Re: [Musicpd-dev-team] More flexible OS X output

 Hi all --
 
 I've been a happy mpd user for many years, and now I finally have an
 opportunity to contribute something.  Specifically, I'm setting up a
 retired G4 PowerBook as a living-room music server using mpd to feed
 an external USB DAC.  And I've found that mpd's OS X output plugin
 isn't quite as flexible as I like: there's no way to specify which
 audio device to use.  This is no big deal if everything runs the
 logged-in desktop user, but I'm running mpd as a system daemon started
 at boot, with a dedicated mpd user.  So it only connects to the Mac's
 internal audio hardware, not my nice USB DAC.

Hi!

sorry to resume this old thread but I don't seem to find anything newer on this
topic.

I am trying to use the latest version of MPD (0.16.8) on OsX Lion with an
external USB dac that is integrated my power amp.

Now, I am not very familiar with patches and recompiling on Mac so I'd like to
know if, in the meantime, the situation has evolved for MPD in MacOsX and where
can I find documentation on how to configure MPD to output to the USB DAC.

If the patch is still needed, is it working on MPD 0.16.8? Where do I find the
DAC audio device name to configure the patched MPD?

Thanks

It looks like the patch has made it into git, but not into a release so far. 
Seems like your best bet is compiling from git.

Regarding configuration, it looks like the device name is the name that OS X 
presents to the user, e.g. Internal Speakers.

Cheers
Rob

[Musicpd-dev-team] ...rebuilding of iraq 17/05/2012 (rdp)

2012-05-17 Thread Dr Faisal Adams








5/17/2012

Attention: Sir/Madam,

The Iraq American Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IACCI)is saddled with the responsibility 
of sourcing for companies from around the world to supply various Government Establishment 
including Government-sponsored Multi-purpose Co-operative Markets/Malls set up all over Iraq 
under the Iraq Development Program. This responsibility is required to be carried out transparently. 
Your company has been chosen for this purpose. Iraq’s Developmental Program is worth a stunning 
$100 billion - making it one of the biggest anywhere in the world - and is set to expand further, 
as more contracts are signed and projects drawn up. Frenzied activities surround hundreds of 
projects, worth billions of dollars, and spanning every single sector of Iraq’s rebounding economy. 
Iraq’s liberal, open markets - almost entirely free of restrictions - are helping construction sector 
activity. Below in this link are list of some of the firms that have profited from the re-building 
process in Iraq:

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/analysis-and-features/top-10-firms-profiting-from-iraq-469707.html

Meanwhile, more leading manufacturers and suppliers from across the globe are seizing lucrative slices 
of Iraq’s growing markets, and in doing so are helping positively to forge the future of the country. 
Benefits from all Iraqi sectors are set to increase further. The country's revenue generation potential 
- bolstered by abundant oil and other resources, as well as the long-term commitment of global donors 
to the rebuilding effort - is enormous. It can rival all other major regional economies. Despite the 
present security situation, many businesses are already successfully gaining strong foot-hold in the 
large under-developed and investment-hungry market. I will reveal more procedural information to 
you upon your re-confirmation of your participation/interest. Thank you and kindly respond via my 
email address or fax number below. 

Yours Faithfully,

Dr. Faisal Adams

Re: [Musicpd-dev-team] [OT?] MPRIS and MPD

2012-05-17 Thread Jeffrey Middleton
Seems kind of odd to talk about integrating with shiny new Ubuntu/Unity,
given the whole pulseaudio deal. Unless something has changed and I didn't
notice, Ubuntu uses pulseaudio, which runs per-user, so you can't really
get mpd to work right with log in/out without jumping through some hoops.
(Maybe, hopefully, I've missed something?)

[Musicpd-dev-team] Output effects

2012-05-17 Thread Bart Nagel
Is there any way to apply effects to MPD's output? I sometimes play 
guitar along to music and if I need to transpose or speed it up or 
slow it down I need to open another program. It'd be nice to just 
enable an effect plugin instead.

I imagine slowing down/speeding up is a whole different ball game from 
shifting the pitch, but just want to know what, if anything, of this 
is possible at the moment.
