wmpdart is a simple mpd client that lives on the dock of some window managers such as WindowMaker and Shod and shows the album art of the currently playing song. It also shows the title of the song scrolling from right to left. When hovered, wmpdart shows two buttons.
Control:
- Clicking on the left button plays the previous song.
- Clicking on the right button plays the next song.
- Clicking elsewhere pause or continue the current song.
- Scrolling up increases the volume.
- Scrolling down decreases the volume.
To build just run make.
You'll need libjpeg, libmpdclient, and the xlib and libXpm X11 libraries.
To install just run make install.
If you find the album art thumbnail too pixelated, that's because of
wmpdart's naive scaling algorithm. If you want a more smooth miniature,
get stb_image_resize.h from nothings/stb
and compile wmpdart with -DUSE_STB.
