NAME

       vipl - edit mpd playlist

SYNOPSIS

       vipl [host]

DESCRIPTION

       vipl allows editing the mpd playlist using your text editor. The current playlist will be brought up in the editor. Delete or rearrange
       songs as desired using the editor.

       You can also enter the name of a playlist, or part of the name of an album, artist, or song. Matching items will be added to the playlist.
       Streaming urls can also be entered.

       (If the perl String::Approx module is available, it will be used to handle typos, etc in the names you enter.)

       The currently playing song is marked with a ">" at the front. To change which song is playing, just move the ">" to a different song.

       If the hostname is omitted, the MPD_HOST environment variable will be used.

NAME

       mpd-dynamic - a dynamic playlist for mpd

VERSION

       version 1.120610

DESCRIPTION

       This program implements a dynamic playlist for MPD, build on top of the Audio::MPD perl module.

       MPD (music player daemon) is a cool music player, but it lacks a dynamic playlist. A dynamic playlist is a playlist that will change
       automatically over time. In particular, it will remove already played songs (keeping at most a given number of songs) and add new songs to
       the playlist so it never fall short of songs.

       Note that since mpd is a daemon needing no gui to work, "mpd-dynamic" is also a daemon. That is, it will fork and do all its work from the
       background.  This way, you can fire "mpd" and "mpd-dynamic" and forget completely about your music (especially since "mpd-dynamic" is a
       low-resource program): it will just be there! :-)

USAGE

	   mpd-dynamic [options]

OPTIONS

   General behaviour
       You can customize the usage of mpd-dynamic with the following options:

       -o[ld] <old>
	   Number of old tracks to keep in the backlog. Defaults to 10.

       -n[ew] <new>
	   Number of new tracks to keep in the to-be-played playlist. Defaults to 10.

       -s[leep] <sleep>
	   Time spent sleeping (in seconds) before checking if playlist should be updated. Default to 5 seconds.

       -d[ebug]
	   Run mpd-dynamic in debug mode. In particular, the program will not daemonize itself. Default to false.

       -e[ncoding] <encoding>
	   Print debug messages with this encoding. Since mpd-dynamic is meant to be a silent daemon, this option will not be used outside of
	   debug mode. Default to "utf-8".

       --version
       --usage
       --help
       --man
	   Print the usual program information

       Note however that those flags are optional: since "mpd-dynamic" comes with some sane defaults, you can fire "mpd-dynamic" as is.

   Ratings
       You can also take advantage of ratings if you want. With those options, songs need to have at least a given rating (or no rating yet) to be
       inserted: this way, you will only listen to your favorite songs!

       Ratings can be created / updated with "mpd-rate".

       Note that if you supply a non-existant rating db-file, the rating mechanism will be ignored. The following options control the rating
       mechanism:

       -r[atings] <ratings>
	   The path of a db file with the ratings per song. The keys are the song path (relative to MPD root), and the value is an integer (the
	   rating). Default to "~/.mpd/ratings.db".

       -m[in[imum]] <min>
	   The minimum rating for a song to be inserted in the playlist. Default to 4.
