peppy supports a client for controlling a Music Player Daemon server (also see the MPD wiki). This mode is being designed as an example of a non-file based mode, and as a urllib2 protocol that does not actually return a file-like object.

Features

• Search by pathname or genre or tag
• Drag-n-drop to reorder playlist
• Log in to password protected server

Usage

To connect to an MPD server, you can start peppy with a URL in the form of mpd://host[:port], for example:

python peppy.py mpd://your.mpd.server.com:6600

If a password is necessary, it will prompt you.

Or, you can use the Login menu item to login after a failed password attempt.
