Xfce 4 Mpc Plugin

Xfce 4 Mpc Plugin is a powerful client plugin designed for Music Player Daemon. It uses libmpd headers and library for building, but if you don't have libmpd, it will connect with an internal socket interface. This software comes with a great collection of features that make it stand out from the competition. Among these features, you can send Play/Stop/Next/Previous commands to MPD with ease. Moreover, it uses gtk-theme media icons like nuvola, tango, and rodent themes, which offer excellent customization options.

One of the most convenient features of this plugin is that you can decrease/increase volume using the mouse wheel. Additionally, it shows the current volume, status, and title as a tooltip when passing the mouse over the plugin. You can also access a simple playlist window by performing a middle-click, which allows you to select a track to play. Furthermore, this software is compatible with various MPD host/port/password configurations.

The right-click menu is another remarkable aspect of the Xfce 4 Mpc Plugin. It toggles repeat/random features and launches configurable clients like gmpc, xterm -e ncmpc, and more. Xfce 4 is easy to install, and you have two options for building it. You can either use libmpd libraries or use plain old sockets with simple-libmpd. If you encounter any problems, you can recompile it with --enable-debug=full, add it to the panel, attach gdb to it, and report a bug with a complete backtrace. All of these characteristics make the Xfce 4 Mpc Plugin an excellent client plugin that is worth trying.
