[SOLVED] allow local mpd modifications without overwriting them

[Tim Curtis]

Hi,

I love this system and its great hardware integration!

One thing that I'd like to do is modify the mpd config file (/etc/mpd.conf) without having my changes overwritten by the web interface.  This could easily be accommodated by including a line in the mpd.conf file.

From the mpd docs regarding their configuration file options:

You can use

Code:

include_optional

instead if you want the included file to be optional; the directive will be ignored if the file does not exist:
include_optional "may_not_exist.conf"

My use case is that I want to use the fifo plugin from mpd, but I don't see somewhere to set that up from Moode's exposed configuration settings.  Defining a file for additional mpd configuration that will persist through configuration writes from the Moode interface would be most excellent.

Thoughts?

What's your usage scenario for MPD FIFO?

If it's a generally applicable scenario you could make the case that a dedicated option should be added to Audio Config.
