Hi,

I created a tiny helper to skip forward/backward to next/previous album or folder in playlist  
(restarts the list if last album is currently playing)  
https://github.com/Stephanowicz/moOde-au...xtalbum.py  
  
Obviously this requires a playlist of local files with an apropiate folder structure  
eg. /xyz/Artist/Album1/Song123.mp3 .... /xyz/Artist/Album2/Song456.mp3  
...at least different folders are required  
eg. /xyz/abc/Song123.mp3 .... /xyz/def/Song456.mp3  
 
calling the script without argument skips forward - add 'back' for skipping backwards  
e.g python mpd_pl_nextalbum.py back  

You may use this with a remotecontrol and lirc  
In Your /etc/lirc/irexec.lircrc You may add smth like this:  

Code:

begin  
prog = irexec  
button = KEY_RIGHT  
config = python /var/www/addons/Stephanowicz/utils/mpd_pl_nextalbum.py  
end  

begin  
prog = irexec  
button = KEY_LEFT  
config = python /var/www/addons/Stephanowicz/utils/mpd_pl_nextalbum.py back  
end  

Chrees, Stephan
