# mpd info screen

![mpd info screen preview image](https://git.seodisparate.com/stephenseo/mpd_info_screen/raw/branch/images/images/mpd_info_screen_preview_image.jpg)

A Rust program that displays info about the currently running MPD server.

The window shows albumart (may be embedded in the audio file, or is a "cover.jpg" in the same directory as the song file), a "time-remaining"
counter, and the filename currently being played
