Add support for the MPRIS2 protocol
It'd be great if we could have MPRIS2 as a output device to control MPD and display info
Does unstable label mean it got already implemented and should appear on stable relase soon?
No. It means it would need to be implemented in the unstable branch, if ever. Nobody is working on that, and I know nobody who's interested in implementing it. This is only the second time in 10 years MPRIS was ever mentioned. Given how complicated D-Bus and MPRIS is (and how unnecessary this complexity is), I don't think it's worth my time.
One more good thing that worth looking at is https://github.com/natsukagami/mpd-mpris
I would be nice to have this support actually built-in in mpd. Is it quite difficult to port the go code from https://github.com/natsukagami/mpd-mpris?
No Go code will be merged into MPD. For a simple feature like this one, it would add a huge amount of overhead (the whole Go runtime with its garbage collector and dozens of threads each consuming megabytes of RAM), and would complicate the MPD build.
@MaxKellermann Sorry, I think I got misunderstood. I meant to ask how hard it would be to port the specific go code to c. Not to actually use the code as is.
