mpd.conf
# An example configuration file for MPD.
# Read the user manual for documentation: https://mpd.readthedocs.io/en/stable/user.html#configuration
# Files and directories #######################################################
#
# This setting controls the top directory which MPD will search to discover the
# available audio files and add them to the daemon's online database. This
# setting defaults to the XDG directory, otherwise the music directory will be
# be disabled and audio files will only be accepted over ipc socket (using
# file:// protocol) or streaming files over an accepted protocol.
#
#music_directory "$XDG_MUSIC_DIR"
music_directory "/run/media/alex/Data/media/music/"
#
# This setting sets the MPD internal playlist directory. The purpose of this
# directory is storage for playlists created by MPD. The server will use
# playlist files not created by the server but only if they are in the MPD
# format. This setting defaults to playlist saving being disabled.
#
#playlist_directory "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mpd/playlists"
playlist_directory "~/.config/mpd/playlists"
#
# This setting sets the location of the MPD database. This file is used to
# load the database at server start up and store the database while the
# server is not up. This setting defaults to disabled which will allow
# MPD to accept files over ipc socket (using file:// protocol) or streaming
# files over an accepted protocol.
#
#db_file "$XDG_CACHE_HOME/mpd/database"
db_file "~/.config/mpd/database"
# These settings are the locations for the daemon log files for the daemon.
#
# The special value "syslog" makes MPD use the local syslog daemon. This
# setting defaults to logging to syslog.
#
# If you use systemd, do not configure a log_file. With systemd, MPD
# defaults to the systemd journal, which is fine.
#
#log_file "$XDG_CACHE_HOME/mpd/log"
#log_file "~/.config/mpd/log"
# This setting sets the location of the file which stores the process ID
# for use of mpd --kill and some init scripts. This setting is disabled by
# default and the pid file will not be stored.
#
# If you use systemd, do not configure a pid_file.
#
#pid_file "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/mpd/mpd.pid"
#pid_file "~/.mpd/pid"
# This setting sets the location of the file which contains information about
# most variables to get MPD back into the same general shape it was in before
# it was brought down. This setting is disabled by default and the server
# state will be reset on server start up.
#
#state_file "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/mpd/state"
state_file "~/.local/state/mpd/state"
#
# The location of the sticker database. This is a database which
# manages dynamic information attached to songs.

###############################################################################
# General music daemon options ################################################
#
# This setting specifies the user that MPD will run as. MPD should never run as
# root and you may use this setting to make MPD change its user ID after
# initialization. This setting is disabled by default and MPD is run as the
# current user.
#
#user "nobody"
#
# This setting sets the address for the daemon to listen on. Careful attention
# should be paid if this is assigned to anything other than the default, any.
# This setting can deny access to control of the daemon. Not effective if
# systemd socket activation is in use.
#
# For network
#bind_to_address "any"
#
# And for Unix Socket
bind_to_address "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/mpd/socket"
#bind_to_address "~/.mpd/socket"
#
# This setting is the TCP port that is desired for the daemon to get assigned
# to.
#
#port "6600"
#
# Suppress all messages below the given threshold. Use "verbose" for
# troubleshooting. Available setting arguments are "notice", "info", "verbose",
# "warning" and "error".
#
#log_level "notice"
#
# Setting "restore_paused" to "yes" puts MPD into pause mode instead
# of starting playback after startup.
#
#restore_paused "no"
#
# This setting enables MPD to create playlists in a format usable by other
# music players.
#
#save_absolute_paths_in_playlists "no"
#
# This setting defines a list of tag types that will be extracted during the
# audio file discovery process. The complete list of possible values can be
# found in the user manual.
#metadata_to_use "artist,album,title,track,name,genre,date,composer,performer,disc"
#
# This example just enables the "comment" tag without disabling all
# the other supported tags:
#metadata_to_use "+comment"
#
# This setting enables automatic update of MPD's database when files in
# music_directory are changed. (Linux only)
#
auto_update "yes"
#
# Limit the depth of the directories being watched, 0 means only watch
# the music directory itself. There is no limit by default.

