## Installation & Setup ## Installation & Setup
1. **Clone or copy the script** to a local directory (e.g., `~/Scripts/winamp-mpris/`). The project includes an XDG-compliant installer:
2. **Configure Credentials**: If you changed the default username/password in the plugin, update the `AUTH` variable in `winamp_mpris.py`.
### Running Manually
```bash ```bash
python3 winamp_mpris.py chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh
``` ```
### Testing and Debugging This will:
You can use `busctl` to interact with the MPRIS interface: 1. Install the script to `~/.local/bin/winamp-mpris`.
2. Install and enable the systemd user service `winamp-mpris.service`.
3. Start the bridge immediately.
### Logs and Monitoring
- **Logs**: `tail -f ~/.local/state/winamp-mpris/bridge.log`
- **Systemd Logs**: `journalctl --user -u winamp-mpris.service -f`
- **PID File**: `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/winamp-mpris.pid`
### Testing with busctl
You can manually interact with the MPRIS interface:
```bash ```bash
# Get playback status # Get playback status
busctl --user get-property org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.winamp /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player PlaybackStatus busctl --user get-property org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.winamp /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player PlaybackStatus
# Get current position (in microseconds)
busctl --user get-property org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.winamp /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player Position
# Send commands # Send commands
busctl --user call org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.winamp /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player PlayPause busctl --user call org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.winamp /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player PlayPause
``` ```
### Running as a systemd User Service
1. **Install the service file**:
```bash
mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user/
cp winamp-mpris.service ~/.config/systemd/user/
```
2. **Reload and Enable**:
```bash
systemctl --user daemon-reload
systemctl --user enable --now winamp-mpris.service
```
3. **Monitor Logs**:
```bash
journalctl --user -u winamp-mpris.service -f
