[PROBLEM] Using roc-recv with Moode on the same device

[Matthias]

That's an interesting sync audio project. Do you know if it supports multicast addressing?

AFAIK you would need to kill the roc-recv player in order to release the ALSA interface for other players to use. It could be a feature request for the roc project to have the receiver release the interface after a timeout, similar to the -C option for Squeezelite.

I think it does support multicasting (see Advanced features).

Killing roc-recv releases the interface for mpd. I would like to avoid having start and stop it manually every time, though. Using “--oneshot” might work (thank you @steve4star), but that would probably still require me to restart roc-recv manually. 

I will ask the author of roc-recv if a behavior similar to Squeezelite would be possible.