###############################################################################
# Symbolic link behavior ######################################################
#
# If this setting is set to "yes", MPD will discover audio files by following
# symbolic links outside of the configured music_directory.
#
#follow_outside_symlinks "yes"
#
# If this setting is set to "yes", MPD will discover audio files by following
# symbolic links inside of the configured music_directory.
#
#follow_inside_symlinks "yes"

mpv.conf
#
# Example mpv configuration file
#
# Warning:
#
# The commented example options usually do _not_ set the default values. Call
# mpv with --list-options to see the default values for most options. There is
# no builtin or example mpv.conf with all the defaults.
#
#
# Configuration files are read system-wide from /usr/local/etc/mpv.conf
# and per-user from ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf, where per-user settings override
# system-wide settings, all of which are overridden by the command line.
#
# Configuration file settings and the command line options use the same
# underlying mechanisms. Most options can be put into the configuration file
# by dropping the preceding '--'. See the man page for a complete list of
# options.
#
# Lines starting with '#' are comments and are ignored.
#
# See the CONFIGURATION FILES section in the man page
# for a detailed description of the syntax.

#
##### directories ######
##
## Directory for storing ncmpcpp related files. Changing it is useful if you
## want to store everything somewhere else and provide command line setting for
## alternative location to config file which defines that while launching
## ncmpcpp.
##
#
#ncmpcpp_directory = ~/.config/ncmpcpp
#
##
## Directory for storing downloaded lyrics. It defaults to ~/.lyrics since other
## MPD clients (eg. ncmpc) also use that location.
##
#
#lyrics_directory = ~/.lyrics
#
##### connection settings #####
#
mpd_host = /run/user/1000/mpd/socket
#
#mpd_port = 6600

