With the mpd 0.18.10 update m4a playback support went a way for me. In order to regain m4a playback support in mpd I had to enable ffmpeg support.
With this a number of other formats come along with it. Can others confirm m4a files are no longer found or play with the current mpd and that the attached diff brings back said support? Thanks.
