Description Damien Cassou 2017-10-24 14:23:59 UTC
Is there any wish to make a grilo plugin for MPD (http://musicpd.org/)? MPD is great for many reasons, has been there for a long time and is still maintained. I would like Gnome Music to be able to stream MPD music. The only other MPD gnome-client (gmpc) is great but hasn't been released since 2011.

I don't see where grilo would fit in there. Even if you could browse the contents of the MPD library, grilo doesn't have any ways to control MPD.
Comment 2 Damien Cassou 2017-10-24 14:37:16 UTC
Are you saying that grilo's responsibility is not to play any content but only to search for it? Wouldn't gnome-music be able to play the music found by grilo (at least if the music is local)?

I don't know how MPD presents the media, but that would also mean playing the data locally, not remotely. If that's useful, then sure, but I would expect most users of MPD to be underwhelmed by this solution.