#random_exclude_pattern = "^(temp|midi_songs).*"
#
##### music visualizer #####
##
## In order to make music visualizer work with MPD you need to use the fifo
## output. Its format parameter has to be set to 44100:16:1 for mono
## visualization or 44100:16:2 for stereo visualization. As an example here is
## the relevant section for mpd.conf:
##
## audio_output {
## type "fifo"
## name "Visualizer feed"
## path "/tmp/mpd.fifo"
## format "44100:16:2"
## }
##
## If the visualization on occasion diverges from the audio output, please set
## 'buffer_time' parameter of your audio output in mpd.conf to '100000' (100ms)
## or less to prevent that from happening.
##
## Note: If you're using Mopidy, an address of a udpsink gstreamer's output is
## also accepted. For example, the following section in mopidy.conf:
##
## [audio]
## output = tee name=t ! queue ! autoaudiosink t.
## ! queue ! audio/x-raw,rate=44100,channels=2,format=S16LE
## ! udpsink host=localhost port=5555
##
## will make localhost:5555 available as a source of data for the stereo
## visualizer.
##
#
#visualizer_data_source = /tmp/mpd.fifo
#
##
## Note: Below parameter is needed for ncmpcpp to determine which output
## provides data for visualizer and reset it at the beginning of visualization
## to synchronize with audio.
##
#
#visualizer_output_name = Visualizer feed
#
##
## If you set format to 44100:16:2, make it 'yes'.
##
#visualizer_in_stereo = yes
#
##
## Note: set below to >=10 only if you have synchronization issues with
## visualization and audio.
##
#
#visualizer_sync_interval = 0
#
##
## Note: To enable spectrum frequency visualization you need to compile ncmpcpp
## with fftw3 support.
##
#
## Available values: spectrum, wave, wave_filled, ellipse.
##
#visualizer_type = spectrum
#
#visualizer_fps = 60
#
#visualizer_autoscale = no
#
#visualizer_look = ●▮
#
#visualizer_color = blue, cyan, green, yellow, magenta, red
#
## Alternative subset of 256 colors for terminals that support it.
##
#visualizer_color = 47, 83, 119, 155, 191, 227, 221, 215, 209, 203, 197, 161
#
##
## Note: The next few visualization options apply to the spectrum visualizer.
##
#
## Use unicode block characters for a smoother, more continuous look.
## This will override the visualizer_look option. With transparent terminals
## and visualizer_in_stereo set, artifacts may be visible on the bottom half of
## the visualization.
#
#visualizer_spectrum_smooth_look = yes
#
## Use unicode block characters from "symbols for legacy computing". This
## improves the smooth look on transparent terminals by using special unicode
## chars instead of reversing the background and foreground color on the bottom
## edge of the spectrum. If it leads to a garbled output on the bottom edge of
## the spectrum, you can either change the font or disable this option.
#
#visualizer_spectrum_smooth_look_legacy_chars = yes
#
## A value between 1 and 5 inclusive. Specifying a larger value makes the
## visualizer look at a larger slice of time, which results in less jumpy
## visualizer output.
#
#visualizer_spectrum_dft_size = 2
#
#visualizer_spectrum_gain = 10
#
## Left-most frequency of visualizer in Hz, must be less than HZ MAX
#
#visualizer_spectrum_hz_min = 20
#
## Right-most frequency of visualizer in Hz, must be greater than HZ MIN
#
#visualizer_spectrum_hz_max = 20000
#
## Use log scaling for the frequency spectrum axes
#
#visualizer_spectrum_log_scale_x = yes
#visualizer_spectrum_log_scale_y = yes
#
##### system encoding #####
##
## ncmpcpp should detect your charset encoding but if it failed to do so, you
## can specify charset encoding you are using here.
##
## Note: You can see whether your ncmpcpp build supports charset detection by
## checking output of `ncmpcpp --version`.
##
## Note: Since MPD uses UTF-8 by default, setting this option makes sense only
## if your encoding is different.
##
#
#system_encoding = ""
#
##### delays #####
#
## Time of inactivity (in seconds) after playlist highlighting will be disabled
## (0 = always on).
##
#playlist_disable_highlight_delay = 5
#
## Defines how long messages are supposed to be visible.
##
#message_delay_time = 5
#
##### song format #####
##
## For a song format you can use:
##
## %l - length
## %f - filename
## %F - full filepath
## %D - directory
## %a - artist
## %A - album artist
## %t - title
## %b - album
## %y - date
## %n - track number (01/12 -> 01)
## %N - full track info (01/12 -> 01/12)
## %g - genre
## %c - composer
## %p - performer
## %d - disc
## %C - comment
## %P - priority
## $R - begin right alignment
##
## If you want to make sure that a part of the format is displayed only when
## certain tags are present, you can archieve it by grouping them with brackets,
## e.g. '{%a - %t}' will be evaluated to 'ARTIST - TITLE' if both tags are
## present or '' otherwise. It is also possible to define a list of
## alternatives by providing several groups and separating them with '|',
## e.g. '{%t}|{%f}' will be evaluated to 'TITLE' or 'FILENAME' if the former is
## not present.
##
## Note: If you want to set limit on maximal length of a tag, just put the
## appropriate number between % and character that defines tag type, e.g. to
## make album take max. 20 terminal cells, use '%20b'.
##
## In addition, formats support markers used for text attributes. They are
## followed by character '$'. After that you can put:
##
## - 0 - default window color (discards all other colors)
## - 1 - black
## - 2 - red
## - 3 - green
## - 4 - yellow
## - 5 - blue
## - 6 - magenta
## - 7 - cyan
## - 8 - white
## - 9 - end of current color
## - b - bold text
## - u - underline text
## - i - italic text
## - r - reverse colors
## - a - use alternative character set
##
## If you don't want to use a non-color attribute anymore, just put it again,
## but this time insert character '/' between '$' and attribute character,
## e.g. {$b%t$/b}|{$r%f$/r} will display bolded title tag or filename with
## reversed colors.
##
## If you want to use 256 colors and/or background colors in formats (the naming
## scheme is described below in section about color definitions), it can be done
## with the syntax $(COLOR), e.g. to set the artist tag to one of the
## non-standard colors and make it have yellow background, you need to write
## $(197_yellow)%a$(end). Note that for standard colors this is interchangable
## with attributes listed above.
##
## Note: colors can be nested.
##
#
#song_list_format = {%a - }{%t}|{$8%f$9}$R{$3%l$9}
#
song_status_format = {{%a{ "%b"} - }{%t}}|{%f}
#
#song_library_format = {%n - }{%t}|{%f}
#
#alternative_header_first_line_format = $b$1$aqqu$/a$9 {%t}|{%f} $1$atqq$/a$9$/b
#
#alternative_header_second_line_format = {{$4$b%a$/b$9}{ - $7%b$9}{ ($4%y$9)}}|{%D}
#
#current_item_prefix = $(yellow)$r
#

