Thanks to the holiday time, work has progressed on my project. All basic functions work well and the code has been cleaned up a lot. Also, I switched out the MO drive for one that is more compatible with . It seems those with a Fujitsu mechanism are the best bet.

Internally, it uses and each disc has an m3u file that lists the contents called playlist.m3u. This playlist is loaded into mpd each time a disc is inserted.

oshu,

At one point I wondered what would happen if I insert a disc that has a playlist file of internet streams instead of tracks on the disc. As is so flexible, it simply plays the streams, as long as there is internet access.

Accidental internet radio. Neat!

I've purged from my system and I've been running for a couple days now. So far I'm quite happy with it. I wrote a little 'currently playing' python script for i3blocks and I have cmus continuously running (and automatically started) in a screen session which I have in a i3wm scratchpad terminal (OFC easily accessible with a hotkey).

I knew ncmpcpp in my bones and the hardest part about this is teaching myself all the keys for controlling and navigating cmus, some of which I don't think make much sense.

I still have some things to figure out, like playlists, adding a random selection of songs, scrobbling, album art/visualizer (not important at all but would be fun), and maybe also http streaming. I believe cmus is going to work out just fine for me, I just have to get the hang of it.

POLL:

Do you mostly use music streaming services or do you still listen to music files on your laptop/PC? 🎧

(Edge case: streaming local music files from a media server you own - choose local files)
