Pardon my ignorance, as I don't use mpd; from the output of "apt-cache show mpd" I had understood mpd to be merely serving up content, rather than actually playing it (like a ShoutCast server), if this isn't the case (serves up /control/ of playing the content?), then never mind. -- Ubuntu should add user 'mpd' to audio group upon install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105694 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
