|
|
|
|
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
|
|
|
|

# Issues / TODO
|
|
|
|
- [ ] UTF-8 Non-ascii font support
|
|
- [x] Support for album art not embedded but in the same directory
|
|
|
|
## MPD Version
|
|
|
|
To get album art from the image embedded with the audio file, the "readpicture"
|
|
protocol command is queried from MPD, which was added in version 0.22 of MPD.
|
|
It is uncertain when the "albumart" protocol command was added (this command
|
|
fetches album art that resides in cover.jpg/cover.png in the same directory as
|
|
the audio file). This means that older versions of MPD may not return album art
|
|
to display.