#
##
## Note: attributes are not supported for the following variables.
##
#song_window_title_format = {%a - }{%t}|{%f}
##
## Note: Below variables are used for sorting songs in browser. The sort mode
## determines how songs are sorted, and can be used in combination with a sort
## format to specify a custom sorting format. Available values for
## browser_sort_mode are "type", "name", "mtime", "format" and "none".
##
#
#browser_sort_mode = type
#
#browser_sort_format = {%a - }{%t}|{%f} {%l}
#
##### columns settings #####
##
## syntax of song columns list format is "column column etc."
##
## - syntax for each column is:
##
## (width of the column)[color of the column]{displayed tag}
##
## Note: Width is by default in %, if you want a column to have fixed size, add
## 'f' after the value, e.g. (10)[white]{a} will be the column that take 10% of
## screen (so the real width will depend on actual screen size), whereas
## (10f)[white]{a} will take 10 terminal cells, no matter how wide the screen
## is.
##
## - color is optional (if you want the default one, leave the field empty).
##
## Note: You can give a column additional attributes by putting appropriate
## character after displayed tag character. Available attributes are:
##
## - r - column will be right aligned
## - E - if tag is empty, empty tag marker won't be displayed
##
## You can also:
##
## - give a column custom name by putting it after attributes, separated with
## character ':', e.g. {lr:Length} gives you right aligned column of lengths
## named "Length".
##
## - define sequence of tags, that have to be displayed in case predecessor is
## empty in a way similar to the one in classic song format, i.e. using '|'
## character, e.g. {a|c|p:Owner} creates column named "Owner" that tries to
## display artist tag and then composer and performer if previous ones are not
## available.
##
#
song_columns_list_format = (20)[]{a} (20)[cyan]{b} (6f)[green]{nE} (50)[white]{t|f:Title} (7f)[magenta]{l}

##### colors definitions #####
##
## It is possible to set a background color by setting a color value
## "<foreground>_<background>", e.g. red_black will set foregound color to red
## and background color to black.
##
## In addition, for terminals that support 256 colors it is possible to set one
## of them by using a number in range [1, 256] instead of color name,
## e.g. numerical value corresponding to red_black is 2_1. To find out if the
## terminal supports 256 colors, run ncmpcpp and check out the bottom of the
## help screen for list of available colors and their numerical values.
##
## What is more, there are two special values for the background color:
## "transparent" and "current". The first one explicitly sets the background to
## be transparent, while the second one allows you to preserve current
## background color and change only the foreground one. It's used implicitly
## when background color is not specified.
##
## Moreover, it is possible to attach format information to selected color
## variables by appending to their end a colon followed by one or more format
## flags, e.g. black:b or red:ur. The following variables support this syntax:
## visualizer_color, color1, color2, empty_tag_color, volume_color,
## state_line_color, state_flags_color, progressbar_color,
## progressbar_elapsed_color, player_state_color, statusbar_time_color,
## alternative_ui_separator_color.
##
## Note: due to technical limitations of older ncurses version, if 256 colors
## are used there is a possibility that you'll be able to use only colors with
## transparent background.
