Dear MPD-developers,
Lately I fantasized about a CGI like mechanism that is called when a song
changes for example. External programs can then be notified without listening
all the time, a push basis.
For example it can be used to:
- Log data about playing behaviour.
- Change the wallpaper of the system.
- Output playing information to an external device like a character LCD
display.
- Scrobble to last.fm like services.Anyways, I was not sure whether this was in the scope of the project and what other thought about it. But since it was an easy hack I've include a patch anyhow that supplies this functionality. An example program that uses the functionality can be found here: https://github.com/dopefishh/mpdcgilog Best, Mart
