How to load/play playlist with mpc

[nicwwd]

The penny finally dropped, maybe.

Are you asking can you program a remote control function to tell moOde to display a list of its playlists, to select a specific playlist, and to load it in the queue and start playing it?

Nope. Not with the current moOdeUI.

The man page for mpc ("man mpc") or the abbreviated list of commands output from "mpc help" tells you all there is to know.

Continuing my previous example, to load and play the playlist I created,

Code:

mpc load SillyWalks
mpc play

The named playlist has to exist. In the past, I've programmed FLIRC and similar controllers to select "Default Playlist" and "Favorites" using different buttons just because those playlists are predefined in moOde.
