Hi, Roger.
I was going to suggest that a simple hack would be to create a script on your Mac to fire rsync and then mpc. Then I saw your comment "'mpc udpate[sic]' over SSH doesn't seem to work either".
I don't understand what you are seeing.
From my desktop I can either ssh into a moOde player and execute
or I can execute mpc from my desktop
Either way I get the message "Updating DB (#1) ...", where the number increments each time I execute the command and AFAICT the spinner always actuates. I haven't been making changes to the database between each try so I can't confirm that the library is actually updated.

Kent
