MPD-Binding does not support percent command

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Configure MPD-Binding

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It should be possible to adjust the volume with a dimmer/slider.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Openhab 1.3
Debian GNU/Linux jessie/sid

Please provide any additional information below.

I have configured the MPD binding as follows:

openhab.cfg:

mpd:mpdeg.host=192.168.xxx.x
mpd:mpdeg.port=6600

my.items:
Switch MPD_EG "Musik Player" (Musik){ mpd="ON:mpdeg:play, OFF:mpdeg:stop" }

/* INCREASE:mpdeg:volume_increase, DECREASE:mpdeg:volume_decrease, 
PERCENT:mpdeg:setvol  */

Dimmer MPD_EG_Volume "Lautstärke" { mpd="PERCENT:mpdeg:volume" }
Dimmer MPD_EG_Volume2 "Setvol" { mpd="PERCENT:mpdeg:setvol" }

my.sitemap:
...
Frame label="Musik" {
    Switch item=MPD_EG  
    Slider item=MPD_EG_Volume
    Slider item=MPD_EG_Volume2
}
...

With this configuration, the switch works great.

If I use the slider, there are errors in the log:

12:15:40.308 INFO  o.o.b.mpd.internal.MpdBinding[:214]- executed commandLine

14:46:12.972 WARN  o.o.b.mpd.internal.MpdBinding[:133]- cannot find matching 
binding provider [itemName=MPD_EG_Volume2, command=70]

I've already tried everything I've found on examples in the demo and in 
presentations. Unfortunately, the error remains.

Maybe I've overlooked an error in my configuration, or it is a bug.

Thank you and best regards!

Hi Boris, the percentage feature is simply not (yet) implemented. Hence you've 
found a missing feature :-) Thanks, Thomas E.-E.

Hi Thomas,

thank you. I did not expected this to be an missig feature since there is a 
corresponding example on the presentation of openhab @ KNX Stammtisch NRW.

I would be very glad if the feature could be implementable.

Best regards.

ah, i see!

You're right, the volume value can be shown in percent that is what i meant 
with the PERCENT tag. The binding cannot (yet) receive percent values.
