# Music Player Daemon

|
|
Install, then run as user with all configuration files in ~/.config/mpd/.
|
|
|
|
Go down config list, copied from /usr/share/docs/mpd/ or something.
|
|
|
|
mpd-configure

# Problem solving
|
|
|
|
I couldn't change volume, so in mpd.conf I uncommented the pulse audio lines and restarted mpd. This allowed pulse audio output, which allows volume change via mpc.
|
|
|
|
Also, make sure the user mpd is part of the group pulse:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo adduser mpd pulse
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In the audio_output section, try setting the mix_type to "software", not "hardware".
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you're using alsa, check if the mpd user is part of the group 'audio'.
