Can't define MPD as a media player

Configuration
1

Hi

I just installed Mopidy-MPD on an old RPi which is connected to my LAN. The installation seems to work fine, however, I can’t manage to add the MPD as a media_player.mpd entity to my HA. I added the following to my configuration.yaml:

media_player:
  - platform: mpd
    host: 192.168.0.42
    port: 6600

And in my HA log I get the following errors:

Logger: homeassistant.components.media_player
Source: components/mpd/media_player.py:133
Integration: Media player (documentation, issues)
First occurred: 5:10:44 PM (1 occurrences)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Anyone have ideas?

Thanks

The mpd integration works fine for me with mopidy, but maybe you can try the new custom component specifically targeted at mopidy and not mpd. Works very good over here so far.

I have the feeling your mopidy-mpd config doesn’t allow connections from anything bur 127.0.0.1
Change the host setting to 0.0.0.0

And yes, please give my mopidy platform a try :wink:
