Hello Zeya devs and users:

I stumbled upon Zeya when looking for HTML5 web based audio streamers and
quite like the slick web interface. It's definitely an improvement from
Subsonic which requires flash to stream audio. Anyway, I'm interested in
adding an MPD backend to Zeya. I've been looking through the codebase and
don't think it'd be entirely hard to do. MPD supports native web streaming
via ogg (streams to a URL) or can stream to a FIFO file (again in ogg) that
Zeya could serve with its web server in a similar fashion to how it's done
now.

I'm interested in using Zeya but only if it supports MPD. This provides
format streaming benefits (MPD supports more formats than Zeya currently
does) as well as simplified installation/maintenance since Zeya would use
MPD's library rather than keep its own.

Does anyone else on this list have experience with MPD or a desire to help
add this feature to Zeya? I'm open to discussing this in more detail if
there's interest.

Thanks for your time.
