  1. So is anyone actually using #upmpdcli?

    Yes, I am quite aware that looks like a gibberish hashtag that means nothing, but I assure you, it's a very cool bit of software with a very horrible name. I have previously ranted about this weird proclivity among #MPD adjacent projects to just be as un-musical as possible when choosing a name.

    Anyways, this appears possibly questionable, license-wise, but this #OpenHome protocol setup seems much more feature-complete and designed with some actual use cases in mind, if you believe the pretty-impressive documentation though I have not done any real testing yet.

    For me, I've already observed that #snapcast works great for multi-room audio, so the acid test is, does #songcast work just as well? Even if it doesn't, we can still integrate snapcast with a few pipes.

    But that brings me to my question/idle comment, the docs say that it should have the sc2mpd package in their repo for said songcast setup, and it does not appear to be there. But it might be a different repo I need to install, still working on it.
