MPD configuration that enables you to run the server from the userspace

And to stream music over HTTP so that you could listen it in a distributed fashion (from the office/school)

Uncomment the commented lines to stream music to the local audio output

Note that you can have more than one audio outputs enabled!

Where is my music?

music_directory "/home/mpdaemon/Music"
playlist_directory "/home/mpdaemon/.mpd/playlists"

You may require to touch those files

db_file "/home/mpdaemon/.mpd/mpd.db"
log_file "/home/mpdaemon/.mpd/mpd.log"
pid_file "/home/mpdaemon/.mpd/mpd.pid"
state_file "/home/mpdaemon/.mpd/mpdstate"

Run MPD from the userspace

user "mpdaemon"
bind_to_address "any"
port "49151" # use custom ports in your configurations, secure your ports with firewalls/routers and be more safe!
metadata_to_use "artist,album,title,track,name,genre,date,composer,performer,disc"

We need more lumber

input {
plugin "curl"
}

HTTP audio output

audio_output {
type "httpd"
name "192.168.0.17" #
encoder "lame" # optional, vorbis or lame
port "8000"
bitrate "128" # do not define if quality is defined
format "44100:16:1"
}

An example of an ALSA output:

audio_output {

type "alsa"

name "My ALSA Device"

device "hw:0,0" # optional

format "44100:16:2" # optional

mixer_device "default" # optional

mixer_control "PCM" # optional

mixer_index "0" # optional

}
