Music Player Daemon (MPD)

The mpd platform allows you to control a Music Player Daemon from Home Assistant. Unfortunatly you will not be able to manipulate the playlist (add or delete songs) or add transitions between the songs.

To add MPD to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
media_player:
  platform: mpd
  server: IP_ADDRESS
  port: 6600
  location: bedroom
  password: PASSWORD

Configuration variables:

• server Required: IP address of the Music Player Daemon, eg. 192.168.1.32
• port Optional: Port of the Music Player Daemon, defaults to 6600.
• location Optional: Location of your Music Player Daemon.
• password Optional: Password for your Music Player Daemon.

This platform works with Music Player Daemon and mopidy with Mopidy-MPD as used by Pi MusicBox.
