Thanks to the testing by the original poster (discussed off-list), I
think the code is now sufficiently stable. I used it now for some time
and didn't notice any serious issues. It's not yet perfect, but I think
it'd be good if the changes so far could be reviewed, before the
branches differ too much.
My changes are at git://randomsample.de/emms.git for review. In
summary, they deal with the following issues:
* Exclude videos from being handled by mpd (configurable via
`emms-player-mpd-ignored-extensions'). While mpd can handle those
when compiled with ffmpeg support, it can only play sound, so they
should be handled by other players.
* When calculating song numbers, deal with tracks in a playlist which
are not handled by mpd but by other players.
* New feature to display playing-time, bitrate, song number and other
data from a 'status' query.
Regards,
David
