Info
Pymp'd is a frontend for mpd in the style of rhythmbox and itunes, written in python, with pygtk.
Pymp'd itself is not a music player, but is actually a frontend to mpd, a daemon for playing and managing music.
Many thanks go to mackstann for his libpympdclient.
Depends
- pygtk >= 2.6
- python >= 2.4
- mpd >= 0.11
- distutils for python 2.4

0.08 Release. 2007-04-28
Hai guys, here is a new release with a few minor changes. The trayicon tooltip looks a little nicer, now, and the GUI was revised a bit. In addition, the columns will now stay in the same order that they are moved to when pympd restarts. Pympd is in a mostly usable state (for me), so the releases are slow and in between. To get the release, check our sourceforge downloads page
0.07 Released. 2006-07-14
Ok, so, it may be a little late but it is muchos awesome. There are
two new submitted plugins from bkgood and michwill as well as overall
polishings. Check it out here.
Note: this is our first file release on sourceforge's public
mirrors, :-D

0.07 RC1 Released. 2006-06-09
This is the release candidate for the next version of pympd. It is a
very polished version with lots of improvements towards the GUI and
usability as well as in the plugin department. Hopefully there are
little to no bugs. When this release is confirmed to be usable by
enough people, then pympd will have an actual file release on the
main sourceforge mirrors.

Updates! 2006-05-29
I know it's been a while since we've posted here, but if you've
been following the svn repo, you may have noticed some new and
exciting stuff in pympd. To start with, there are some new plugins
(even a plugin to add a stopbutton to the player!). Additionally,
gnome-python-extras is no longer going to be a dependancy. That's
right, we are going to be distributing the trayicon module with
pympd to reduce the bloat needed to install pympd. Finally, version
0.07 should be expected within the next two weeks
(for real, this time). I'll probably go over all the new stuff when
it is released.
Oh yeah, I think that pympd might be making it into
Debian. Yay.

0.06.1! 2006-03-21
It turns out the previous version wasn't completely bug free.
Some bugfixes are included in this one, including the ability
to play streams. Also, fixed the configuration reader, the
displayed icons and updated the versioning.
If you wish to install pympd, you
must install it via the Makefile, not with setup.py.

Release of 0.06! 2006-02-11
Pympd 0.06 is released, it should be relatively bug free. Please be
nice to it.
Important: Note that you have to delete your old ~/.pympd/pympd.conf
for pympd to run. Additionally, if you wish to install pympd, you
must install it via the Makefile, not with setup.py.

A few updates 2006-01-15
Well, I've been working on pympd some more, as I promised
a release before the end of January. So far what's been
implemented: configurable keybindings, a new configuration
setup (using ConfigParser), and a rewritten audioscrobbler
plugin and queue plugin. I pretty much ripped off this
guy's design for the audioscrobbler plugin.
Screenshotty Goodness

Queueing Patch and Random Release- 0.05.2 2005-11-16
Fixed a small bug or two in the previous release. The plugin
spec is undergoing some changes, there is a new tabbed interface,
and a plugin for this up and coming queue patch is in the works.
Download the new release
0.05.2
You can grab the queue patch
here
This patch is against mpd-svn. Grab that and then grab the CVS
of pympd (also a bit buggy, probably)

FHS Standards Compliance - 0.05.1 2005-11-10
Supposedly there are some Standards, and now we should be compliant with them. This new release may be somewhat buggy, but it should be much more threadsafe, too. Try it out at your own risk.

I wish I could enumerate all the features of pympd here, but you'll
just have to content yourself with knowing that I say it's awesome.
Chromakode, of Felt Tip Gaim fame, has made an icon for pympd, it is
surely very badass, check out his stuff at
http://chromakode.blogsome.com. The website will be under
some construction over the next few days, so be sure to check back
to find out how to write your own plugins and see new screenshots.

0.05 Release Candidate 4! 2005-10-16
The release candidate for version 0.05 is out, features that weren't
added: Stream Support and Configurable Accels. Features that were
added: two new plugins, one to keep a log of MPD song changes and one
to start mpd when pympd is started. There are also a bunch of UI
changes and bugfixes. This is our cleanest version yet.

Well, when I said let us know, you really let me know you wanted an
installer for pympd. Thanks to andrewski, there is now a distutils

for the archlinux users out there.

Ported! 2005-08-06
We have now ported pympd to work with mackstann's libpympdclient2.
What's this mean for you? Faster database reading times of course!
We also have a new plugin in the works, a coverviewer. We should be
nearing release, so look sharp.

Site Online! - 2005-07-01
Welcome to the pymp'd development page. Updates will be posted here as the development progresses. Most of the links in the menu to the left are still inactive. I will activate them once I get around to setting up the respective portions of the website.
