Users have reported varying success in using MPoD together with Mopidy. Thus, - The user interface looks nice.
we've tested a fresh install of MPoD 1.5.1 with Mopidy as of revision e7ed28d
(pre-0.3) on an iPod Touch 3rd generation. The following are our findings:
- **Works:** Playback control generally works, including stop, play, pause, - All features exercised in the test procedure worked with MPaD, except seek,
previous, next, repeat, random, seek, and volume control. which I didn't figure out to do.
- **Bug:** Search does not work, neither in the artist, album, or song - Search only works in the "Browse" tab, and not under in the "Artist",
tabs. Mopidy gets no requests at all from MPoD when executing searches. Seems "Album", or "Song" tabs. For the tabs where search doesn't work, no queries
like MPoD only searches in local cache, even if "Use local cache" is turned are sent to Mopidy when searching.
off in MPoD's settings. Until this is fixed by the MPoD developer, MPoD will
be much less useful with Mopidy.
- **Bug:** When adding another playlist to the current playlist in MPoD, - Single mode and consume mode is supported.
the currently playing track restarts at the beginning. I do not currently
know enough about this bug, because I'm not sure if MPoD was in the "add to
active playlist" or "replace active playlist" mode when I tested it. I only
later learned what that button was for. Anyway, what I experienced was:
#. I play a track
#. I select a new playlist
#. MPoD reconnects to Mopidy for unknown reason
#. MPoD issues MPD command ``load "a playlist name"``
#. MPoD issues MPD command ``play "-1"``
#. MPoD issues MPD command ``playlistinfo "-1"``
#. I hear that the currently playing tracks restarts playback
- **Tips:** MPoD seems to cache stored playlists, but they won't work if the
server hasn't loaded stored playlists from e.g. Spotify yet. A trick to force
refetching of playlists from Mopidy is to add a new empty playlist in MPoD.
- **Wishlist:** Modifying the current playlists is not supported by MPoD it
seems.
- **Wishlist:** MPoD supports playback of Last.fm radio streams through the MPD
server. Mopidy does not currently support this, but there is a wishlist bug
at :issue:`38`.
- **Wishlist:** MPoD supports autodetection/-configuration of MPD servers
through the use of Bonjour. Mopidy does not currently support this, but there
is a wishlist bug at :issue:`39`.
