NAME

       xmms2-mdns-avahi - announces XMMS2 via mDNS

SYNOPSIS

       xmms2-mdns-avahi

DESCRIPTION

       XMMS2  is  a  redesign  of  the  XMMS (http://xmms2.org) music player. It features a client-server model,
       allowing multiple (even simultaneous!) user interfaces, both textual  and  graphical.  All  common  audio
       formats  are  supported using plugins. On top of this, there is a flexible media library to organize your
       music.

       xmms2-mdns-avahi is the Avahi mDNS announcing client for XMMS2.  xmms2-mdns-avahi is designed to announce
       the presence of an accessible XMMS2 TCP socket if one is available.

       xmms2-mdns-avahi  offers a _xmms2._tcp service if, and only if, the XMMS_PATH_FULL enviornmental variable
       contains a TCP socket. This allows clients that support mDNS discovery to easily locate  and  connect  to
       this xmms2d(1) instance.

ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES

       XMMS_PATH_FULL
              A  complete  list  of  URL  paths  separated  by  ';' pointed to the xmms2d(1).  See IPC SOCKET in
              xmms2d(1) for details of possible values for this variable
