Andrew S. Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Has anyone ported this successfully? I appear to have it built but could do with a sample config file - I'm not sure about Mac core audio structure cf ALSA etc. Thanks Andrew Best Wishes Andrew Link to comment
ldolse Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 I've ported this on Leopard before but not snow leopard, this was back with mpd .14. The Mac version uses coreaudio, so you don't need to worry about ALSA. Coreaudio is also the bad thing about using OS X though, as you're still dealing with coreaudios src issues. OS X is a good way to familiarize yourself with mpd, but if you're serious about getting bit perfect sound and automatic sample rate matching your better off with Linux. My mpd.conf file only had the following lines uncommented: music_directory "/Users/myprofilename/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music" playlist_directory "/Library/mpd/playlists" db_file "/Library/mpd/mpd.db" log_file "/Library/mpd/mpd.log" error_file "/Library/mpd/mpd.error" I used Macports to port it over, not sure what you did. In my case with macports mpd.conf needed to be in /opt/local/etc, and the directories described above most likely needed to be created by hand - I know this is true for the Linux version, can't remember what I did on the mac before though. mpdPup maintainer Link to comment
Andrew S. Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 I have just decided to stay with Linux - much easier. Best Wishes Andrew Link to comment
