Do you want to connect to the mpd server or just read it's library and playlists. If you plan to connect to the server it would be best to write a network-class that handles all network connections. This would be nice to add last.fm/musicbrainz and similar stuff later on. Clementine uses a custom interface to QNetworkAccessmanager for that. best Max ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
