Yes, MPD will be available for LDLite on the March 31 release (v. 1.7). I've done some behind-the-scenes restructuring of how files get loaded and parsed in support of some other stuff, and the MPD support will happen easily. However, you will need (...) (26 years ago, 21-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
