mpd frontend

Post by thenktor »

Hi,

I'm looking for a mpd frontend, that looks similar to the Amarok/Exaile style. Most important for me is the behaviour of the collection browser with a serch field that searches all tags (artist, album, title) and displays the result as tree with drag and drop support. I don't like the rythmbox style of searching the library.

Is there anything out there?

Tried Sonata? It doesnt have an exaile/amarok style sorting, but the search in any tag feature is what keeps me using it.

Yes, but it does not provide fast drag and drop in the search results, e.g. if I enter "metallica master" it shows a list of songs for this search criteria, but how would I quickly add the "Master of puppets" album only to the playlist?
