Add audio_output FIFO to mpd.conf

[adrii]

Hi

I have written an OLED display for MPD-based players and I am trying to provide instructions for installing it on Moode.

Code: https://github.com/antiprism/mpd_oled
Demonstration video: https://youtu.be/6pgxGQIAX9s

The spectrum analyser reads data from an MPD FIFO, so I would like to add add an audio_output FIFO section to /etc/mpd.conf

Code:

audio_output {
        type            "fifo"
        name            "mpd_oled_FIFO"
        path            "/tmp/mpd_oled_fifo"
        format          "44100:16:2"
        #buffer_time     "500000"
}

Is it possible to make the FIFO survive MPD reconfiguration via the Moode UI?

Thanks

Adrian.

[ For RuneAudio, which also regenerates /etc/mpd.conf, I was advised that I would have to change the RuneAudio code to insert the FIFO configuration text when mpd.conf was regenerated, and I have provided a patch to do this as part of the installation instructions for that system. ]
