I have 2 questions related to the data and data source for the oled/lcd displays.
1. How do i get the file type (flac,mp3,dsd) displayed on the oled/lcd? is there a simple mpd command for that or is it something more complicated? something like "bitrate" command to display the bitrate?
2. Why moode can't display the airplay data on the oled/lcd? only volumio 2 seems able to do that. Some people say it is because volumio exposes data from the player itself, whereas with moode you have to get data from mpd. Is that the case?
This is what i see in the configuration parameters of the script i am using:
Does it mean that there needs to be a sort of server file specifically written for moode, or that the design difference between the players does not make it possible for moode to have a moode_server.
It is not a big deal but would be nice to have airplay, or even bluetooth data on the display.

This is what i see in the configuration parameters of the script i am using:
Code:
# Music Source Parameters
MUSIC_SERVICE = safeget(config, 'SOURCE', 'source_type')
# Used by Volumio V1 and Moode
MPD_SERVER = safeget(config, 'SOURCE', 'mpd_server')
MPD_PORT = safeget(config, 'SOURCE', 'mpd_port')
MPD_PASSWORD = safeget(config, 'SOURCE', 'mpd_password')
# Used by Volumio v2
VOLUMIO_SERVER = safeget(config, 'SOURCE', 'volumio_server')
VOLUMIO_PORT = safeget(config, 'SOURCE', 'volumio_port')
# Used by RuneAudio
RUNE_SERVER = safeget(config, 'SOURCE', 'rune_server')
RUNE_PORT = safeget(config, 'SOURCE', 'rune_port')
RUNE_PASSWORD = safeget(config, 'SOURCE', 'rune_password')
