Developers never, ever, ever look at this page. This is ranting grounds. If you don't have enough energy to sign up for a proper feature request, then why should any developer have enough energy to grant one?
- Album Covers - plans for how MPD should support fetching/storing/displaying album covers.
- Queue - plan for how MPD should/would/might implement queuing
- Add cue sheet (.cue) support (with FLAC+WV embedded cue support, see patch)
- Rotation and scheduled Playlists for Internet Radio (compare http://www.centova.com/docs/cast/centovacast_user_guide.php)
- Executable Songs - plans to make it possible to add scripts to the database and let them play like a normal track.
- Simple way to keep MPD from resuming playback on boot. (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mpd#Never_play_on_start)
- handling more audio-outputs at once, playing different music/audio on every output
- allow the user/client to set tags (flags) and be able to order by them.
- give MPD the optional ability to play a single file from some location on the filesystem outside of the music database.
- support and input plugins for .SID, .AHX, and hivelytracker filetypes.
- support .pls-playlists (or others) so it's possible to use playlists of radio-streams with titles
- support for metadata such as tracking play count, ratings for tracks
- music-based representation instead of file-based, ie. if there's the same album in FLAC and MP3 it's only shown once
- MPD should auto-discover pulseaudio output/sinks
- identify multiple concatenated vorbis tracks within an OGG and present as an album of tracks. (similar to cue-sheet support? alternatively, can cue sheets be embedded in OGG (or vorbis metadata?), and is there any precedent for that?
- Support for Microsoft Windows
