Mopidy-Autoplay 0.1.0

Start playing the last track when starting Mopidy.

Mopidy extension to automatically pick up where you left off and start playing the last track from the position before Mopidy was shut down.

Notice

There are some similar extensions which might suite you better:

• If you want to automatically play a playlist after start of the Mopidy service, use Mopidy-DefaultPlaylist.

• If you want to automate music playback based on the time of the day, use Mopidy-Auto.

• If you want to save the current playback state to be able to resume later, have a look at Mopidy-Bookmarks.

Installation

Install by running:

python3 -m pip install Mopidy-Autoplay

See https://mopidy.com/ext/mopidy-autoplay/ for alternative installation methods.

Configuration

Before starting Mopidy, you must add configuration for Mopidy-Autoplay to your Mopidy configuration file:

[mopidy-autoplay]
enabled = true

# Each of the following keys can take the value "auto" (without quotes),
# in which case the values active before Mopidy was stopped are used.

# Tracklist (uris = uri, ...; index = int)
tracklist.uris = auto
tracklist.index = auto

# Tracklist options (on|off|true|false)
tracklist.consume = auto
tracklist.random = auto
tracklist.repeat = auto
tracklist.single = auto

# Playback (state = stopped|playing|paused; time_position = [in ms])
playback.state = auto
playback.time_position = auto

# Mixer (volume = [0..100]; mute = on|off|true|false)
mixer.volume = auto
mixer.mute = auto

With this default configuration, Mopidy restores the queue (tracklist) with all the tracks from the time it was shut down. It restores all the settings, such as “consume”, “random”, “repeat” and “single”, sets the volume level and if it was muted and finally plays the track at the position mopidy was playing before it was shut down.

If you always want to play the last track, regardless if it was playing or muted before shutdown, use:

playback.state = playing
mixer.volume = 80
mixer.mute = off

If you always want to start with the same track, e.g. a webradio stream, add to the settings above:

tracklist.uris = http://icecast.radiofrance.fr/fip-hifi.aac
tracklist.index = 0
