MPD - Aktuellen Titel ansagen

Geschrieben von Eric Scheibler am 29.12.2018

Auf meinem Server läuft ein MPD, welcher für die Musikwiedergabe zuständig ist. Das folgende Skript für den Mac sagt den aktuellen Titel nach jedem Titelwechsel an. Es verwendet die bei Mac OS vorinstallierte TTS und versucht, die Sprache des Songtitels zu ermitteln.

# mpd: speak currently playing song after it has changed
#
# This script uses the mpd client mpc to watch for song changes on the running mpd server and speaks them aloud
# Song title language detection with https://github.com/Mimino666/langdetect
# It's written for Mac OS but could be easily adapted to Linux as well (change tts_command variable)
