MPD simply runs in the background playing music from its playlist. Client programs communicate with the MPD to manipulate playback, the playlist, and the database.

You can use your foxG20 as a remote player of your favorite music.

## Configure MPD to work with Daisy16 audio adapter

* Install mpd
<pre class="minicom">
apt-get install mpd
</pre>

* Stop mpd daemon
<pre class="minicom">
/etc/init.d/mpd stop
</pre>
