ncmpcpp on ArchMerge


NCurses Music Player Client (Plus Plus) runs in a terminal. https://rybczak.net/ncmpcpp/ For the installation:

sudo pacman -S mpd sudo pacman -S ncmpcpp

after that:

mkdir ~/.config/mpd

then in your favorite text-editor in my case geany:

geany ~/.config/mpd/mpd.conf

and copy this simple configuration for Music Player Daemon (mpd):

####### MPD CONFIG ####### # Required files db_file "~/.config/mpd/database" log_file "~/.config/mpd/log" # Optional music_directory "~/Music" playlist_directory "~/.config/mpd/playlists" pid_file "~/.config/mpd/pid" state_file "~/.config/mpd/state" sticker_file "~/.config/mpd/sticker.sql" audio_output { type "alsa" name "mpd alsamixer-output" mixer_type "software" } audio_output { type "fifo" name "toggle_visualizer" path "/tmp/mpd.fifo" format "44100:16:2" } ####### END MPD CONFIG #######

after that in a terminal:

mkdir .config/mpd/playlist

Then type (again in a terminal):

mpd

ncmpcpp

and you are done!!
