but I keep an mpd server running in the house to debug Emms stuff, so I should be able to figure it out eventually. If you are going to take this on, please ping the mailing list so that I know if I should be adding this to my TODO. thanks -- "Cut your own wood and it will warm you twice" _______________________________________________ Emms-help mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emms-help
