It might be nice to mention you can setup a wifi accesspoint on your
damaged laptop (or if it is already in the network) and control MPD from
your phone/tablet/pc/etc.

Hallo Wayne Lawrence:
Hi,
I am new to MPD and wanted to ask if the following is possible and if so
how.
I have a laptop with a damaged screen which i want to install MPD on. I
want the software to randomly play the contents of my music directory
continously without any interaction as i want to use it as a background
music system.
I cant see how this can be achieved from the wiki (maybe me being a lilttle
blind) but am sure it is possible.
The most straightforward solution I can think of is to simply load your
whole library into the playlist and activate both the "repeat" and
"random" options causing MPD to play random tracks from the playlist
indefinitely.
This solution still requires manual intervention after a library update,
but, depending on how you manage your library you might be able to
script the addition of new files to the playlist.
