Add support for Mopidy #215

Open shaunmulligan opened 4 years ago

Describe the solution you'd like It would be great if we could add a Mopidy container that can be used and shared to all the rooms, with the ability to mount a USB drive with audio on it.

@shaunmulligan Are you specifically interested in Mopidy? Or would MPD work for you case as well? I am playing around with MPD right now, for other reasons. But I'm not yet clear on the differences between the two, and whether they are interchangeable. I did see this morning that one of the MPD clients I tried on Android said it is not compatible with Mopidy. From what I've read, Mopidy looks like an off-shoot of MPD.

Hello,

I'm also looking for a way to connect RadioDroid to BalenaSound (or boombeastic https://github.com/balenalabs/boombeastic/issues/59 ) My use case would be to cast webradios listed on https://www.radio-browser.info/ through RadioDroid Android application to a Raspberry Pi 2 model B (which doesn't have bluetooth support) https://github.com/segler-alex/RadioDroid/issues/936 RadioDroid seems to have MDP support.

Kind regards

I am not the OP, but Mopidy provides a websockets interface which makes it nice to control from a web UI. That would be one reason to use a Mopidy implementation over other mpd servers.

tbelaire commented 3 years ago

To follow up, since you can run Mopidy as either client or server nodes, it would be really nice to share configuration.
