I finally understand! The people who wrote the mpd (music player daemon) and the clients created a fully networked architecture for playing music where the DAEMON PLAYS THE MUSIC! This is not streaming media at all. The daemon has to be on your local machine which completely defeats the purpose of consolidating your music on a central server. I started all this because playing music off nfs mounts caused all sorts of problems when I put my laptop on and off the docking station (network interruption and nfs problems galore!). I can't for the life of me imagine why anyone would set out to architect it this way but its usless to me :( wcn -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
